Your 2027 planning starts well before the first hotel confirmation. ✈️ New airlift, hotel developments, evolving travel preferences, and major events can all shape the right itinerary for your clients. With Western Europe in focus, we’re sharing what to watch—and how to turn those updates into thoughtful planning decisions. Save this guide for reference, and tell us: What’s showing up most often in your 2027 client inquiries?

New month, new opportunities to grow your travel business! 🎙️✨ Our founder, @yina_allabout, recently joined the @tiquehq podcast to talk all things roadshows, supplier relationships, and making the most of networking opportunities. Whether you’re a seasoned advisor or just getting started, building meaningful supplier connections is an important part of growing your business. 🎧 Tune into Episode 260 to hear Yina’s insights and learn how to make your next roadshow even more valuable!

You can’t plan a trip to Switzerland without including a stop in Zermatt. For U.S. travelers, it’s one of the most iconic alpine villages in the world — car-free, framed by the Matterhorn, and the kind of place that deserves 4-5 nights to experience beyond the ski lifts. @beessentialclub knows how to pair Zermatt with other destinations with seasonality and interests in mind for a seamless trip!

Coffee overlooking the Pitons or dinner with a sea view in Barbados? Why pick… For clients who have 7+ nights to spend in the Caribbean, you can combine @cobblerscovehotel in Barbados with @hotelchocolatsaintlucia in St. Lucia for an impressive adults-only trip. Multiple operators offer nonstop flights between the islands (only 45 minutes!) #caribbeanhoneymoon #luxurytraveladvisor

Who doesn’t love a little souvenir shopping when visiting a new place?! The team at @nubainsider_iberia shared their favorite Spanish made products that are worth bringing home in your suitcase.

Our final two online trainings of the year are on the calendar with @jauntmexico and @blisstravel_gr! Interested in attending to expand your knowledge on Mexico and Greece? Leave a comment and we’ll send you the RSVP link!

There’s been a lot happening at @nizucresort lately —Catch up on their newest additions (including awards!) below. This is the perfect time to pitch your client on a warm weather trip as we approach festive season 🌴 The Crown Jewel of Cancun: NIZUC earned its first Michelin Key this month! Along with their Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating, NIZUC stands as the only hotel in the Cancún area to hold both ultra-premium awards Massive New Presidential Villa: The resort is debuting a brand new Three-Bedroom Presidential Villa this year spanning over 9,000 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor living space, this ultra-luxury accommodation features its own private pool, a cascading waterfall, and dedicated butler service Advanced Longevity Program: The NIZUC Spa by ESPA expanded its treatment options to now include a fully comprehensive MedSpa and Longevity circuit, including non-surgical body-toning procedures (like TempSure and Cooltone), IV vitamin therapies, and holistic cold-plunge therapies

Do your clients need a little travel inspo for a fall getaway? Our team is sharing their picks for the season and two spots are closer than you think! 🍂

Getting lost in Italy looks different when planning a trip with @seeitalytravel. It’s less about jam packed itineraries and more focused on unique experiences and curating a feeling your clients are chasing. With a team actually based in Italy and owner, Laura Masoni in Sicily you know the recommendations they share are 10/10! #italytravel

October sales calls and meetings have been in full swing! @aimee_allabout hit the road and visited Phoenix, San Diego, Orange County and Pasadena for Departure Lounge Exchange with Monte-Carlo SBM, Cynthia from NIZUC and Elbia from Be Essential. Next stop ✨ San Francisco!! If you had a chance to meet us this month, leave a comment! 🤎

This just in from @puntacana.concierge! There are only a few villas left in Punta Cana for the holiday season. Swipe through to find the perfect option for a family or group traveling together. We love the ocean views from Corales 44 👀🌊 Villas require a 10-night minimum stay over Christmas and NYE dates. Availability subject to change.

