Expat Explore Forecasts a Shift Towards Warmer, Longer, and More Intentional Holiday Travel

With the holiday season just five months away, Expat Explore, a leading group tour operator, is urging travelers to plan ahead for a holiday season that promises to be warmer, more affordable, and culturally enriching. The company highlights a growing trend towards intentional international travel, with a focus on destinations offering summer weather during the winter break.

Carl Cronje, co-founder of Expat Explore, notes the emergence of a new era in holiday travel, characterized by longer trips and a desire for better value. The company's Christmas in July forecast identifies three key trends: extended holiday experiences, value-conscious planning, and a surge in shoulder season travel. For those looking to escape the cold, Expat Explore recommends tours such as the South Africa Escape Tour, Highlights of Morocco Tour, and the Cape Town and Garden Route Tour.

Jakes Maritz, another co-founder, observes a reimagining of holiday travel, with travelers seeking more meaning, time, and sunshine. This shift is reflected in the popularity of tours to warm destinations among American customers. Additionally, travel experiences are becoming a preferred gift, with considerations for seasonal preferences, accessibility, value, and cultural immersion.

Expat Explore also offers traditional Christmas tours across Europe and the UK, catering to those looking for a festive holiday experience. With the company's 20th Anniversary Birthday Sale, now is an opportune time to explore these options. For more details on tours and deals, visit https://expatexplore.com/pages/travel-deals/.
