Given the current geopolitical climate, Iceland, Morocco, the United States, Colombia, Peru, Guatemala and Japan are among the top destinations for Spanish travellers, thanks to the sense of security they offer, their excellent flight connections and the wide range of local experiences available.
The current geopolitical instability and the closure of certain airspaces are causing adjustments and occasional cancellations on some routes between Europe and Asia. According to the Spanish travel tech company Passporter, this situation is leading travellers to rethink their trips and prioritise quieter destinations for this Easter, away from the Middle East, with better flight connections and a wide range of authentic experiences.
Likewise, the trend points towards places with favourable weather conditions in spring.
According to data released by the company, countries such as Iceland, Morocco, the United States, Colombia, Peru, Guatemala and Japan – whether via direct flights or via Europe – are among the international destinations attracting the most interest from Spanish travellers for this Easter.
Demand for destinations offering authentic experiences
Iceland stands out as one of the most attractive destinations for those seeking an immersive experience in the heart of nature. At this time of year, the country is in transition between the end of winter and the start of spring, allowing visitors to explore volcanic landscapes, geysers, waterfalls and glaciers in milder temperatures. Among the most notable experiences on offer are viewing the Northern Lights and visiting an ice cave inside a volcano.
Thanks to its proximity to Spain and excellent flight connections, Morocco remains one of the most accessible and attractive international destinations for an Easter break. The country invites you to immerse yourself in a unique sensory experience: strolling through the souks of imperial cities such as Marrakech or Fez, sleeping under the stars in the Sahara Desert after exploring its dunes in a 4×4, or enjoying the local cuisine overlooking the Atlantic.
For its part, the United States stands out for its variety of tourist attractions, making it a highly flexible destination for all types of travellers. Iconic cities such as New York attract those seeking urban, cultural and gastronomic experiences, whilst states such as Florida or California combine beaches and natural landscapes of infinite beauty.
Colombia continues to gain prominence amongst the most interesting Latin American destinations for the Spanish market. At this time of year, many regions of the country enjoy particularly favourable weather, with a lower chance of rain. Places such as Cartagena de Indias or Santa Marta offer the chance to discover the Colombian Caribbean and Tayrona National Natural Park. An experience that leaves no visitor indifferent is staying at a traditional coffee hacienda and taking part in a Colombian coffee tasting.
Peru also attracts great interest among those wishing to combine nature, history and ancient culture. Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley of the Incas are currently in a favourable climate, making visits and treks through the Andes easier. In addition to its extraordinary historical heritage, it also stands out for its internationally renowned cuisine.
For those wishing to experience Holy Week in a different cultural setting, Guatemala offers one of the most impressive experiences in Latin America. The celebrations in cities such as Antigua Guatemala are world-renowned for their spectacular processions and the traditional carpets of flowers and sawdust that decorate the streets. Furthermore, the country invites visitors to explore Mayan temples such as Tikal or to experience the ascent of some of its imposing volcanoes, such as Acatenango, from where it is possible to observe the activity of the Fuego volcano and enjoy one of the most spectacular sunrises in Central America.
Finally, one of the great attractions of travelling to Japan during Easter is that it coincides with the hanami season, the time of year when the cherry blossoms bloom. This natural phenomenon transforms parks, temples and cities into scenes of great beauty. Another highlight is enjoying a tea ceremony in Kyoto whilst wearing a kimono.