Autumn is making a swift appearance in NYC and there’s no better place to warm up on a chilly day than your own apartment at @maison.hudson. 🍂 There are pockets of short term availability for clients wanting a more residential take on the city, email our team for the full availability calendar across all units.

You can’t plan a trip to Brazil without including a stop in Rio de Janeiro. For U.S. travelers, it serves as the gateway to the rest of Brazil and the city deserves 4-6 nights to fully explore beyond Copacabana Beach. @amazorial_luxury_dmc knows how to pair Rio with other destinations with seasonality and interests in mind for a seamless trip!

There’s always a reason to visit Monaco!@hoteldeparismc and @hotelhermitagemc are open year-round with plenty of happenings on and off property. Casino Square, designer shopping and the yacht club are only steps away. 🇲🇨

Get your clients ready for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Egypt next year! The total solar eclipse on August 2, 2027—called the “Eclipse of the Century” will feature up to 6 minutes and 23 seconds of totality in Egypt, making it one of the longest land-based total solar eclipses of the 21st century. NOW is the time secure space and make travel plans with the help from the @highendjourneys team.

Another roundup of feedback featuring YOU and the recent trips you’ve been working on with our partners. Thank you @rememberwhentravels for sharing your client’s highlights from Greece with @blisstravel_gr and @harnaltravel for the detailed insights from a recent family trip to Egypt with @highendjourneys Have you worked with one of our partners lately? Email us about your experience to be featured!

Our Destination to Watch for 2027: Greece 🇬🇷 We’re seeing early demand shift toward the lesser-known islands and late May or early October dates (the “new” shoulder season). Advisors, this is the year to get your Greek itineraries in front of clients early, take these recs from the team at @blisstravel_gr!

Paradise isn’t so far away and once your clients arrive at @nizucresort they won’t want to leave. We love their brand new 3-bedroom presidential villa (9,000 sq. Feet of space!) for families and groups complete with a private garden and pool.

Sardinia is expected to be a hot spot in 2027 and while the coastal towns often steal the spotlight, the mountain villages on the island’s interior are still decidedly not touristy… yet. We consulted the @seeitalytravel travel designers for their recs on where to stay and what to do in Oliena, one of the most picturesque villages. No need to pick between the beach and the mountains, combined both for a well-rounded itinerary. ⛰️🇮🇹

Imagine waking up with these views at @hotelchocolatsaintlucia 🍃 For honeymoon clients and couples trips, this is the hotel to be at on St. Lucia and here’s why: ✔️Rooms open to the outdoors, but can easily be closed and secured at night for peaceful sleep. ✔️One of the best restaurants on the island with a cacao inspired menu ✔️ Adults only, boutique property ✔️ Activities include beach trips, boating, yoga, cacao farm walks with Project Chocolat, chocolate making, and spa

Please join us in congratulating six ALLabout partners who were awarded Michelin Keys this year. We’re so proud of each hotel for going above and beyond to create a unique experience that reminds us it’s not just an overnight stay, sometimes the hotel is the destination.

What’s more awe inspiring than seeing Egypt for the first time? Exploring the country on a gorgeous boutique ship floating down the Nile River. @highendjourneys has been adding three-day cruises to client itineraries all year and it’s been a major hit, especially with new ships entering the market that are more like floating hotels compared to a traditional cruise line.

Discover Spain beyond the basic with @nubainsider_iberia. Autumn is an excellent time to send wine and food-focused clients to La Rioja who want a unique experience, like the annual wine harvest called “Vendimia.” Tips: ✔️Base clients in Haro, Logroño, or Elciego for the shortest transfers to the marquee bodegas. ✔️Winemaker-led tastings and private vineyard walks book out early once harvest dates are announced (early start this year due to a hot summer), so using a well-connected DMC like NUBA is crucial. ✔️Marqués de Riscal remains the benchmark for wine tourism, and the new Palacio de los Ángeles in Haro is the property to watch this season — get an early in to both before they get popular. ⭐️Destination pairing: Pair this region with San Sebastián or Bilbao for clients who want a coastal add-on either side of the trip.

