According to Skyscanner, some of the leading trends for GCC travellers this year are slow travel and cultural immersion. Tourists and families are increasingly looking to take their time, connect with local culture, disconnect from technology and minimise their impact on the environment.

HIKE THE SWISS ALPS ON A SOMMELIER TOUR

GCC families looking for an active summer holiday can visit the region of Graubunden in Switzerland, and hike with the world’s first air sommelier, Patrick Stebler. The award-winning perfumer from Chur, Switzerland offers one-of-a-kind tours around the Graubunden mountains to help guests uncover the unique scents of the region, from its distinctly crisp morning summer fragrances in its verdant valleys, to its calming, resinous top notes found in the lush forests. Beyond the olfactory experience, these tours offer a full-body immersion into the cultural fabric of Graubünden, with opportunities to meet local artisans, indulge in regional cuisine, and partake in activities like berry picking and hiking.
