Grown-up holidaymakers are taking the time to plan thoughtful, fun and exhilarating adult-only getaways that provide much-needed respite from the pressures and responsibilities associated with daily life. These trips focus on forging meaningful connections with like-minded partners, indulging in play-fuelled recreation and discovering alternative wellness offerings.
Adult travellers are engaging in a variety of playful and nostalgic activities usually reserved for younger individuals while on their trips. These young-at-heart tourists are enjoying adult-orientated theme parks, immersive indoor playgrounds and summer camps that recapture youthful vibes. This is part of the wider kidulting phenomenon, whereby play is embraced as a form of escapism and stress relief.
