Here are Texans’ Most Popular Luxury Vacations for This Year

I'd like to think I'm a seasoned veteran in the vacationing biz, only because of the "Rudy Cruise!" We vacationed together with our listeners for 14 years straight. Then, COVID-19 hit and all the pandemic regulations put a halt on the infamous Rudy Cruise!

As I start looking forward and starting to plan for another "Rudy Cruise" with listeners, the following information I obtained is great information to have. I've learned that the Top 5 Destinations Texans are looking at for their 2024 vacations are real 'Dream Vacation' destinations.

• Hawaii (9,300 average monthly searches): This is my boss's favorite place in the world! Hawaii is known for its landscapes, volcanic peaks, and pristine beaches, Hawaii is a paradise for nature lovers. You can enjoy water activities, explore ecosystems, and unwind in breathtaking surroundings.
• Turks and Caicos (9,010 average monthly searches): This secluded sanctuary boasts turquoise waters and pristine beaches, providing an exclusive escape for those looking to indulge in luxury.

Since the pandemic put a halt on travel outside of the country it appears that after four years we are back! Texans are more apt to look toward international travel though. A lot of us are swapping our staycations for our bucket-list adventures. Furthermore,  those dream trips that were once just a dream are becoming reality post-pandemic.

My advice is "Take that lifelong dream vacation and leave a little room for a future Rudy Cruise to come." Bon voyage y'all.
