Travel Trends | Redefining How We Explore in 2026

Today, we're diving into the trends that are shaping the way travelers are exploring the world. I'm joined by my good friend Jonathan Epstein, of Celebrated Experiences, one of our partners for curating authentic and luxurious travel experiences in Europe. We're diving into everything from travel as a way to escape mental overload, to how people are using trips to mark life moments. We go deep on the evolution from wellness travel to overall wellbeing travel and the expansion of where and when our clients are traveling.  It's a fun, forward looking conversation, but a very practical one, grounded in what we're actually seeing happen in the world right now. Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy this deep dive into the trends that will define how we travel in 2026.   Looking to book a luxury hotel?
