Tourism is one of the largest industries in the UK, worth over £74 billion. According to the UK Tourism Survey, UK residents spent almost £32 billion on day trips and took over 59.3 million holidays of one night or more spending £11.5 billion. Many holidaymakers travelled to attractions by car, not to mention the hoards of Britons that drove to the airport or ferry port before setting off to even warmer climes.
