The world is full of splendor, and luxury-minded travelers are beginning
to look for more than a five-star hotel. Luxury can mean different

travelers.
The Shifting Tides of Luxury Travel: Emerging Destinations Steal the Spotlight
There is an interesting shift in the destinations that luxury travelers are
seeking to visit. Most people that consider themselves luxury-minded
have enjoyed the opulence and glamour in destinations like Paris,
London and Rome. They are looking for hidden gems in emerging
destinations. Instead of Rome, they want to explore Puglia. They want
to experience Mallorca instead of Barcelona.
Indigenous Experiences: A New Frontier for Luxury Tour Operators
And with emerging destinations, tour operators have the opportunity to
create experiences centered around indigenous appreciation. Some of the most popular experiences are a bush walk with Aboriginal Australians, submerge into indigenous culture in BC, Canada, or enjoy the Festival of Austronesian and Formosa Indigenous Cultures in Taiwan.
Wealthy Wanderlust: How High Net Worth Americans Defy Travel Trends

or ultra-high net worth is how they plan to continue to spend money
on travel despite inflation. In fact, a recent 2022 outlook study from
Clarfeld Citizens Private Wealth firm found that an 80% majority plan to
spend the same amount or more on travel in 2023.
