Published by Statista Research Department, Jun 6, 2024

The number of holiday visits abroad from the United Kingdom grew in 2023 over the previous year, after shrinking due to the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite this increase, outbound visits for vacation purposes remained below pre-pandemic levels, totaling around 55.53 million in 2023. That year, Spain, France, and Greece were the most visited holiday destinations by UK travelers, respectively.
