Agoda Unveils Return Visitor Ranking of Asian Cities That Keep Travellers Coming Back for More
Digital travel platform Agoda has unveiled its latest Repeat Visitor Ranking, spotlighting the Asian city destinations that travellers just can’t resist revisiting. Based on booking data from the first half of the year, the ranking reveals the top 10 destinations with the highest number of repeat visitors. Topping the list are Bangkok, Tokyo, Seoul, Bali, and Osaka, each offering unique charms that keep travellers coming back for more.

These destinations prove that sometimes, a single trip just isn’t enough. Travellers often find themselves drawn back to their favourite destinations, whether it’s to explore more of what they missed the first time, revisit beloved spots, or simply soak in the familiar atmosphere. Agoda’s data shows that many travellers even return to the same destination multiple times within the first six months of the year, proving the magnetic pull of these unforgettable places.
Bangkok, the perennial favourite, continues to captivate visitors with its vibrant street life, world-class dining, and cultural landmarks like the Grand Palace and Wat Arun. Tokyo, in second place, attracts repeat visitors with its charming neighbourhoods, renowned culinary scene, and seasonal attractions like cherry blossoms and cultural festivals. The magnetic appeal of Seoul, rounding out the top three, lies in the draw of K-culture, shopping havens like Myeongdong, and historic sites such as Gyeongbokgung Palace.
Meanwhile, Bali, ranking fourth and often dubbed the “Island of the Gods,” enchants travellers with its serene beaches, lush rice terraces, and spiritual retreats. Completing the lineup of the top five is Osaka, with its reputation as Japan’s culinary capital, paired with its lively entertainment districts and proximity to Universal Studios Japan, makes it a must-return destination.
Andrew Smith, Senior Vice President, Supply at Agoda, shared, “There’s something magical about destinations that keep calling you back. Whether it’s Bangkok’s bustling markets, Tokyo’s futuristic vibe, or Bali’s breathtaking sunsets, these places have a way of leaving travellers wanting more. At Agoda, we’re thrilled to help people rediscover their favourite spots while making each trip even more memorable and rewarding.”
The ranking also highlights other popular return destinations, including Taipei (Taiwan), Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Da Nang (Vietnam), Johor Bahru (Malaysia), and Hong Kong filling out the top ten. Each offers its own unique mix of attractions, from culinary delights to cultural experiences, ensuring there’s always something new to explore.
