Japan is having a moment, but most people are still planning the same trip. Tokyo. Kyoto. Repeat. Send me a DM if you're ready to go deeper.

Japan is one of the most searched travel destinations in the world right now. The data backs it up — and then some.

Fora's 2026 Hot List named Lesser-Known Japan one of the year's top destination trends, and the booking numbers are striking: Fora advisors saw a 245% increase in bookings to Hakone and a 265% increase to Niseko in the past year alone.

But here's what the numbers don't tell you: most travelers are still planning the same trip. Tokyo, Kyoto, maybe Hiroshima. Japan's most extraordinary experiences exist at a quieter frequency. The Hot List's thesis is that roads less traveled in Japan now have the high-end infrastructure to match the experience.

Behind some of the world's most exceptional hotels is a woman who poured her heart, soul, and genius into it. These aren't just beautiful properties; they're a different philosophy of hospitality.

The best summer trips are already being planned, and the smartest travelers (the ones who use travel advisors) are skipping the crowds. Same magic, half the chaos. Swipe for some destinations worth booking now.

Thinking about traveling for the Big Dance? Shoot me a DM and I can pair you with the best hotel in your game’s city.

You’ll pay the same amount, and I’ll add perks to the reservation (think hotel credits, room upgrades and more). Plus, I have automatic price tracking technology, so if the room rate drops after you book, I’ll get notified and we can rebook you right away.

The right destination elevates recognition, brings teams together, and makes top performers feel truly valued. These properties deliver standout service, memorable experiences, and settings worthy of your highest achievers.

You don't need a travel partner to take the trip. Solo travel used to mean paying double and settling for less. Not anymore.

The travel industry finally figured out that people aren't waiting around for the "perfect time" or the friend who keeps flaking. They're going. Alone. And loving it. DM me to start planning your next adventure.
