Traveling has transformed over the past few years. With so many people not wanting to be “the tourists who follow the known roads” but travelers “who explore the unknown,” it seems like there’s not much unknown left to explore. Every corner of the world has been featured in at least a few Instagram photos and we now wonder — what can we expect from traveling in 2020? Here are three trends that will be the biggest.
Micro Hotels
The concept of micro hotels located in remote places, often in nature, is supposed to fight our dependence on technology and connectivity. These hotels are meant for a relaxing vacation where you can set yourself free from everything that’s not necessary for your life.
Environmental Conscience
Travelers are realizing the importance of balancing out the negative impact their travels have on the environment. Every little thing can help, from choosing eco-friendly accommodation to donating money to organizations that develop renewable energy projects.
Hipster Cruise
Up until now, travel companies have been completely ignoring younger people as a cruise target group. This is about to change in 2020 with Richard Branson and his new project Virgin Voyages meant for young people who’ve probably never been on a cruise. The cruiser will feature a tattoo salon, a record store, an open gym, a craft beer bar, etc.