Lisbon is having a moment and we love that travelers are asking for this urban destination! It’s easy to see why with beautiful tiled façades, hillside miradouros, and a food scene that keeps surprising us. @palacioludovicehotelofficial is at the center of it all, and it’s the perfect hotel for clients who don’t want to skimp on amenities just because it’s a city stay. Save these recs for your clients visiting Lisbon soon! 🔖

The noteworthy Paris autumn edit 🍂 @maison.villeroy — A cozy retreat in Paris ready to host for fall shopping and events with fewer crowds, fall foliage and plenty of things to do around the city. — Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre. The grape harvest festival at Paris’s last working vineyard, with food stalls, live music, and wine tastings through the historic Montmartre streets. — Fall foliage strolls: Jardim des Tuileries, Jardin du Luxembourg, and Jardin du Palais-Royal are all at their most beautiful as the leaves turn, and a Seine river cruise offers a whole different view of the changing colors. — European Heritage Days (Sept 19-20). Rare public access to museums, monuments, and government buildings across the city. — Paris Photo (Nov 12-15). The world’s largest international photography fair, for clients who love art and culture.

It’s not too early to start planning the holidays. Here’s our roundup of festive availability across Mexico and the Caribbean and how to plan for the busiest travel time of the year. From beachfront Christmas dinners to New Year’s fireworks over the water. Advisors, let’s get your clients’ dates secured!

One of our top wellness destination picks with easy access from the U.S. is @nizucresort located just 15 minutes away from the Cancun airport. It’s secluded and peaceful with a private beach, mangrove lagoon, and a 30,000 sq. foot spa. Here’s what your clients will love about NIZUC: 🌀 18 treatment rooms and private spa villas 🌀 The first ESPA-branded facility in Mexico, blending European wellness with Mayan traditions 🌀 Complimentary hydrotherapy circuit as a perk for clients who book through a TA 🌀 Wellness activities include oceanfront yoga, sound healing, breath work, & cacao ceremonies

Yina just returned from her fourth trip to Mexico City and this time the focus was on local shopping, dining and exploring favorite neighborhoods more in-depth. With the help of @jauntmexico’s knowledgeable guide, she discovered unique designers and cool creative spaces with plenty of downtime to relax over an afternoon coffee. This would be the perfect itinerary for a girls weekend or a solo traveler who has already seen the highlights in Mexico City. Have an upcoming Mexico City or multi-stop Mexico trip? Reach out and we can connect you with a @jauntmexico itinerary designer.

Early fall is when Crete really shows off and @cayoresort in Elounda is the place to unwind for a 4-5 nights with fewer crowds, warm seas, and golden light on the olive groves until the end of October. 🫒🧿 Rates start at ~$750 per night from now until October 27 with preferred amenities and enhanced commission opportunities for travel advisors.

Happy September advisors! 🍂 For a little fall travel inspiration, I’m sharing my three favorite destinations that are at their very best from September - November. Need an intro or VIP request for any of the partners listed? Just let us know!

Fresh off the ferry with @blisstravel_gr team and we’re already dreaming of our next trip back to Greece. These were our highlights and notes from our time in Mykonos and Paros. It’s still summer in the Cyclades until mid-October so your clients can enjoy the Greek sunshine, boat days and warm waters for another 7 weeks! Thank you to @michelleoliveiratravel, @sarahgabrielle25, @keekandkails.travel, @travelbybrittb, & @getawaywithjoanna for joining us on this trip and taking the most Insta-worthy photos 🌀🇬🇷🧿

One itinerary, three icons of Brazil. 🇧🇷 This is one of @amazorial_luxury_dmc’s most comprehensive routes — packed with experiences start to finish, and built for couples and friends (easily adapted for families too). 3 nights in Rio de Janeiro: samba, surfing & architecture 3 nights in Paraty: colonial charm and coastline 3 nights in Iguaçu: spectacular natural scenery A strong pick for first-time visitors who want to see different sides of Brazil — and a great combination for the festive season. If you want to learn more about selling Brazil join us for an online training on August 26!

