Tailor-Made Travel Trends: Where My Clients Are Going and Why It Matters
Looking for meaningful travel ideas you won’t find in brochures? Here’s what’s actually booking - and how to travel smarter, sooner, and better.
Why “Tailor-Made” Travel Still Wins
There’s a reason most of my clients don’t ask for off-the-shelf holidays. They want experiences that reflect how they like to travel - not just where. In the last few months, I’ve helped clients book everything from glacier kayaking in Greenland to private yacht trips in the Grenadines. And every trip was built from scratch.
Whether you’ve got five days or fifteen, here’s what’s trending among thoughtful travellers - and how we can use it to your advantage.

1. Shorter Holidays, Bigger Rewards
Time is tight. But travel doesn’t need to be long to be life-changing. Most of my recent bookings have been 4–6 night escapes that deliver a complete reset. Think direct flights, stress-free transfers, and meaningful experiences woven in from day one.
Why it works: You get more frequent getaways, waste less time, and come back feeling like you’ve truly been away.
2. Off-Peak Is the New Peak
High summer crowds and sky-high prices are no longer the default. Clients are leaning into shoulder-season gems - think Northern Portugal in spring, Slovenia in September, or the French Alps post-summer.
What you gain: Better weather, better rates, fewer people, and the freedom to actually enjoy where you are.
3. All-Inclusive, But Reimagined
Forget plastic wristbands and soggy buffets. The new generation of all-inclusives is boutique, thoughtful, and full of character. I recently booked a family into an eco-retreat in Costa Rica where everything was included - from rainforest hikes to morning yoga to cocktails at sunset.
The result: No planning stress, no surprise costs, just complete switch-off travel with soul.
Only 2% of travellers believe airlines are serious about carbon reduction - and they’re not wrong. I work with suppliers who go further: smart routing, meaningful offsets, and accommodation that benefits the communities it’s part of.
Why it matters: You can still travel in comfort, but with a lighter footprint and a clearer conscience.
Even a few days of flexibility can open the door to quieter, more affordable, and more spacious travel. I’ll help you find the sweet spots - just outside school holidays, before local peak seasons, or when the light is better and the prices aren’t steep.
The win: More choice, more experience, better value.

Wildlife Travel That’s Built In, Not Bolted On
If you’re dreaming of polar bears in the Arctic or lemurs in Madagascar, let’s do it right. I only book wildlife experiences that support real conservation - not gimmicks. That means vetted partners, protected areas, and trips that help preserve what you’re there to see.
Final Word: What This Means For You
If you’re feeling the pull to get something on the calendar - whether it’s a short break, a family adventure, or a proper off-the-grid reset - now’s the time to act on it.
I’ll design the entire experience around you, from your preferences to your calendar. All you need to do is tell me where you want to go (or how you want to feel), and I’ll take care of the rest.
Ready to Plan Something Brilliant?
If something here has sparked an idea - or made you realise it's time to plan something for yourself - I’d love to help. Whether you know exactly where you're going or just how you want to feel when you get there, I’ll build the rest around you
