Australian tourists are the highest spenders globally on experiences and nightlife, spending nearly one out of every five holiday dollars on these activities, a report has found.

The annual report on global travel trends released late on May 16 by the Mastercard Economics Institute, a unit of the credit card giant, found Australian tourists spend 19 percent of their holiday cash on those activities, compared with a global average of 12 percent.
