For Indians, Summer Means Big Holiday Breaks At These Destinations Taking frequent short holidays has become common in India now, with almost everybody taking a short break whenever there’s a holiday that falls alongside the weekend. However, when it comes to Summer, as the heat becomes unbearable and also because children have their vacations, people like to take longer breaks, with many opting for foreign vacations.

Most families spend around Rs.8000 to Rs.10,000 for weekend trips, around Rs.25,000 to Rs.30,000 for domestic vacations, and around Rs 60,0000 to Rs.70,0000 for international destinations like Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore.

But surprisingly, when it comes to their favorite destinations, the choice of locations varies from city to city. Yes, that’s correct! Mumbaikars have different preferences from Delhiites.

For most Mumbaikars, Thailand was the preferred destination this summer
Most Delhiites traveled to Europe this summer
Those from Bangalore, Chennai and other two-tier cities, Singapore and Malaysia was the preferred destination
