It has been ranked the most popular destination for American travelers this summer, according to data analyzed by insurance company Allianz Partners.

The extremely popular and global travel insurance and assistance company conducts research each year to discover which foreign destinations are the most popular when it comes to travel for Americans.

And, this year, the data analyzed has shown that Cancun is, in fact, the number one tourist hotspot for travelers coming from the United States.

The investigation

The data analyzed was taken from more than one million travel itineraries of Americans who purchased travel insurance from Allianz Partners for their summer vacation, but only for vacations lasting between 5 and 8 days.

Using a variety of comprehensive research tools to analyze the data, the results revealed that Cancun remained at the top of the list of international travel destinations for US travelers, with the Mexican city also ranking number one in 2021.

Why is Cancun so popular with American travelers?

There are many reasons why Cancun is such a popular destination for tourists from the US, as the city has so much to offer visitors.

With a wide range of accommodation options to choose from, including a variety of new resorts that have recently opened in the city, finding a place to stay in Cancun is certainly not a difficult task.

It's also very easy to fly to this city from the US, with many US cities offering direct flights to Cancun, some in just a few hours.

And, there is no doubt that the Mexican city, which is situated on the Caribbean Sea, offers some of the best beaches for sun seekers to enjoy, which the Mexican government continues to maintain for tourists.

There are also plenty of fun activities to partake in, providing entertainment for the whole family, as well as a number of inexpensive tours available for those looking to watch their spending.

Cancun is also proving popular with tourists from other countries

Not only is Cancun proving to be a popular vacation destination for American travelers, but visitors from other foreign countries are also flocking to the city.

And, with an increasing number of flights available for Canadians, British and citizens of other European countries, to the city of Cancun.

Having predicted that the city would be "sold out" during the Easter holidays, these predictions were certainly not wrong, as more than a million visitors will have visited the region during this period.

This has resulted in the government calculating that the large number of visitors to the city will add very good numbers to the local economy.
