December 2025

Holiday Greetings! No matter what you celebrate, we here at Wellness Travel University hope the season is filled with joy and good cheer.

 

As the year comes to a close, we want to remind you of all of the benefits of becoming a WTU Gold Certified Travel Advisor. Aside from being highlighted as a wellness expert within the Advisors section of our website, you will also have access to a wealth of information that will help you plan trips for your clients. Among our offerings are specialty courses and webinars. In fact, we are very excited about working with Six Senses to present quarterly webinars featuring cutting-edge insights. The first edition of the new year will take place March 11. Stay tuned for more details.

A big part of wellness is keeping the mind active and experiencing new things. Perhaps that’s why skillcations, where travelers can learn to throw a pot, learn a language or commune with a falcon, are becoming ever more popular.

Perhaps you’ve never equated wellness with a dude ranch vacation. But think about it. Dude ranches are located in nature’s wide open spaces. Being around horses can be therapeutic. And many luxury dude ranches have added spas to their wellness offerings.

Variations of health and wellness tourism are popping up in the most unexpected places. Ghana is one place that is starting to draw travelers interested in its modern wellness centers.
 

While most first-time travelers to Japan focus on Tokyo and Kyoto, the wellness-wise wander off to the countryside. The island of Kyushu is filled with traditional Japanese wellness experiences, from onsens to tea ceremonies.