Just back from Virtuoso Travel Week! There’s something special about seeing relationships we’ve nurtured throughout the years come together in one place, one time a year and seeing our incredible partners from around the world connect with the travel advisor community. Thanks to everyone who detoxed (and retoxed!) with us in our wellness suite. - Yina & Aimee

Fall in Mexico isn’t shoulder season anymore, it’s selling season. 🇲🇽✨ From Día de los Muertos in Oaxaca to World Cup energy lifting demand nationwide, here are 3 trends (and the destinations behind them) worth knowing before your next client call. Swipe through, save this for your files, and tell us which of these are you already pitching?

A little peek inside @maison.villeroy ✨ If you’re attending DUCO France from November 2–6, we’d love to welcome travel advisors to the Maison before or after for a private site inspection and a toast. Get in touch with us to arrange your visit—we’d be delighted to show you around!

Have you seen the latest @seeitalytravel journal in your inbox? 👀 If you’re not subscribed yet, you absolutely should be. For travel advisors, their emails are packed with useful, actionable insight to help you sell Italy more strategically. Missed the latest one? Here’s the quick recap: seasonality and booking windows are shifting in Italy and you need to adapt with it. We love their refreshingly honest take on when to go, where to send clients, and which experiences are worth building a trip around. One caveat: A fall week in Northern Italy isn’t for every client. If someone wants guaranteed beach heat, late summer in Sicily or Puglia is likely the better fit. But for couples, food-and-wine lovers, and clients looking for something a little more experiential, autumn can be an incredible choice—and the timing works in your favor. Think wine harvests, truffles, hunting season, and unique food experiences that make the season feel distinctly Italian.

We’re excited to bring you a fantastic lineup of partners and valuable travel insights in our upcoming online training series! Our first session kicks off August 22 with our newest partner, @amazorial_luxury_dmc, followed by @puntacana.concierge and @montecarlosbm — with more exciting trainings to come!

There’s so much more to Madrid than most first-time visitors expect. Many travelers treat Spain’s capital as a quick stop before an international flight, only to leave wishing they had stayed longer. From stunning architecture and vibrant, authentic neighborhoods (yes, locals actually live and work here!) to world-class museums, incredible food, and a culture that comes alive on every corner, Madrid has a way of turning a layover into the highlight of the trip. @nubainsider_iberia knows just how to pull it off perfectly for your clients with the insider recommendations!

Our team just got back from @cobblerscovehotel in Barbados, also known as the “Pink Palace” of the Caribbean.

It’s one of the most intimate luxury hotels in Barbados— no large resort feel, just genuine service with an exceptional loyalty from repeat guests especially during the holidays.

Dining in Monaco is an experience in itself. From Michelin-starred tasting menus to waterfront terraces, these are five restaurants your clients shouldn’t miss during their trip: 1. Le Louis XV – Alain Ducasse at @hoteldeparismc  2. Elsa at @montecarlobeach  3. Le Grill at @hoteldeparismc  4. Blue Bay Marcel Ravin at @montecarlobay  5. Amazónico Monte-Carlo for lively dinners and late-night energy

Sending clients to Italy this summer? A little prep goes a long way. @seeitalytravel always handles the details to make it seamless, but it’s helpful to remind your clients of these important tips: ✔ Reserve early — Top restaurants, beach clubs, and private tours are booking out weeks in advance.  ✔ Pack for the heat — July and August can be intensely warm, especially in cities like Rome and Florence.  ✔ Expect a slower pace — Afternoon breaks and later dinner times are part of the Italian lifestyle.  ✔ Carry some cash — Cards are widely accepted, but small cafés, taxis, and local shops may still prefer cash.  The best Italy trips happen when travelers arrive ready to embrace the rhythm of the country—not fight it!

