Kayak studied over 1.5 billion searches on the site to find the most-coveted destinations. And if you’re itching to get away from the cold, you may be happy to know that the top wallet-friendly travel spot was Guadalajara, Mexico.
“It’s actually an emerging destination,” Solomito said. “There’s a tequila train that will take you out to Tequila Country. You can do tequila tasting. It’s becoming extremely popular and almost akin to [going] on a wine vacation.”
