What interesting things await tourists in 2025: the main trends

Travel trends for 2025 indicate the growing popularity of destinations that help reduce stress and reconnect with nature. According to booking platforms, travelers are choosing trips focused on relaxation and unique experiences, including visiting little-known places and searching for special natural phenomena.

In addition, priorities are changing in the choice of accommodation and style of vacation: cozy remote houses, restaurants with local specialties and relaxed pastime have become integral components of travel, Euronews reports.

According to Omio's statistics, the number of solo travelers among men will increase significantly in 2025. This trend, which was previously mostly supported by women, is gaining momentum among men, 30% of whom are already planning solo trips. They also tend to travel on a budget, spending around 2,400 euros.

The focus is on off-the-beaten-path destinations that are chosen instead of popular tourist locations. Expedia calls places near major cities, such as Reims near Paris and Girona near Barcelona, ideal for day trips and a break from the tourist crowds.

Hotel restaurants are becoming increasingly popular. According to Hotels.com, guests are not only booking rooms, but also considering the reputation of the hotel restaurant. The number of positive reviews of hotel restaurants has increased by 40%, and almost a third of UK travelers note the importance of access to tables reserved for guests only.

FOMO (fear of missing out) is gradually being replaced by JOMO, the joy of staying away from the hustle and bustle. The Vrbo platform notes that travelers are choosing to vacation in secluded houses on the beach or in the mountains, where they can escape the daily hustle and bustle. For such trips, travelers choose amenities such as quiet gardens, swimming pools, and hot tubs.

Another feature of 2025 is the desire to see natural phenomena. The Northern Lights, volcanoes, hot springs, and starling migration in Denmark are among the most desirable phenomena. Such unique moments add new emotional value to travel.
