Posts about travel on social media are dramatically affecting people’s decision-making about the experiences they choose to have – and a destination’s “Instagrammability” is now a major driver of its attractiveness. Due to international travel restrictions, there has been a much bigger focus on New Zealanders exploring their own backyard and heading off the beaten track this summer, which has also resulted in a shift in the popular destinations for Instagrammers.
