About this report
Of all the holidays lasting over five days taken away from Germany, the majority (36.5%) are to the Mediterranean resorts scattered between Europe and Northern Africa. Notably, traditional Southern European Mediterranean resorts including those in Italy, Greece and Spain have actually lost their share of the German market to emerging Mediterranean resorts particularly those in Egypt and Turkey.
