Embracing Slow & Seasonal Travel
Embracing Slow & Seasonal Travel

Travelers are shifting toward slow travel, savoring longer stays and deeper engagement with destinations during shoulder and off?peak seasons. This not only reduces environmental impact but offers more authentic, crowd?free experiences 
 

“Coolcations” & Climate?Smart Escapes
With rising summer temperatures, coolcations—holidays to cooler climates—are surging. Destinations like Scandinavia, New?Zealand, and high?altitude retreats are trending, as travelers seek temperate summers 
 

 Rise of Soft & Eco?Conscious Adventures
Soft adventure (gentle treks, wildlife safaris, glamping) offers both thrill and comfort. Paired with a strong emphasis on low?carbon travel like hiking, cycling, kayaking, and wildlife watching, this segment is booming .

 Micro?Adventures & Seasonal Highlights
Busy travelers love micro?adventures—short bursts like weekend hikes, canyon trips, or hot?air balloon rides. Outdoor adventures such as trekking, snorkeling, and horseback safaris are dominating spring and summer vacation plans 

Celestial & Dark?Sky Travel
Astrotourism is attracting stargazers and cosmic seekers. Tours focused on Northern Lights, dark?sky reserves, and celestial retreats are growing, with 78% of Indian travelers identifying as “astrotourists” .

Off?Season & Rural Immersion
Travelers are embracing rural escapes—farm stays, forest?bathing, and wildlife workshops—during off?peak months. These immersive stays support local communities and promote sustainability 
 

Adventure Travel Soars
Adventure tourism has surged from $325?billion in 2022 to a projected $1.94?trillion by 2032. The sector now includes both hard adventures (deep?sea diving, high?altitude trekking) and soft ones like safaris and cultural walking tours
