Half-term holiday plans may still be different to usual, with the pandemic still halting ambitions to travel abroad.
So, to help with the demand of local trips across the UK and to help families get back on the road, Asda Money has investigated the UK travel plans of 2,000 people.
Findings have been used to help create a personalised Asda Money’s Adventure Planner that can help build the perfect UK trip, including over 150 attractions for all ages, groups, budgets and UK holiday dreams.