What clients are dreaming about from their recent stays at @puntacana.concierge! Think of the team at PCC as Villa matchmakers, with a few details they can match your clients to a villa that fits their design preferences, group size, and desired location.

Family travel in Monaco just got even sweeter. ✨ At @hotelhermitagemc and @montecarlobay, families receive 50% off a second sea-view room for children up to 12, complimentary breakfast, special dining benefits, a surprise welcome gift, and a dedicated children’s concierge program.

Fresh off an unforgettable journey through Greece, Hailey from @centredtravel is sharing why partnering with a trusted local expert makes all the difference. With the expertise of @blisstravel_gr, every detail was seamlessly handled for their trip, from navigating domestic flights between the islands to authentic experiences like hands-on cooking classes and olive oil tastings. The result? More meaningful connections, less logistical stress, and a deeper understanding of the destination. In a place as diverse and complex as Greece, local knowledge transforms a great trip into an exceptional one!

Located in the prestigious Golden Triangle of Paris, @maison.villeroy places guests steps from the city’s best luxury shopping and charming independent French shops.

Cruise the Nile in style!

Planning Switzerland this summer? Instead of trying to see everything, pair two regions with completely different personalities. Top combinations recommended by @beessentialclub: Zermatt + Lake Lucerne Engadin Valley + Lake Como Interlaken Region + Montreux Andermatt + Verbier These pairings combine iconic scenery, luxury hotels, outdoor adventure, and authentic Swiss experiences while keeping travel time manageable. Be Essential Club is an incredible on-the-ground partner for Switzerland, helping with everything from hotel recommendations to custom itinerary design and destination expertise.

Looking for a villa in Mexico for a family getaway, group retreat, or ultra-private client? @jauntmexico has recently expanded its portfolio with a curated collection of hand-selected, thoroughly vetted homes across the country. One destination their team is particularly excited about right now is Careyes—a charming and highly exclusive coastal enclave on Mexico’s Pacific coast, just north of Manzanillo. Known for its striking architecture, pristine beaches, and laid-back sophistication, it’s an ideal setting for travelers seeking privacy, beauty, and an authentic sense of place.

Mexico works best when clients experience more than one side of the destination! And having a true local partner by your side will make the experience seamless! @jauntmexico Some of our favorite summer pairings for 2026: • Mexico City + San Miguel de Allende • Mexico City + Oaxaca • Los Cabos + La Paz • Riviera Maya + Mérida These combinations allow clients to balance culture, food, wellness, beach time, and luxury hotels all in one itinerary. Summer can also bring some of the best value-adds, upgrades, and availability in Mexico for luxury travelers!

Barbados is home to the iconic @cobblerscovehotel and is best for great food, luxury stays, and calm beaches.  • Best weather: December–April • Summer/Fall = better value + fewer crowds • West Coast = luxury resorts + calm water BEST TIME TO BOOK For peak winter travel, especially during holiday time we recommend booking 6–10 months in advance.

That’s a wrap on our Texas roadshow! Thanks to all of the fabulous advisors in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio and Houston who joined us for an event, we can’t wait to see you again. 🤠 Shoutout to these AllAbout partners for joining us! @nubainsider_es @beessentialclub @nizucresort @puntacana.concierge

Is this not the coolest kids' club ever?! At @chableyucatan, it's all about letting kids explore nature through outdoor play. Plus, they've got a working garden and farm onsite where families can hang out with the animals and learn how to care for them. 🍃🐐

Escape to paradise, We've got the ultimate Caribbean honeymoon inspiration for you! Struggling to plan a romantic 4-5 night getaway? @cobblerscovehotel is it, the real challenge will be prying your clients away from this stunning pink palace. 🌸👙 Here's our dreamy 4-night itinerary: - Sleep in and indulge in a leisurely breakfast, followed by a beach picnic and poolside lounging - Take out the Cobblers Cove pink boat for snorkeling and turtle spotting (complimentary for guests) then unwind with afternoon massages - Enjoy a morning round of tennis followed by afternoon tea served daily - Head to town to explore the local culture and music - Seafront BBQ dinner on property with live music and fresh seafood

Crete is a hot pick this summer season, but its sheer size can be overwhelming for first-time visitors. Families and travelers looking for a convenient base close to Heraklion port and airport will fall in love with @cayoresort. Suites come with private plunge pools and verandas, plus they are spacious enough to accommodate families of four. Onsite kids' club and water activities make it an easy island to include in a multi stop itinerary!

