Jonathan Merry, CEO of MoneyTransfers.com commented: “It seems highly possible that staycations may be on the cards for more Brits than ever in 2023, with the large majority of most popular tourist attractions amongst those surveyed being based right here in the UK itself. What many tourists may need to consider, however, is that the cost of accommodation in London, where many of the most popular tourist attractions are based, is more than double that of a night’s stay for two in the most popular tourist attraction, Niagara Falls.”
