Opportunity for business: Mutelu travel lifestyle

      Mutelu Type: Popular among Gen X and baby boomers who travel in groups of family and friends. They enjoy cultural tourism, local shopping, and sightseeing in particular. Because the majority of the tourists are senior citizens, they are still concerned about safety and hygiene.
