Travel inspiration for every stage of life
One of the things we love most about travel is that it looks different for everyone. A couple celebrating an anniversary, a group of friends planning a long-overdue getaway, or a family travelling across generations will all want something completely different — and that’s exactly how it should be.
Here are five types of trips our clients are booking right now, each designed around connection, comfort, and unforgettable experiences.
1. A Romantic Island Escape (Couples)
Couples continue to gravitate towards island destinations for one simple reason: they make it easy to reconnect.
Island escapes offer privacy, relaxed days, and just enough indulgence to feel special. Think beach walks, ocean views, slow mornings, and evenings that don’t require any planning at all. These trips are especially popular for honeymoons, anniversaries, and “just because” escapes where time together is the priority.
For South African travellers, island holidays also offer convenience — with direct or easy connections, excellent service, and a true sense of escape.
2. A Friends’ Getaway with Shared Experiences
More and more friend groups are choosing to travel together to celebrate milestone birthdays, reunions, or simply time away from busy schedules.
These trips are all about balance: time together, but also space to do your own thing. Shared villas, resorts with flexible activities, and destinations that offer both relaxation and adventure are especially popular.
Whether it’s a beach escape, wine-focused getaway, or an adventure-led holiday, travelling with friends creates memories that last far longer than a weekend celebration ever could.
3. A Family Holiday That Actually Feels Like a Holiday
Family travel has evolved — and today’s families want holidays that work for everyone, not just the kids.
Parents are looking for destinations that offer:
- Family-friendly accommodation
- Activities for different age groups
- Time to relax while children are entertained
From resorts with kids’ clubs to destinations that encourage outdoor exploration, family holidays are about shared experiences without constant planning or pressure.
When done right, family travel becomes something everyone looks forward to — not something that feels exhausting.
4. Multigenerational Travel: One Trip, Many Memories
Multigenerational travel is one of the fastest-growing travel trends we’re seeing. Families are choosing to travel together — grandparents, parents, and children — to celebrate time together while everyone still can.
These trips require thoughtful planning, with destinations that offer comfort, accessibility, and activities suited to all ages. Safari lodges, cruises, and private villas are particularly popular for this type of travel, as they allow everyone to connect while still enjoying their own pace.
These trips often become family highlights — remembered and talked about for years.
5. A True Bucket-List Adventure
Some trips are more than holidays — they’re dreams fulfilled.
From iconic safaris to unforgettable international journeys, bucket-list travel is about doing something you’ve always wanted to do, not “one day”, but now. These trips are often planned carefully and well in advance, ensuring every detail is exactly right.
For many travellers, this is the trip they’ll remember forever — and expert planning makes all the difference.
Travel That’s Designed Around You
No matter who you’re travelling with, the most successful trips have one thing in common: they’re personalised. When travel is thoughtfully planned around your needs, interests, and travel style, it becomes effortless and memorable.
