Expat Explore Predicts a Shift Towards Warmer, Longer Holiday Travel
Expat Explore forecasts a trend towards intentional international travel with a focus on longer trips, better value, and destinations offering summer weather during the winter break.
Expat Explore, a leading group tour operator, has identified a significant shift in holiday travel trends for the upcoming season, emphasizing longer, value-conscious trips to warmer destinations. According to Carl Cronje, co-founder of Expat Explore, travelers are increasingly seeking extended holiday experiences that offer both cultural immersion and summer weather during the traditional winter break. The company highlights tours such as the South Africa Escape Tour, Highlights of Morocco Tour, and the Cape Town and Garden Route Tour as ideal for those looking to escape the cold.
Jakes Maritz, another co-founder, notes the growing popularity of travel experiences as gifts, suggesting that such offerings provide meaningful exploration without the hassle of planning. Expat Explore's range of 7 to 14-day traditional Christmas tours across Europe and the UK, including the Europe Taster Christmas Tour and the Europe Jewel Christmas & New Year Tour, cater to this trend. The company's insights into the evolving preferences of travelers underscore the importance of early planning to secure the best deals and destinations for the holiday season.
