2026 Travel Trends: Big Trips, Slow Days, and What Travelers Want Next

Travel is changing again as we head into 2026, and the shift is clear from what our clients are booking right now. This episode looks at the five biggest trends shaping the new year — the trips people want, the trips people are planning years ahead, and the way travelers are thinking about time, money, and meaning. 1. Bigger Trips Are In Clients are planning the kind of trips they used to save for “one day.”  Antarctica, African safaris, Japan in cherry blossom season, the Galapagos, and long Europe trips are leading the way. Instead of quick escapes, people want experiences that feel worth the flight and the savings. We talk about why this is happening now, and why so many families are planning these trips two or three years out. 2. Slow Travel Is Growing More nights, less rushing.  Long river cruises, extended Europe stays, and back-to-back itineraries are becoming the norm. With flight prices climbing, travelers want trips with enough time to settle in, breathe, and experience a place instead of rushing through it. 3. Custom Plans, Not Cookie-Cutter Plans Half relaxation, half adventure. A food tour mixed with spa time. Safari followed by Zanzibar. Families want plans that reflect their style instead of preset packages. We explain how custom planning works behind the scenes and why having the right partners makes a big difference. 4. Celebration Travel Birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, retirements, and multi-generation trips continue to increase each year. Travelers want to mark life moments with shared experiences, not more things. We also talk about why these trips should be planned early — especially if you’re bringing a big group. 5. Vibe-Driven Travel More travelers are picking trips based on how they want to feel: calm, energized, connected, or inspired.  Think:  • overwater quiet spots  • food-focused trips  • wellness stays  • relaxing beach escapes  • theme park comfort trips This part of the episode looks at how travelers describe the feeling they want from a trip and how we help turn that into an actual plan.
