When people travel, they usually think about museums, famous buildings, or beautiful beaches. But now, many travelers are adding one more stop to the plan: the local grocery store. This new style of travel is often called “grocery store tourism.” Expedia’s Unpack ’25 report says 39% of travelers visit grocery stores or supermarkets on vacation, and 44% buy local goods they cannot get at home.

The idea is simple: if you want to understand a place, look at what people buy and eat every day. Skyscanner calls this trend “Shelf Discovery” in its 2026 travel trends report. It says 55% of U.S. travelers always or often visit local supermarkets when they are abroad. The same report says 39% go there to discover new food and drinks, while 31% want to try local versions of familiar products. It also found that views of grocery-shopping conversations in travel subreddits rose 78% year over year. (skyscanner.com)

Food is a big reason for this trend. Booking.com says 78% of travelers agree that trying new foods is an important part of travel. A supermarket can show a different side of a country: what snacks are popular, what fruit is in season, how lunch is packed, and what families really cook at home. It is also often cheaper than eating every meal in a restaurant, so travelers can learn something new without spending too much. (news.booking.com)

Travel companies are already treating supermarkets as real attractions. In October 2024, Booking.com highlighted places such as Los Angeles, Lyon, Mexico City, Bali, and Bologna for grocery store tourism. In Lyon, shoppers can visit large French hypermarkets such as Monoprix and Carrefour. In Mexico City, some local tours even take visitors to neighborhood markets to buy ingredients and learn salsa-making from local families. In Bali, supermarkets are popular for affordable local snacks, drinks, and coffee. (news.booking.com)

For English learners, this trend is perfect. On your next trip, try spending just 20 minutes in a supermarket. Read the labels, compare products, and buy one snack you have never seen before. You may leave with more than food—you may leave with a small, real piece of local culture.
