The summer season has arrived! So, it’s time to pack a suitcase and fly on vacation. Just do not forget about the first-aid kit, because even during the rest it is worth remembering about health.
Specialists of the online hotel and apartment booking service Ostrovok, together with experts from the Savings and Savings Bank, told where Russians will go on vacation in 2025 and advised how to assemble a first-aid kit for different types of recreation.
It has become clear that there is a growing interest in educational and cultural recreation. For example, the number of bookings across Russia has increased in cities such as Yekaterinburg, Pskov, Novosibirsk, Vladimir, Nizhny Novgorod, Veliky Novgorod and Yaroslavl. Russians choose Kazakhstan, Belarus, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia and Uzbekistan among their foreign destinations.
Advice from the pharmacist of the Savings Bank:During sightseeing tours, you need to have a supply of painkillers and antibiotics with you (such medicines can be sold by prescription abroad).
Also, one of the favorite types of recreation remains the beach. Crimea became the leader in terms of growth rates (+26%). Vietnam and Maldives are among the foreign destinations (an increase of two times).
Tip: put anti-poisoning and ARVI drugs in the first-aid kit.
Destinations for outdoor activities also retain their popularity. There is a noticeable interest in Irkutsk, Arkhyz, Murmansk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk and Gorno-Altaysk.
The Council:The first-aid kit for active tourism requires sterile and elastic bandages, antiseptics and insect bites.
