Noctourism & stargazing travel is trending, and we couldn’t be more into it. 💫 We’re adding these 5 trips to our bucket list — what about you?

🌔 Luxor, Egypt: In 2027, a total solar eclipse will be visible from the Valley of the Kings (a once-in-a-century event). GeoEx’s Egypt Eclipse tour may just be the best way to take it in.

🇮🇸 Iceland: What’s better than stargazing? Catching the northern lights while you’re at it. Iceland is your best bet if you want to do both.

✨ Chaco, New Mexico: This Dark Sky Park is one of the best places in the U.S. for stargazing — book a night sky tour with chaco_culture_nhp to learn all about the millennia-old stargazing practices of the Chacoan people.

💤 Okavango Delta, Botswana: Perched above the grasslands, the two new Star Beds at atzaro.okavango are the ultimate way to sleep under the stars.

🌌 Joshua Tree, California: The center of the Milky Way is visible most nights during the summer in Joshua Tree. Book the new Space Out package at parkerpalmsprings for an ultra-luxe way to soak it all in.

Art tourism is in the middle of what can only be called a renaissance (sorry! 🤭)—and we’re looking forward to a summer spent hopping from one art festival to the next. Here are three that we’re most excited about.

🧑🏼‍🎨 FestivalPageant, Laguna Beach (Jul 2–Aug 29): This festival has been running for nearly a century and is best known for its nightly Pageant of the Masters performances, where models recreate classic and contemporary works of art in life-size tableaux vivants.

🏔️AspenArFair_org, Aspen (Jul 29–Aug 2): Put on by 74thArts as part of the annual Aspen Art Week, this year’s Aspen Art Fair will feature booths from 40 galleries, immersive room installations throughout the historic HotelJeromeAuberge, and artist-led hikes.

SwabArtFair, Barcelona (Oct 2–5): Known for showcasing emerging and experimental artists from around the world, Swab is the perfect way to justify a shoulder-season trip to Barcelona.

Night at the museum, anyone? 🖼️ These four hotels let you get up close and personal with work from iconic and emerging artists alike. Get the scoop 👇🏽

🎨 TheFifeArms: This charming hotel in the heart of the Scottish highlands is the brainchild of the owners of the Swiss gallery hauserwirth. Unsurprisingly, it’s home to a collection of blue-chip art (including a Picasso or two), and you can stay in a suite modeled after a painter’s studio.

🌌 21clex: 21c is known throughout the Midwest for its boundary-pushing approach to hospitality and art. Case in point? They recently debuted the “Nightwatch” suite by chrisdoylestudio, a surrealist sleep-in, site-specific installation that comes to life after the sun goes down.

✨ hotelkensington: Beat the queue for the Victoria & Albert Museum South Kensington’s new “Cartier: A Journey Through Style” exhibition by booking the V&A Experience at the always-posh Kensington Hotel.

🌴 bevhillshotel: Under the direction of new art curator Lily Ackerman of ackermanstudios, The Beverly Hills Hotel is leaning into its status as an icon with a series of three exhibitions dubbed “Spotlight LA.” The first (on display until June) showcases the works of LA-based artist VirginiaBroersma.

Don’t call it a day trip. 👀 These destination detours are an easy drive, train ride, or ferry from popular vacation destinations—but they offer a slice of life that is decidedly different from their more-visited neighbors. Here are the detours we’re adding to our itineraries—what’s on your list? 👇🏽

🇫🇷 Champagne, France: We know it is nearly impossible to tear yourself away from Paris but trust us when we say that jumping on a 45-minute train northeast for a night or two in the champagne region is a detour you won’t regret.

🇲🇽 Puerto Morelos, Mexico: Halfway between Cancún and Playa del Carmen, this fishing village—where you’ll find incredible diving, a leaning lighthouse, and charming markets, is worth spending a day or two exploring.

🇮🇹 Val d’Orcia, Italy: With its collection of ancient villages, rolling golden hills, and natural hot springs, Val d’Orcia is a slice of authentic Tuscany that will have you falling in love.

🇹🇭 Koh Yao Yai, Thailand: Set in the middle of the breathtaking Phang Nga Bay and just 30 minutes by boat from the ever-popular Phuket, Koh Yao Yai is the best way to experience southern Thailand’s quieter side.

🇨🇦 Victoria, Canada: With more restaurants per capita than anywhere else in the country, spending a night or two in Victoria is a must for any foodie. Oh, and getting there from Vancouver—whether by ferry or seaplane—is half the fun.

Itching to see the places that inspired your favorite authors or dreaming of a reading retreat? You’re not alone in your bookish travel plans. 📚✈️ The trend is booming—these are just 3 of the literary-inspired trips that are on our radar. More details on each 👇🏽

💐 The thegainsboroughbathspa is teaming up with strictlyjaneaustentours for two weekends of Regency-inspired fun this April and October to celebrate Jane Austen’s 250th birthday. During both weekends, #Janeites will descend on the city that served as the backdrop for “Persuasion” for a series of talks, tours, and tea parties where costumes are very much encouraged.

🍾 Celebrate the 100th anniversary of the publication of “The Great Gatsby” by checking into bellesrives on the Côte d’Azur, where Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald decamped shortly after Gatsby was published, in April 1925, to begin work on "Tender Is the Night." The hotel—which is every bit as glamorous today as it was a century ago—is hosting a series of literary happenings to honor the anniversary throughout the year, including a Jazz Age-inspired tasting menu.

🥾 Whether you’re feeling inspired by “The Lord of the Rings” to take a very long walk or want to dive deeper into the countryside that many of England’s most famous authors called home, a walking tour like wilderness_england’s 13-day England Coast to Coast itinerary is the literary trip of a lifetime.
