Keep Dreaming. We are ready when you are. While travel may be paused for now, our dreams of travel are not. We are planning our future getaways and taking time to remember the joy from our past adventures. We have put together a list of our top reasons why we love travel, and hope that this brings you happiness and inspires your future travel adventures! Here are just 10 of our top reasons, stay tuned for more each week! We are here for you. Travel brings joy in dreaming, the excitement of the experience, and a lifetime of memories that grow more valuable every day.
1 THE ANTICIPATION Looking forward to a trip is almost as much fun as the actual travel, from the moment you book your flight to a new or beloved destination, to the pre-travel planning of what you will do as soon as you arrive.

FIRST LOOKS The first glimpse of new destinations from airplane windows‌ the colors, the forms of the landscape or the density of a city, the anticipation of landing on new soil – and all the adventures that await as soon as you touch down.
SUPPORTING LOCAL ECONOMIES Our trips support the livelihoods of hotel and cruise line workers, shop owners and artisans, tour guides and restaurant workers around the globe.

PRE-TRIP SHOPPING
Nothing puts us in a suitcasefilling mood like a little something new to pack for an adventure!
4 SOCIAL DISTANCE BY DESIGN Certain places around the globe offer thousands of miles of solitary experiences for those who are seeking solitude and space. Iceland is one such place where you can be free in nature – interacting only with the animals and outdoors.

10 A DISCOVERY AT EVERY PORT The excitement of watching new destinations slide into view from the ship’s deck never gets old. Neither does exploring them. Virtuoso travelers get to explore these ports – and others around the world – with private cars and drivers, step ashore for invite-only shore excursions, and raise a glass to new friends at onboard cocktail receptions with Virtuoso Voyages.
