Women, sustainability and experiences will define luxury travel in 2025.
A new luxury travel report by Kinglike Concierge based on a survey of more than 158,000 high-net-worth consumers reveals the five trends that will shape the industry in 2025.
Kinglike Concierge offers luxury villa rentals with round-the-clock concierge service in destinations such as Mykonos, Paros, Antiparos, Corfu and Tuscany.
Here are the trends:
Luxury train tours take center stage
Luxury train tours have emerged as the most popular travel experience, with 24 percent of respondents ranking them as their preferred type of tour. Offering elegance, nostalgia and comfort, these journeys combine scenic exploration with curated luxury.
Thanasis Mougios, luxury travel expert at Kinglike, explains: “What makes luxury train tours so popular among high-net worth travelers is that sense of nostalgia and adventure it provides, combined with the exceptional service and comfort that allows them to enjoy every single moment of their journey.”
Sustainability becomes a booking priority
Sustainability is no longer an afterthought for luxury travelers. A notable 36.2 percent of respondents prioritize sustainable practices when booking their trips. From eco-friendly resorts to carbon-neutral tours, travelers are demanding responsible luxury.
Mr, Mougios said: “Luxury travelers are now more conscious than ever about the environmental impact of their journeys. There's a noticeable shift in behavior where carbon neutrality alone isn’t enough anymore. They want to ensure their travels actively support local communities and ecosystems. If this momentum continues, sustainability could become the cornerstone of the entire luxury travel industry by 2030.”
Unique experiences drive travel choices
For 27.5 percent of respondents, unique experiences are the key motivator when selecting a luxury tour.
“It’s interesting to see that luxury travelers choose unique experiences over other elements such as luxury accommodation," Mr. Mougios explains. “This trend shows there’s a shift in priorities, where travelers are more interested in living and feeling something authentic rather than the all-around luxury itself.”
Rise of the sustainable traveler
Sustainable travelers now represent the majority at 27.4 percent, a clear indicator that ethical considerations are shaping luxury tourism. These travelers seek out eco-conscious accommodations, carbon offset programs and cultural preservation initiatives.
Mr. Mougios notes: “The modern luxury traveler wants immersive experiences in untouched landscapes, combined with the reassurance that their travel choices are environmentally responsible. This shift reflects a growing awareness that travel can both enrich personal lives and support the preservation of the planet at once.”
Female travelers lead the luxury market
Female travelers make up 61.3 percent of the luxury travel segment, showcasing their growing influence on industry trends.
“Women are driving the luxury travel market for several reasons. First, they have more financial independence than ever before and they spend on high-end travel experiences. Plus, their travel preferences are changing. Many are now looking for personalized trips and focusing more on wellness and self-care,” Mr. Mougios said. “The influence of social media has also played a big role, as women often share their travel experiences online, which makes luxury brands pay closer attention to what they want.”
