As summer 2025 approaches, Americans are looking abroad for their next getaway, and some clear favorites are emerging. A new study by Kinglike Concierge reveals the top international destinations each U.S. state is searching for most when planning summer vacations this year.
Leading the pack is Greece, which claims the number one spot in nine states including Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Oklahoma, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Known for its postcard-perfect beaches, incredible islands, and iconic blue-and-white architecture, it’s no surprise Greece is dominating travel searches.
