Wellness Travel has been trending annually since 2015. With the stress and challenges of 2020, it is no surprise that Wellness Tourism is projected to reach $919 billion by 2022! A recent survey by the Global Wellness Institute found that travelers are increasingly focused on their physical, mental and spiritual well-being. These health-focused vacations offer stress reduction, much-needed rest and spiritual renewal. Take a deep breath and keep reading!
Wellness Travel is designed for every type of person. After a year of COVID-19, we all need a break! You can book a long weekend designed for total rest and rejuvenation. Center your mind with a yoga retreat or mindful relaxation. Recharge your body with healthy eating and spa treatments. Active travelers love outdoor adventures in natural settings.
Here are some Wellness Trips I would recommend.
1. Stay at a resort that specializes in wellness. Close your eyes and imagine relaxing in Napa Valley at a resort that can deliver the ultimate vacation experience with indulgent spa treatments, hiking trails and legendary wineries. If you prefer a sunny climate in the desert, there are resorts in Arizona that offer wellness programs with healthy delicious food that soothes both the body and soul! Looking for a Caribbean resort that offers a unique experience with dedicated fitness classes, soaking tubs and superb amenities? I would recommend the brand new wellness hotel in Punta Cana.
2. Have you always dreamed of a river cruise? There is nothing more relaxing than meandering up the river. These intimate cruises are offered in Europe, Asia and right here in the USA! Several of the river cruise lines in Europe have bicycles on board for their guests and offer guided bike tours. I can recommend a river cruise line that offers fitness facilities, yoga sessions, Tai Chi classes, guided meditation and massage services. After your class, relax in the pool or lounge on the sun deck as you enjoy the breathtaking scenery all around you.
3. If activity helps you unwind, you should head to Alaska for a week-long break. Get lots of fresh air in the rugged outdoors as you view spectacular scenery. I can arrange excursions for light hiking, biking, rafting and kayaking.
There are so many options for Wellness Travel. Contact me for more details on these trips. I would be happy to help you plan a vacation that will reduce that stress we've all been experiencing!!
