The President of the Ural Tourism Association, head of the Ural branch of the Russian Union of the Tourism Industry, Mikhail Maltsev, made a forecast on where the residents of the Sverdlovsk region will go for vacation this summer.
Among international destinations, Turkey will still be popular, demand for Vietnam and Malaysia will increase, while demand for Egypt and Thailand will decline.
As for domestic tourism, there will be a decrease in tourist flow to the Krasnodar region, which is due to the high cost of vacationing and the strengthening of the tourist infrastructure in neighboring regions.
Overall, in the summer of 2026, a 15-20% decrease in trips is expected compared to the same period last year.
