What are the travel trends that are going to be huge in 2025?
It’s that time of year again! Not only are we hurtling towards the end of 2024, but the weather feels decidedly very ‘November’. We don’t know about you, but these rainy autumn days have us hankering after sun-drenched skies, unforgettable adventures and exciting things to see and do in vibrant cities that are just waiting to be explored!
As we head into 2025, the question isn’t necessarily just where to go, but what are the key travel trends for the year ahead. According to a recent report from Skyscanner, it seems that one of the biggest travel trends is a demand for collective and shared experiences. After all, one of the best things about travelling is planning a trip where you will make memories that will last forever.
For those looking for a more personalised approach to travel, a dedicated travel itinerary that is generated by a click of a button, that you can share with your fellow trip-goers surely has to be the thing to have when booking travel in 2025?
Whether you know exactly what you want to do on your trip or if you are looking for some seriously helpful travel inspiration, then be sure to download the Pogo travel app to your phone.
Not only can you create Pinboards which will allow you to add things to see and do, where to eat, shop and even where to stay, but you can even get inspiration from other travel planners too!
It’s easy to see why Pogo has been awarded the moniker of ‘the Pinterest of travel’, not only is it visually pleasing, it allows you to plan every aspect of your trip and you can even collaborate on every Pinboard you create with the people you travel with.
Take advantage of your very own travel itinerary for each trip
So, you know what you want to see and do for your exciting up-and-coming trip, but how do you decide when to go and how to plan each day? It’s so easy with Pogo Magic (part of Pogo Plus)
Using advanced AI technology, Pogo Magic creates bespoke itineraries based on your own personal interests and what you have interacted with on the Pogo app.
Users can hit the ‘MAGIC’ button in the Pogo travel app and it will automatically create a trip itinerary that is completely tailored to their likes and interests.
This AI technology is so sophisticated that it will incorporate the best times to visit tourist attractions (based on how busy it is), the travel time between each point of interest and even the weather!
It will also make insightful recommendations based on other points of interest, what’s popular at the moment as well as where to stay.
The trip itinerary uses the information from the pinboards the user has created as well as other pinboards that they may have interacted with.
Pogo users can save even more money by becoming a Pogo Plus member. Despite enjoying preferential rates throughout the free version of the app, Plus users can take advantage of exclusive member discounts of up to 20% on hotel and flight bookings.
TOP TRAVEL TIPS
What are the other key travel trends for 2025? Here are three of our favourites that we think are going to be huge in the coming months.
Sports travel - Well hello sports fans! From Formula 1 to football, creating a trip around your favourite sport or sports team has never been easier and it seems that sports is one of the travel industry's fastest-growing sectors.
Whether you favour high-octane racing for the Bahrain Grand Prix or supporting the England ladies in Switzerland next July, why not combine your love of travel and sports and book a sports-travel focused trip today with Pogo?
A love of the arts - Art and culture have long been a favourite motivation to travel and if you are less sports and more Salvador Dali, then you are in luck as art-centric trips are going to be huge in 2025. 44% of travellers cite culture as one of the most important motivations to book a particular destination.
From immersive art to traditional galleries, it’s little wonder that culture travel is on the rise, with people wanting to incorporate these shared experiences into their travel plans.
Live long and prosper - Wellness is perennially a huge trend when it comes to booking travel. With everyone living busy lives, sometimes it’s nice to book a trip that allows you to completely reset and relax.
However, it’s not just about yoga and massages, when it comes to the latest wellness trends for 2025, this is wellness on an entirely new level that allows travellers to reset with purpose and to embrace holidays that allow them to live longer and feel younger at the same time.
