Key takeaways
  • This is TikTok's trending list for its Tourism category, which we call travel here, with the 7-day search figure per topic.
  • Fastest risers are the topics whose searches grew most across the seven days in the snapshot.
  • Use the search topic wording in your caption and on-screen text; that is what TikTok matches against.

These are the travel topics people are searching for on TikTok this week, ranked the way TikTok ranks them, with the 7-day search figure for each. TokConnect reads them from the Tourism category of TikTok's trending searches in Creator Search Insights.

How to read it: a travel topic with around 1,000 matched videos leaves room for a clear, specific video, while one with 40,000 means you are competing with all of them, so lead with a detail the others skip, such as a price, a wait time or the best hour to go.

Other categories: gaming, food, fashion, travel, sports and the weekly report.

Ranked by TikTok's own popularity score in the Trending tab of Creator Search Insights. The sparkline is the last seven days.

TikTok names these topics itself and folds many related searches into each one, so the figure is the size of the topic, not the number of people typing that exact phrase. Compare them with each other, not with the typed searches above.
