– Agoda recommends five international summer getaways to cool down

SEOUL, South Korea, July 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — With unprecedented heatwaves sweeping across the globe this summer, South Korea is in the grip of its most intense heatwave in 117 years. Travelers are increasingly seeking cooler destinations to escape the hot and humid conditions. In response, digital travel platform Agoda has curated a list of refreshing ‘cool-cation’ destinations ideal for those looking to beat the heat.

Those looking to travel abroad to escape the heat can venture to destinations in the Southern Hemisphere like New Zealand and Australia where the seasons are reversed, offering the opportunity to enjoy a winter wonderland throughout July and August. Alternatively, mountainous, high-elevation destinations in the Northern Hemisphere like Canada, Austria and Switzerland also offer excellent conditions for cozy, cool-weather getaways.

New Zealand has experienced a 379% year-on-year rise in search volume from South Korean travelers, making it a top summer escape for skiers and snowboarders. July and August offer prime winter sports conditions, while visitors can also soak in stunning glacier views or relax in alpine hot springs.

Australia, with a 28% increase in interest, invites travelers to its snowy mountains and cool breezes. Phillip Island’s famous Penguin Parade, where Little Penguins waddle ashore at sunset, is a must-see for nature lovers.

Canada, up 91% in searches, is the ultimate “cool-cation” with mild summer temperatures and abundant outdoor adventures. Highlights include guided glacier walks on the Athabasca Glacier and paddling through Ontario’s Algonquin Park.

Austria, seeing a 44% rise in search volume, offers alpine relief from the heat. Adventurers can hike or bike scenic trails and swim in crystal-clear lakes like Wolfgang, Hallstatt, and Achensee, all set against breathtaking mountain backdrops.

Switzerland, with a 4% increase, remains a classic cool-cation choice. Visitors can ride scenic trains to snow-capped peaks, explore ice caves, or enjoy swimming and sailing in pristine glacial lakes.

Jay Lee, Country Director, South Korea at Agoda, said, “Following an early monsoon exit and the onset of a long, hot summer, travelers are increasingly turning to cooler, more refreshing destinations. At Agoda, travelers can discover and book an ideal stay where they can relax in comfort and enjoy a much-needed cool escape.”

With over 6 million holiday properties, 130,000 flight routes, and 300,000 activities available, Agoda makes it easy to plan the perfect ‘cool-cation’. Visit Agoda.com/deals or download the Agoda mobile app for the best deals.

Netcore Cloud unveils its State of MarTech 2025 report

Agentic AI is emerging as the marketer’s most powerful ally—automating workflows, running campaigns autonomously, and making decisions in real time at the speed of consumer intent. The report maps how intelligent AI agents are driving outcomes by aligning deeply with user behaviour, helping marketers scale personalisation, reduce acquisition waste, and increase lifetime value. Early adopters experimenting with affinity models, predictive segmentation, and content already see a 23% uplift in campaign performance. As brands optimize, benchmarks are expected to hit 30%-35% by year-end.

“Agentic AI is not just automation, it’s adaptive intelligence.

It turns global campaign data into a blueprint for smarter decisions, empowering teams to confidently embrace AI-led strategy and execution.”

Built around a fresh marketing framework, the report decodes what consumers truly C.R.A.V.E. (Convenience, Rewards, AI, Videos, Eco-consciousness) and how brands must A.D.A.P.T. (Activate, Decode, Autonomize, Predict, Target). The report highlights five key consumer shifts: rising demand for one-tap convenience, gamified loyalty, snackable video content, AI-powered assistance, and sustainable brand engagement. Here’s how they’re reshaping consumer behavior and marketing priorities:

• Speed now dominates the digital experience, with one-tap convenience becoming a baseline expectation.
• Gamified rewards are no longer a novelty as they’re driving deeper, more addictive brand loyalty.
• Snackable content continues to outperform long-form, capturing attention in an endless scroll environment.
• AI is shifting roles, gaining trust as a personal advisor rather than functioning as just a back-end tool.
• Sustainability has moved beyond virtue signaling and is now a core expectation from modern brands.

Nishant Arora, SVP – Marketing, Netcore Cloud, said, “The era of ‘guesswork marketing’ is over. Marketers no longer need more dashboards, they need decisive, intelligent action. Agentic AI marks a turning point, where systems don’t just inform decisions, they make them.
