Today the world of travel and tourism, is witnessing the rise of unscheduled trips and weekend getaways. Due to the time-demands created by work and pressure at work, people today go on holidays to get away from it all. The idea is to indulge oneself completely for a couple of days.
Thus, travelers are taking advantage of the availability of no-frills airlines, affordable hotels and find-and-seek websites to increasingly act on a whim. Making spontaneous decisions to go somewhere is becoming the norm, especially for the Internet generation which is used to doing things at lightning speed.
Another trend that has been on the rise is that of culinary tourism, which in recent years has emerged as one of the most popular niches in the world's tourism industry. This involves the pursuit of unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences, by the traveler.
Also worth mentioning is the emergence of dark tourism, particularly popular among western tourists. This includes sites of natural or man made such as Ground Zero in New York and prisons now open to the public such as Beaumaris Prison in Anglesey, Wales. One of the most notorious destinations for dark tourism is the Nazi extermination camp at Auschwitz in Poland.
