Wanderlust and travel are some of the most popular hashtags on social media and people love to show off their wonderful holiday experiences.

The boom in the need for unique experiences has led to the emergence of high-end travel agencies who dedicate themselves to providing wealthy customers with experiences that suit their specific tastes and needs.
The key trends in customized vacations are specialized trips and highly personalized trips. Personalized trips give travellers the chance to feel like royalty with a concierge at your every beck and call and luxury cars that can take you anywhere.

Customized holidays have as a result become popular with wealthy individuals and groups in China who want to travel the world without compromising on the quality they are accustomed to at home. Imagine being able to have a boutique closed so that you and your friends can shop in peace and quiet and having a private jet on call. These are the types of experience you can expect when you pay for these curated holidays.
Depending on the amount of money you have and where you want to go, you can visit the Vatican or go for a private viewing of the British Crown Jewels, and this can be arranged by the world class travel agents that understand that you want an experience very few people can say they have had.