First time visitors to Spain will try to squeeze in the major cities with the countryside and the islands, but it’s simply too much. The team at @nubainsider_es are in the know because they live and breathe their cities. These are the top pairing destinations we keep coming back to for first-time visitors because they flow instead of just filling a map. Madrid + Seville → culture, cuisine, and classic Andalusian charm Barcelona + Costa Brava → city energy meets coastal escape Madrid + Barcelona → Spain’s iconic duo for art, food, and architecture Seville + Granada → flamenco, history, and the magic of the Alhambra Barcelona + Balearic Islands → the perfect blend of cosmopolitan + island time

Did you know @palacioludovicehotelofficial has a couple of specialty rooms with original Portuguese azulejos (hand-painted tiles)?!

Day 2 in Monaco, done right with @brownell_travel and @montecarlosbm ✨ We started the morning with a classic car ride along the coast, taking in the iconic Riviera views. Time it just right to arrive at the Prince’s Palace for the changing of the guards — a must-see tradition in the heart of Monaco. Midday calls for something a little indulgent: a private tour at Le Cave inside Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, where the cellars are historic and impressive! We ended the day on a high note with an intimate, private dinner at Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo. #montecarlosbm #hoteldeparis

We just got back from an unforgettable Monte Carlo trip with the @brownell_travel team, courtesy of @montecarlosbm for the Rolex Masters!

Can you believe Q1 is wrapping up? It's been an amazing (and occasionally surprising!) year so far. From LA to Chicago and Charleston, we've been traveling nonstop and loving every minute of it, especially getting to meet so many fantastic advisors. Plus the exciting addition of @beessentialclub and @palacioludovicehotelofficial to round out our offerings in France/Switzerland and Portugal! Stay tuned for more coming in Q2… ✨

There’s more to do in Mexico than lounge on a beach! @jauntmexico has an impressive list of signature experiences across categories including art, culture, wellness, gastronomy, and adventure. Tours can be small group or privatized based on client’s budget or preferences and are always vetted by @alexxrc_ and team. Take a peek at some of our favorites: + Oaxaca: Learn to paint Alebrijes in a master class or tour the workshops of San Martin Tilcajete. + Mexico City: Enjoy an exclusive Mezcal tasting paired with a ceramic workshop in Polanco. + San Miguel de Allende: Take an art walking tour of premier galleries led by an expert. + Tulum: Visit a Mayan family, explore the Coba ruins, and visit a monkey sanctuary. + Mexico City: Experience a private, after-hours tour of the National Museum of Anthropology. + Yucatán: Explore the Uxmal archaeological site, followed by a Land Rover excursion to an unrestored farm and a traditional brunch.

We get this question all the time—and honestly, we get it. With four iconic @montecarlosbm properties just minutes from each other in Monte-Carlo, choosing the right fit can feel overwhelming. So we made it simple: a quick cheat sheet breaking down each hotel so you can confidently match your client to the perfect stay. Pro tip: Monte-Carlo makes the ultimate home base for exploring the French Riviera—think easy day trips to Nice, Èze, and Cannes. ✨

We’re obsessed with a Swiss summer! Gatorade blue lakes, quaint villages and plenty of fresh, mountain air. If your clients are requesting Switzerland for this summer, here’s a favorite 10-day itinerary from @beessentialclub that covers the highlights at a manageable pace. 🇨🇭🧀
