The Maldives is the most Instagrammed tourist hot spot right now

Most Instagrammed tourist spots

The Covid pandemic has brought about a new appreciation for travel. With various worldwide lockdowns bringing a halt to many holidays for Brits, a strong feeling of wanderlust is creeping in, with many of us eager to pack our bags and head to the next bucket-list destination.

Naturally, with Instagram becoming the new photo album for travellers, many draw travel inspiration from this social platform. We are in lockdown inside our homes, where we are using our phones more, and social media and digital usage has increased in the past year. 2020 has truly been a digital year as accessibility has improved and our desired holiday destination is just a click away. 

With more than 95 million photos uploaded on Instagram daily, our new research looks at the overall number of hashtags for tourist attractions.

The Maldives currently boasts 8.8 million hashtags and images uploaded to the photo-sharing website – more than any other tourist destination or attraction around the globe. 

France’s Eiffel Tower scooped second place, with 6.5 million photos shared on Instagram with the attraction’s hashtag, followed by Times Square in New York with 4.4 million images.

With limited options available for holidaying amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the Maldives has become the destination of choice for many, including influencers. 

While many holidaymakers decided to go on a staycation within the country, the Instagram profiles of many celebrities were filled with photos from their vacation in the Maldives, putting the island nation in the spotlight.

Closer to home in the UK, in our list of 20 must-visit tourist attractions, London offers some Instagrammable tourist hotspots. With Big Ben in sixth place with 3 million hashtags, followed by Tower Bridge in ninth place with 2.4 million and then Hyde Park in tenth place with 2.2 million hashtags.

Here is the full list of our top 20 list.

I cannot recommend MyBaggage enough

I cannot recommend MyBaggage enough! I was very skeptical at first but I am so glad I trusted them because the process was incredibly smooth & easy & affordable and now I have my luggage taken care of! I was afraid of the customs forms and the whole customs clearance dynamic but it was super easy and without any issues. They also have the best customer service: I have emailed them at midnight and got a response in 15 minutes. 1000/10 for MyBaggage

Absolutely delightful to work with drivers…easy to prepare and very convenient service. Such a relief for my 86 year old mother not having to worry about getting transport to pick her at the airport with the large amount of luggage.

Second experience was even better than the first - once I knew to take inventory *before* closing everything up. Seriously though, this is so smooth and heaps less expensive than alternative shipping options. DC>Sussex, England in 2 days! FL>Sussex in 3 days! Amazing.

Reliable, most affordable and efficient

We booked my baggage to pick up a box from Portugal and deliver to the UK. Even though I don’t think it’s guaranteed we received a call to tell us a two hour window of when the box would be collected. The service was extremely simple, printing off the labels and putting them on the box. The service took quicker than the expected time and was delivered safely to its address. We will use this service again.

Seriously well instructed and helpful. We sent a total of 5 boxes international and they arrived so quickly. And the tracking and customer support along the way was very detailed and helpful.

solid service would use again

everything was very smooth and instructions were clear and precise. My baggage arrived with no problems just a few days later. it was very good to have this service be so easy and convenient. Would use again! make sure you have access to a printer and tape, but they explain everything. the customs was very easy to fill out too.

Everything went as expected.

Easy and no bs shipping of luggage from US to Europe (Denmark). I was shipping my duffelbag back home after travelling in the US for a while. The bag arrived before the expected day, and the experience from purchasing, to customs handling, to shipping was perfect. Everything went as expected.
