Here is a personalized feature in Google search around passed searches you did for vacations or trips. Sergey Alakov posted a screen shot on Twitter of a carousel feature in search that shows "you recently viewed" these places in Google search and "only you can see this."
It shows Sergey passed places he viewed in Google local. But Sergey said he only "conducting several branded hotel searches" but did not necessarily visit any of these through Google search.
Here is his screen shot:
Brad Brewer who may be the only person who watches the hotel Google search results more than Sergey said he has been seeing these for the past few months now. He wrote on Twitter:
@sergey_alakov we've seen it for couple months, and triggered once you visit the hotels via Google Flights/Hotel App; did you go there by chance, or only by doing branded searches and visiting GMB listings? pic.twitter.com/wpaCVqDRAU

Forum discussion at Twitter.
Update: Here is a desktop example of recently viewed places:
