When it comes to taking a golf vacation, more people are discovering the benefits of chartering a luxury motorcoach for their trip. Our LiTRV team has curated many custom golf travel experiences ranging from buddy trips and couples’ weekends to short getaways, business incentive trips, and destination golf experiences with exclusive access to championship courses.
We have also worked with professional golfers who appreciate the convenience of traveling in a luxury motorcoach with a private driver. Last summer, our LiTRV team was contacted by the agency helping to produce the Mitsubishi Diamana Derby, which took place in September 2025. We helped to coordinate travel for Luke Kwon, Taco Golf, Tooms Golf, Sam Huang Min, and Harry Na from Ballyhack, Virginia to the Dormie Club in Pinehurst, North Carolina.
Golf vacations are on the rise. According to the National Golf Foundation, the past three years have seen record or near-record numbers of U.S. golfers traveling to play the game. More than 12 million Americans have traveled to play golf each year since 2022, up from an estimated 8.2 million in 2018.
If you’re a golfer, you appreciate that the sport offers a unique blend of relaxation, social connection, and a fun escape into nature while providing exercise, stress relief, and a sense of accomplishment. But sometimes the logistical hurdles of planning a golf vacation can be frustrating. It takes careful planning and considerable time to manage flights and transportation with your golf clubs, coordinate group preferences, and book lodging, not to mention navigating unpredictable weather and other challenges that could come up, such as crowded courses.
Why Charter a Luxury Motorcoach for Your Golf Vacation?
When you charter a luxury motorcoach for a golf vacation through LiTRV, you and your friends, colleagues or family will travel in comfort and style. Our LiTRV concierge specialist will work with you to determine which type of Class A motorcoach is best for your journey. We’ll also work closely with you to customize a flexible travel itinerary.
For a business retreat, we can secure a luxury motorcoach that has comfortable captain’s chairs, conference tables, workstations, high-speed internet and office-friendly amenities.
If you’re traveling with family or close friends and you’d like to sleep on the motorcoach, our concierge specialist will work with you to assess which type of luxury motorcoach is best for you. Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, washer and dryer, and even a dishwasher. Some motorcoaches have electric fireplaces, heated floors, and state-of-the-art entertainment centers.
There’s also plenty of room for your golf clubs and other golf gear. All luxury motorcoaches have Smart TVs throughout and WIFI access. And because all short- and long-term charters include a private driver, you can relax throughout your journey. When your trip includes overnight stays, we will arrange for your private driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.
Whether attending a major golf tournament or planning a multi-course getaway with friends or family, renting a luxury motorcoach offers a refined, flexible way to experience golf travel across the United States. Here are some vacation ideas:
Include a Short Course in a Customized Vacation Experience
Short courses are revolutionizing how people experience golf, and it’s a great option for beginners, families, and busy players who want to practice their short game without the time commitment of a full 18-hole course.
According to the National Golf Foundation, short courses have accounted for a significant share of new openings over the past five years – 41 courses, or 37% of openings – but three-fifths of them have been at higher-end private or resort destinations.
This type of golf experience could be ideal for a business retreat, or it could be one highlight of a longer, memorable customized vacation that includes stops in several cities, towns, or national parks. It might also be an option if some family members or friends are not golfers. While you play a short course, your family members or friends can relax on the motorcoach or enjoy a different excursion.
Some newer par-3 courses generating a lot of buzz include Cliffhangers at Big Cedar Lodge in Hollister, Missouri in the Ozarks, Shorty’s at Bandon Dunes in Bandon, Oregon and The Chain at Streamsong Golf Resort in Bowling Green, Florida. Other popular short courses include The Cradle at Pinehurst Golf Resort in Pinehurst, North Carolina, The Sand Box at Sand Valley Resort in Neekosa, Wisconsin, The Hay at Pebble Beach Resorts in Pebble Beach, California, and Threetops at Treetops Resort in Gaylord, Michigan.
Our LiTRV concierge can explore availability at nearby luxury RV resorts or check lodging availability at the golf resorts. Should you wish to stay at a golf resort, our LiTRV private driver will drop you off and pick you up when you are ready to continue on your journey.
Play Several Courses at a High-End Golf Destination
If you and your friends or family are passionate about golf, consider planning a golf-themed vacation to some of your favorite destinations or a part of the country you have never visited before.
Depending on how much time you have, our LiTRV team can explore options to visit one city or create a customized itinerary in a region known for its championship golf courses and clubs with impeccable services and amenities.
For example, you might choose to spend two weeks in Palm Springs, California and explore the challenging golf courses throughout Coachella Valley. Known as a golf destination, the Coachella Valley touts more than 120 golf courses, many of which are considered upscale or championship-level, featuring designs by legends like Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus.
Our LiTRV concierge specialist can check availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as the Motorcoach Country Club in Indio. Located in the Coachella Valley about 30 minutes from Palm Springs, this luxury RV resort features magnificent mountain and desert views. Set on 80 acres, Motorcoach Country Club includes a beautiful golf course as well as a 10,000 square-foot clubhouse, five-star restaurant, pickleball and tennis courts, and one of the waterways for boats. Most of the Class A motorcoach lots are enhanced with “coach houses,” private swimming pools, casitas, and lush landscaping.
Another option could be to create a customized itinerary throughout the Southwest so you can play a variety of golf courses while enjoying local hotspots, culture, and attractions. For example, if you and your friends or family wanted to extend your vacation from Palms Springs and Coachella Valley, our LiTRV private driver could take you to Scottsdale or Sedona, Arizona, where you can play at top-notch courses, enjoy fine dining and nightlife and then take a few days to visit the Grand Canyon.
Similarly, on the East Coast, you might choose to spend time exploring challenging golf courses in South Carolina and Georgia. One popular destination is Hilton Head Island in South Carolina, which received the prestigious honor of being named “#1 Island in the Continental U.S.” and “#2 Island in the World” by Travel+Leisure Magazine, and the “Top Island in the United States” by Condé Nast Traveler Magazine.
The island and surrounding area feature many upscale golf courses, with more than 40 total in the greater region, including 24 on the island itself. Several courses were designed by legends like Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus, and Robert Trent Jones, with top-tier private clubs like Colleton River Club and Congaree Golf Club elevating the luxury golf scene. The island is also a two-hour drive from Augusta, Georgia and less than an hour from the historic city of Savannah.
Our LiTRV concierge specialist can check availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as Hilton Head Island Motorcoach Resort. Set on 50 acres of fully landscaped property, the pet-friendly resort features unique lots and diverse amenities, including a pool and hot tub, tennis courts, six new pickle ball courts, shuffleboard courts, a clubhouse, a poolside restaurant, a fully equipped gym, a full laundry facility and more. The property also has a secured, gated entrance.
Plan a Vacation Around a Major Tournament
You don’t need to be an avid golfer to enjoy the thrill of attending a major championship tournament. It’s even more fun when you plan a vacation with family or friends to the region where the tournament is taking place. When you charter a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, our concierge specialist can create a custom itinerary for you that combines golf and other leisure activities. In addition, we can assist with securing tickets to golf tournaments and other VIP events affiliated with the golf tournament.
For example, the 108th PGA Championship takes place May 11-17 this year at Aronimink Golf Club in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania. There’s much anticipation for this event as it marks a major return to the club after 64 years. The first PGA championship played there was back in 1962 when Gary Player claimed the first of his two PGA Championship titles. When the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship was hosted there in 2020, Aronimink gained the distinction of being the first club to host all three of the PGA of America’s rotating major championships.
Aronimink Golf Club is about 40 minutes from Philadelphia, which is a major destination for the 250th Anniversary of the United States. Philadelphia is called the “birthplace of America” because it was the central location where the foundational documents of the United States — the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution — were debated, drafted, and signed. While most of the larger celebratory events are in June and the first week of July, the city has many special events and program throughout May, including weekly events in Philly’s parks, shops, historic landmarks, and cultural treasures and ArtPhilly: What Now from May 29–July 4, a citywide arts and culture festival with interactive performances and installations.
LiTRV’s concierge specialist can explore availability at nearby luxury RV resorts or high-end hotels in Philadelphia, such as The Rittenhouse. Should you wish to stay at a hotel, LiTRV’s professional driver will drop you off and pick you up when you are ready to continue on your journey.
Another big golf tournament coming up is the 126th U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. The tournament takes place June 18–21, at the start of beach season near the posh Hamptons on Long Island, New York. Our LiTRV concierge can explore availability at nearby RV parks or we can explore availability at the exclusive Shou Sugi Ban House, a private sanctuary and wellness resort in Water Mill, which is part of Southampton. We can also customize your itinerary so that you spend time in New York City, about a two to three-hour drive from Southampton, depending on traffic.
Whether you are a skilled golfer or you have fun playing and want to incorporate some golf outings into a vacation, consider chartering a luxury motorcoach with a private driver so you and your friends or family can enjoy each other’s company, traveling in comfort and style. Let us help you plan your trip. Give us a call at 800-369-8153, email us info@litrv.com or click on the “Get a Quote” button at the bottom of our home page.
There’s nothing more special than embarking on a new travel adventure with the person you love. Whether you are in a new relationship or you have been together for many years, it’s exciting to escape the busyness of life and discover beautiful, serene destinations and unique experiences together. One travel option that is gaining popularity involves planning a memorable road trip – only instead of traveling by car, a private driver will pick you up in a luxury motorcoach rental and take you on a curated, exceptional, customized vacation.
Why Charter a Luxury Motorcoach for a Romantic Vacation?
When you charter a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, you and your partner will travel in comfort and style. No more forgetting something important back at the hotel. Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, washer and dryer, and even a dishwasher. Some motorcoaches have electric fireplaces, heated floors, and state-of-the-art entertainment centers. There’s also plenty of room for your pets to stretch out and relax and ample room for luggage. All luxury motorcoaches have Smart TVs throughout and WIFI access. And because all short- and long-term charters include a private driver, you can relax throughout your journey. When your trip includes overnight stays, we will arrange for your private driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.
Ready to plan a romantic vacation? Here are some destinations to consider:
Big Sur and Monterey Peninsula, California — Dramatic Coastline & Ocean Views
Big Sur is a rugged stretch of California’s central coast between Carmel and San Simeon. Bordered to the east by the Santa Lucia Mountains and the west by the Pacific Ocean, it’s traversed by narrow, 2-lane State Route 1, known for winding turns, seaside cliffs and views of the often-misty coastline. Big Sur is one of the most romantic landscapes in the country, with rugged cliffs, crashing waves, and misty redwood forests. While rains caused landslides in Feb. 2024 and some sections have been closed, Big Sur is expected to fully reopen in March 2026.
The Monterey Peninsula is a stunning coastal region in Central California, famous for its scenic beauty, charming towns like Monterey, Carmel-by-the-Sea, and Pacific Grove, and the exclusive Pebble Beach, offering world-class golf, the renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium, historic Cannery Row, dramatic cliffs, and abundant outdoor activities, all with mild year-round weather.
Whether you choose to hike scenic coastal overlooks, relax on a secluded beach, go wine tasting at a nearby vineyard or watch the sun set while dining in an oceanfront fine restaurant, you’ll fall in love with the beauty of Big Sur and the Monterey Peninsula.
When you charter a luxury motorcoach with LiTRV, our concierge specialist can explore availability at charming and cozy inns and hotels within the one-square mile, “fairytale” village of Carmel-by-the-Sea or in Monterey. We can also explore availability at nearby RV parks like Carmel by the River RV Park, a boutique RV resort set amid the lush natural beauty of Carmel Valley or Marina Dunes RV Resort near Monterey.
Savannah and Tybee Island, Georgia — Southern Charm and Coastal Breezes
For a romantic coastal getaway on the East Coast, consider visiting Savannah, a charming city in Georgia that is separated from South Carolina by the Savannah River. A popular destination for couples, Savannah is known for its manicured parks, horse-drawn carriages and antebellum architecture. The historic district is filled with cobblestoned squares and parks such as Forsyth Park shaded by oak trees covered with Spanish moss. At the center of this picturesque district is the landmark, Gothic-Revival Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist.
From candlelit dinners along the river, picnics under oak trees in Forsyth Park, or brunch on a morning riverboat cruise, there are many diverse ways to discover the mystical beauty of Savannah. While visiting, spend time in Tybee Island, a quaint, seaside haven about 30 minutes from Savannah. Tybee Island is known for its wide, sandy beaches, including South Beach, with a pier and pavilion. In the island’s north, Fort Screven has 19th-century concrete gun batteries and the Tybee Island Light Station and Museum. The still-functioning 18th-century lighthouse has been rebuilt many times. Spend time together relaxing on the beach, kayaking, paddleboarding or take a dolphin or sunset cruise.
Our LiTRV concierge can explore availability in nearby luxury RV resorts in Savannah, such as CreekFire RV Resort, a pet-friendly, lakeside RV resort or Red Gate Farms RV Resort, a former dairy farm with a rich history that is also an event venue and an equestrian center. We can also explore availability at luxury resorts with spas, such as the five-star Montage Palmetto Bluff, located in Bluffton, South Carolina, between Hilton Head Island and Savannah. Our LiTRV private driver can drop you off at the resort and then pick you up when you are ready to continue on your journey.
Asheville and Blue Ridge Mountains, North Carolina — Mountain Romance
When Hurricane Helene slammed into Florida as a Category 4 storm in September 2024, no one expected the beautiful region of the southern Appalachian Mountains to be affected. Prior to the hurricane, Asheville, North Carolina was known as “The Paris of the South” and was a popular small-town travel destination known for its arts, culinary and music scene, architecture, boutique shops, craft breweries, wineries and vibrant culture. The storm was devastating, with historic floods and damage, and at the time, no one really knew what might become of the much-loved travel destination.
The good news is that the region is bouncing back, and tourism is once again on the rise. Trails have been cleared, studios have reopened, kitchens have been reimagined, and events have resumed. A 114-mile contiguous stretch of the Blue Ridge Parkway is fully reopened, giving travelers seamless access to Mount Mitchell, the Folk Art Center, the North Carolina Arboretum, and the the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
Whether you hike forested trails with waterfalls, tour the historic Biltmore Estate and Winery, or relax together while picnicking beside the river, you’ll find Asheville the Blue Ridge Mountains to be a wonderful, romantic getaway.
Our LiTRV concierge can explore availability at nearby RV parks, such as the Asheville Bear Creek RV Park or Mountain Falls Luxury Motorcoach Resort, about an hour away in Lake Toxaway, North Carolina.
Concierge Services Throughout Your Journey
Think of our LiTRV team as your personal concierge. We’ll work closely with you to customize your itinerary for a smooth, comfortable, luxury travel experience. We can reserve a premier site with breathtaking views at a luxury RV resort or we can arrange for you to stay at a world-renowned resort and spa. And because we provide bespoke services throughout your trip, you have the flexibility to modify your travel plans, even after your journey has begun. Our concierge services also extend beyond your travel in the motorcoach. Our team can arrange, for example, for a private tour of wineries or distilleries or organize other unique travel experiences.
If you and your partner are seeking a unique way to rekindle romance or embark on a memorable adventure together, our LiTRV team is ready to help you. Give us a call at 800-369-8153, email us info@litrv.com or click on the “Get a Quote” button at the bottom of our home page.
You don’t have to be a history buff to appreciate the fact that America is turning 250 years old on July 4, 2026. It really is a remarkable milestone and amazing to think how much our country has grown since the 13 American colonies severed their political connections to Great Britain with the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
Now boasting a population of 350 million people, the United States is gearing up for an historic jubilee with micro-events and large-scale celebrations across all 56 states, territories and jurisdictions. An official website, America 250, is tracking events, and Sail250 is helping to coordinate maritime celebrations. No matter where you are, it will be a great opportunity to reflect on our nation’s past and look towards the future.
From massive maritime celebrations, patriotic fireworks and Declaration readings to reenactments, museum exhibits, cultural festivals, and symphony performances, there is an extensive list of celebratory events throughout the country.
Hotels are already booking up in popular destinations along the East Coast. Fortunately, there’s another option for you and your family and friends – let our LiTRV team help you charter a luxury motorcoach with a private driver so you can travel to some of the 250th Anniversary events in comfort and style!
Why Rent a Luxury Motorcoach?
When you charter a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, you and your family or friends will travel to our nation’s 250th Anniversary celebratory events in comfort and style. No more forgetting something important back at the hotel. Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, washer and dryer, and even a dishwasher.
Just like a resort room, you can wake up with a hot shower and turn on the air conditioning if the weather is warm or humid outside. There’s also plenty of room for your pets to stretch out and relax and ample room for luggage. All luxury motorcoaches have Smart TVs throughout and WIFI access. And because all short- and long-term charters include a private driver, you and your family or friends can relax throughout your journey. When your trip includes overnight stays, we will arrange for your private driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.
Where to Celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary
Washington, D.C. will be the epicenter of America’s 250th anniversary celebrations, with multi-day programming around Independence Day, including expanded National Mall fireworks, parades, Smithsonian exhibits, and cultural festivals. But the D.C area will be packed the week leading up to July 4, and there is already limited availability at hotels and luxury RV resorts in the area. If your heart is set on D.C., our team can explore options for you, but here are three other vacation ideas that coincide with America’s 250th Anniversary:
Philadelphia, PA — The U.S. Birthplace of Independence
Philadelphia is called the “birthplace of America” because it was the central location where the foundational documents of the United States — the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution — were debated, drafted, and signed. As the colonies’ largest city and a key meeting point, it became the political heart for revolution, the first U.S. capital, and home to many “firsts” in American governance and culture.
To celebrate, Philadelphia is hosting the Wawa Welcome America Festival, which features two full weeks of concerts, family events, special exhibits around Independence Hall and booming fireworks over the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. The free, family-friendly event takes place from Juneteenth, (June 19), to July 4.
And according to Sail 4th 250, Philadelphia is also rolling out its “Ring It On!” campaign for 2026. From the start of June through July, families can hunt for 20 large replica Liberty Bells placed throughout the city, enjoy 250th-themed Block Party Bonanza kits in neighborhoods, and attend super-sized block parties with DJs, inflatables, and local vendors.
In addition, the Neighborhood Tour Series runs for 20 weeks in spring and summer, including Philly’s parks, shops, historic landmarks, and cultural treasures, and is guided in collaboration with local historians and community members. Families can also explore the city’s 52 Weeks of Firsts, celebrating Philly’s historic milestones all year, and experience ArtPhilly: What Now from May 29–July 4, a citywide arts and culture festival with interactive performances and installations.
Our LiTRV team can check availability at nearby RV parks, such as KOA South Philadelphia/Clarksboro in Clarksboro, New Jersey, about 30 minutes from Philadelphia or the more luxurious StonyBrook RV Resort in Lehighton, Pennsylvania, about 90 minutes from the city. We can also explore availability at 5-star hotels in Philadelphia, such as the Four Seasons. If you prefer to stay in a hotel for a few nights, our LiTRV professional driver can drop you off and pick you up when you are ready to continue your journey.
Colonial Williamsburg & Historic Triangle, VA — Revolutionary Roots
Whether you love history or want to show your kids where the concept of America began and how the fight for Independence started, the Historic Triangle region in coastal Virginia is a great destination to visit during our country’s 250th Anniversary.
This triangular region connects three pivotal American colonial sites: Jamestown, America’s first permanent English settlement during the 17th century; Colonial Williamsburg, the 18th-century capital which is now a living-history museum with costumed interpreters, historic buildings, and art museums; and Yorktown, where the American Revolution ended with the British surrender at Yorktown Battlefield. Together, these sites trace the narrative of early American history from colonization to revolution, making them a key destination for understanding our nation’s origins.
From June 12–14, Yorktown’s dock will host Sail250 America, giving families the chance to tour tall ships and military vessels up close. On July 4, Williamsburg’s historic district will feature reenactments, free admission to the Historic Area and Art Museums, readings of the Declaration of Independence, and fireworks over Palace Green. Or, stop by the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center to see The Great American Birthday Quilt, a collaborative project to view how fellow Americans “stitched their story” into fabric squares at participating quilt shops across America.
Our LiTRV concierge specialist can explore availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as Camp Cardinal RV Resort in Hayes, VA near Gloucester Point. Located 5 miles from historic Yorktown and 20 miles from Colonial Williamsburg, the pet-friendly RV resort is close to shopping, museums, historical sites, amusement parks, fishing, crabbing, and kayaking. The resort also features access to the Severn River and Chesapeake Bay, as well as a playground, basketball and volleyball courts, a jumping pillow, pool, splash park, and a “Bark Park” for dogs.
Extend Your Trip to Visit Alexandria, VA
If you have a few weeks to explore the area, our LiTRV team can also add Alexandria, Virginia to your itinerary, which is about 2 ½ hours from the Historic Triangle. From July 12–14, Alexandria will host tall ships as an official Sail Virginia 2026 Affiliate Harbor, part of Sail250 Virginia, the largest public event in the Commonwealth. Families can enjoy music, exhibits, public art, tours, and hands-on activities. Another highlight will be the 47th Annual Alexandria Jazz Fest on July 14 along the waterfront.
New York City & Hudson Valley — Sail250 and Flotilla Magic
One of the more exciting semiquincentennial bashes for the U.S. will be in New York City and the Hudson Valley.
Many of the Revolutionary War battles were fought in New York and New Jersey. In New York, families can explore Saratoga National Historical Park including historic Sewing Sessions and Victory Season events or Fort Ticonderoga’s Real Time Revolution reenactments.
On July 4, the Port of New York and New Jersey will host Sail 4th 250, featuring a massive flotilla of tall ships open to public tours throughout the week. The six-day, once-in-a-lifetime event will feature more than 30 tall ships from international militaries, a spectacular Blue Angels flight show, displays of rare historical documents, family-friendly festivals, cultural performances, harbor cruises and a fireworks display.
Families in Southern New Jersey can also take a short drive across the Delaware River to New Castle, Delaware, to celebrate Separation Day. This Americana festival marks Delaware’s independence from Pennsylvania in 1776, only weeks before the nation declared independence from Britain, and will celebrate its 250th anniversary the first weekend of June 2026. Admission is free, and the weekend features a Colonial-inspired parade, artisan and vintage markets, live music, and fireworks over the Delaware River, another fun way to experience history up close.
Our LiTRV concierge specialist can explore availability at nearby RV parks, such as the Liberty Harbor RV Park in Jersey City, N.J. or the more luxurious North Fork Cottages and RV Resort on Long Island in Greenport, about two hours east of the City, not far from the Hamptons. We can also explore availability at hotels in and around New York City – your LiTRV private driver can drop you off and pick you up when you are ready to continue on your journey.
Curating Exceptional, Customized Trips
Think of our LiTRV team as your personal concierge. We’ll work closely with you to customize your 250th Anniversary itinerary for a smooth, comfortable, luxury travel experience. We can reserve a premier site with breathtaking views at a luxury RV resort, or we can arrange for you to stay at a world-renowned resort and spa. And because we provide bespoke services throughout your trip, you have the flexibility to modify your travel plans, even after your journey has begun. Our concierge services also extend beyond your travel in the motorcoach.

A New Year brings new opportunities for travel, and it’s a great time to start planning a family vacation, a romantic getaway or an adventurous trip with good friends. It’s also the time of year when industry experts share their predictions for key travel trends.
In 2026, travelers are expected to focus on “togetherness,” nostalgia, wellness, “hidden seasons,” and finding time to explore their personal interests or hobbies. They’ll also be seeking more authentic, immersive cultural experiences and more customized itineraries.
But one thing that travel experts neglect to share is that you can achieve all these travel goals by chartering a luxury motorcoach with a private driver. Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features all the comforts of home including the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, washer and dryer and even a dishwasher. Most motorcoaches have electric fireplaces, heated floors, and state-of-the-art entertainment centers. There’s also plenty of room for your pets to stretch out comfortably.
Here are 5 travel trends for 2026 and why you should consider chartering a luxury motorcoach with a private driver:
Multi-generational Travel and “Togetherness”
When you charter a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, you and your family or friends will travel in comfort and style. No more forgetting something important back at the hotel. Your “hotel suite on wheels” includes all the comforts of home. And because all short- and long-term charters include a private driver, you and your family or friends don’t have to switch off driving responsibilities — you can relax throughout your journey. So, whether you want to plan a family reunion, travel to a national park with the kids and grandparents, plan a trip to wineries with good friends or travel to celebrate a special occasion, like a wedding, you’ll cherish the moments of being together as you travel in a luxury motorcoach. We recently shared some trip ideas for family reunions – read more here.
“Hidden Seasons” or “Shoulder Seasons”
There’s a growing desire for authentic cultural experiences, and more travelers are seeking less-traveled destinations and “hidden seasons” or “shoulder seasons” to find fewer crowds and more local immersion. For example, after Labor Day, temperatures are milder, and crowds disperse, making it the perfect time to enjoy a beach retreat. Spring is a great time to plan a trip to see wildflowers bloom. Some travelers are also seeking to spend time in small towns with picturesque Main Streets, cozy cafes, boutique shops, scenic surroundings and a friendly, laid-back vibe that invites you to come stay for a while. The rise in remote work also allows more people to plan trips outside of traditional holiday windows, capitalizing on favorable weather in the shoulder seasons. Our LiTRV concierge specialist can help you explore travel destinations during a “hidden season” and customize an itinerary for a memorable vacation in a luxury motorcoach rental.
“Passion-cations”
This travel trend is driven by personal interests and hobbies, with a strong desire to use time off to explore a passion, skill, or hobby. Both serious and beginner collectors often like the “hunt” or quest to find a rare or historic piece to add to their collection. And any time they travel, whether to attend a trade show specific to their hobby or on a leisure or business trip, they often carve out time to check out local antique stores, thrift stores and off-the-beaten-path shops as they search for one-of-a-kind or nostalgic pieces to add to their collections. Whether you collect fine art, coins, rare gemstones or sports memorabilia, consider traveling to your destination in a luxury motorcoach rental so you can travel in comfort and style. We covered this trend recently and you can read more here.
“Retro Travel” or Nostalgia Tourism
More people are seeking to revisit cherished destinations and experiences from their past and create new memories with family or friends in familiar places. This “Retro Travel” or Nostalgia Tourism travel trend continues to be popular, and we recently shared some vacation ideas here. Sometimes called “Road Trippin” or “Travel Tripping,” this yearning to recapture the joy from past vacations reflects a broader desire for comfort and connection in a rapidly changing world.
Whether you long for the lazy summer days at a beach or lake you visited as a child, want to rediscover the serenity of an autumn vacation in the mountains, or you’re eager to escape the cold winter and recapture memories from a childhood trip to a warmer climate, consider chartering a luxury motorcoach so you can create new memories in comfort and style.
Silent “Quietcations” and Wellness
If getting “off the grid” and taking time away from a busy, noisy world sounds like a dream vacation, you’re not alone. “Silent Travel” or sometimes called “Quiet Travel” is on the rise. The desire to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life is nothing new. But rather than planning a trip to a tourist hotspot, the Silent Travel trend emphasizes the pursuit of peace and quiet in secluded, nature-rich destinations. While there can be some overlap with “Slow Travel,” which prioritizes longer trips to fewer destinations, Silent Travel is characterized by a sense of tranquility. Whether you travel alone or with a loved one, you may choose to embrace the solitude of a quiet forest or reflect on the power of waves crashing upon a secluded beach.
Silent Travel also emphasizes wellness. Some studies have shown that spending time in nature is good for our mental health, and in some cases, it can help lower blood pressure and help improve sleep. We covered this trend earlier this year and shared some vacation destination ideas here.
Curated, Customized Service
When you rent a luxury motorcoach from LiTRV, you can have peace of mind knowing that you’re working with a full-service firm. Similar to a personal concierge, we’ll work closely with you to customize your itinerary for a smooth, comfortable, luxury travel experience, and we are available throughout your journey should you need any extra support.
What to Know About Your Private Driver
Our professional drivers have decades of experience driving large vehicles throughout the country. They are used to driving long hours, navigating twists and turns on mountain roads, and adjusting to diverse weather conditions.
Because LiTRV provides bespoke services, our private drivers often go “above and beyond” to make each journey a memorable one. For example, they can set up a decorative ground cover next to the luxury motorcoach so you can relax outside, watch the sunset or enjoy breakfast as the sun rises. They can also set up a firepit for cozy, romantic evenings.
The best part about having a private driver is that you and your family and friends don’t need to take turns driving, giving you more quality time together to enjoy your trip. You also have the flexibility to modify your travel plans, even after your journey has begun. And when there’s an overnight stop, we arrange for our driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.

Are you seeking a unique vacation this winter in a warmer climate? Or do you have a favorite winter retreat that you visit each year for several weeks, but flying or driving there are no longer options? This winter, consider chartering a luxury motorcoach with a private driver for a smooth, comfortable, memorable vacation.
Why Rent a Luxury Motorcoach?
When you charter a luxury motorcoach through LiTRV, you and your family or friends will travel in comfort and style. No more forgetting something important back at the hotel. Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, multiple bathrooms, washer and dryer, and even a dishwasher.
In many ways, a luxury motorcoach is as cozy as a warm cabin on a winter day. Some motorcoaches have electric fireplaces and heated floors. And just like a resort room, you can wake up with a hot shower and turn up the heat if things get chilly.
Most luxury motorcoaches are equipped with state-of-the-art entertainment centers. There’s also plenty of room for your pets to stretch out and relax and ample room for luggage. All luxury motorcoaches have Smart TVs throughout and WIFI access. And because all short- and long-term charters include a private driver, you and your family or friends can relax throughout your journey. When your trip includes overnight stays, we will arrange for your private driver to stay nearby so you can enjoy your privacy.
Curating Exceptional, Customized Trips
Some people rent a luxury motorcoach for a one-way trip to their winter destination, while others like to travel for a few weeks or even for two or three months during the height of the winter. When you charter a luxury motorcoach from LiTRV, you can have peace of mind knowing that you’re working with a full-service firm. We are accessible throughout your journey, and we pride ourselves on our exceptional, personalized service.
Think of our LiTRV team as your personal concierge. We’ll work closely with you to customize your itinerary for a smooth, comfortable, luxury travel experience. We can reserve a premier site with breathtaking views at a luxury RV resort, or we can arrange for you to stay at a world-renowned resort and spa. And because we provide bespoke services throughout your trip, you have the flexibility to modify your travel plans, even after your journey has begun. Our concierge services also extend beyond your travel in the motorcoach. Our team can arrange for a private tour of wineries or distilleries or organize other unique travel experiences.
Sunnier States Worth Visiting in a Luxury Motorcoach Rental
Whether you’re visiting family or friends in a warmer climate or looking to explore new destinations, there are many travel destinations in the southern regions of the United States that have milder winters. Occasionally, there may be a cold spell, but for the most part, people are outside golfing, hiking, swimming, playing pickleball, tennis, and other sports. Restaurants open their patios and winter is peak season for art galleries, festivals, concerts and other outdoor entertainment.
Here are three warm destinations worth visiting during the winter:
Naples and Bonita Springs, Florida — Gulf Coast Serenity
For travelers dreaming of palm trees, soft white beaches, and calm Gulf waters, Southwest Florida delivers. With its relaxed seaside charm and year-round sunshine, Naples and Bonita Springs are a perfect winter sanctuary.
The city of Naples in southwest Florida is known for its beautiful beaches, high-end shopping, sophisticated dining, thriving arts and culture scene, and upscale golf courses. The Naples Pier, built in 1888, is the city’s symbol, and is a popular fishing and dolphin-spotting destination. The city is flanked by miles of beaches with calm waters and fine white “sugar” sand, including those at Clam Pass Park and Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park. Within an hour of Naples are millions of acres of federal and state parks, preserves, and wildlife refuges. This southwestern region of Florida is also a destination for ecotourism and a base for exploration of the vast Florida Everglades.
Bonita Springs is 30 minutes north of Naples. It is known for its Gulf Coast beaches and parks, including secluded Little Hickory Island Beach Park and Bonita Beach Park, with its sand dunes. Nearby, to the north, is Lovers Key State Park, a popular swimming and kayaking spot. Made up of four barrier islands, the park is home to manatees and dolphins.
Our LiTRV concierge can check availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as the Sanctuary RV Resort in Bonita Springs. Located 7 miles from the beach, this upscale, well-maintained, pet-friendly resort offers spacious paved sites with full hookups, a heated pool, a large clubhouse, laundry facilities, shuffleboard courts, pickleball, and an on-site café.
Our concierge can also explore availability and rates at The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, a five-star luxury resort and spa that is nestled along the waterfront and surrounded by a pristine beach. The resort’s Signature Suites offer spacious layouts, ocean views, and curated amenities. Spa treatments incorporate local herbs and botanicals, as well as stones from the Gulf. Should you wish to stay at this resort or any other resort, our LiTRV private driver can drop you off and pick you up when you are ready to continue on your journey.
Palm Springs or Coachella Valley, California — Desert Luxury and Style
Palm Springs is a classic winter warm-weather retreat. Located in the Colorado Desert, a sub-region of the Sonoran Desert in southern California, it is known for its mid-century modern architecture, mountain views, hot springs, stylish hotels, golf courses and spas. Its core shopping district along Palm Canyon Drive features vintage boutiques, interior design shops and restaurants. The surrounding Coachella Valley offers hiking, biking and horseback riding trails. With sunny days, mild temps, and endless outdoor recreation during the winter months, it’s a dream for motorcoach travelers.
For a “big picture view” of the area, take the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway up to the top of Mount San Jacinto. Known as the world’s largest rotating tram car, the tramway takes you 10 minutes over 2 ½ miles along the breathtaking cliffs of Chino Canyon, transporting you to the pristine wilderness of the Mt. San Jacinto State Park. Once you reach the Mountain Station—elevation 8,516 feet—enjoy two restaurants, observation decks, State Park Visitors Center and natural history museum, two documentary theaters, a gift shop and over 50 miles of hiking trails.
While visiting, be sure to spend time at the El Paseo Shopping District in Palm Desert, about 25 minutes from Palm Springs. Known as the “Rodeo Drive of the Desert,” the shopping district is characterized by luxury boutiques, art galleries, and outdoor cafés.
A trip to the Coachella Valley would not be complete without visiting the iconic Joshua Tree National Park, about 45 minutes east of the valley. The unique desert landscape, where the Mojave and Colorado deserts meet, create a habitat for diverse plants and animals. Key features include its iconic Joshua trees, surreal rock formations, and exceptional dark night skies perfect for stargazing.
Our LiTRV concierge specialist can check availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as the Motorcoach Country Club in Indio. Located in the Coachella Valley about 30 minutes from Palm Springs, this luxury RV resort features magnificent mountain and desert views. Set on 80 acres, Motorcoach Country Club includes a beautiful golf course as well as a 10,000 square-foot clubhouse, five-star restaurant, pickleball and tennis courts, and one of the waterways for boats. Most of the Class A motorcoach lots are enhanced with “coach houses,” private swimming pools, casitas, and lush landscaping.
Named the City of Festivals, Indio has become a favorite destination for foodies and music lovers, attracting more than 1 million people each year for its multiple mainstream events, including the famous Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival held this year over two weekends in April at the Empire Polo Club.
South Padre Island, Texas — A Warm Coastal Escape
Winter on South Padre Island is warm, breezy, and blissfully uncrowded. South Padre Island is a resort town on a barrier island of the same name, off the southern coast of Texas. With 34 miles of pristine white beaches, stunning waters from the Gulf of Mexico, and year-round temps averaging 74 degrees, South Padre Island is a beachgoer’s paradise. Ranked # 1 in “Best Beaches of Texas” according to U.S. News & World Report, South Padre Island is a great choice for a winter getaway.
With a laid-back vibe, the island offers a chance to relax and recharge. Whether you want to read a book on the beach or take in more action by kayaking, paddleboarding, jet skiing, windsurfing, horseback riding or snorkeling, you’ll find plenty of fun on South Padre Island.
Beyond the beach, you can explore scenic nature trails or go birdwatching at the South Padre Island Birding, Nature Center & Alligator Sanctuary. Or spend the day playing mini-golf or exploring the town’s many waterfront restaurants and shops.
South Padre Island is also a short distance away from the Space X Boca Chica Launch Site, also known as Space X Starbase, in Brownsville, Texas. The SpaceX South Texas Launch site is where some of the most advanced rockets are being tested for everything from near orbital satellite deployments to the Mars mission. Launch dates and times vary, but our LiTRV concierge can keep you informed of what launches may be happening during your trip.
Our LiTRV concierge can explore availability at nearby luxury RV resorts, such as South Padre Island KOA Resort. The pet-friendly resort offers a heated pool, spa, on-site bar and grill, fitness center, and full-hookup RV sites with tropical landscaping. We can also check availability for premier sites, which include a patio with comfortable furniture and full hookups. These sites are spacious and offer free cable and Wi-Fi with a sparkling blue ocean view on three sides.
From Florida’s Gulf Coast to California’s desert oasis to Texas’s breezy island shores, these destinations offer relaxing and fun winter climates and luxury RV resorts perfect for motorcoach travel.

Frank and Sherri G. were getting ready to celebrate milestone birthdays – he was turning 80 and she was turning 65.
The Scottsdale couple likes to vacation in September, and most of their trips have been to Europe, but this year, Frank had a different idea.
“It dawned on me that I had not seen the national parks in our country,” Frank said. “It was something Sherri wanted to do, too.”
Years ago, Sherri had wanted to buy an RV and travel around the country, but Frank was concerned he could not manage and maintain it. They decided to research how to rent a luxury motorcoach with a private driver and plan a trip to visit some of the national parks with their dog, Arlo, a 20-pound Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.
Their research led them to LiTRV – Luxury in Travel, and after some conversations with both co-owners, Mike Bloomquist and Jim Colletti, the couple decided to plan their trip with LiTRV.
“We found them to be very straightforward, and we had a good, warm and fuzzy feeling about both of them,” Frank said.
Awed by America’s Natural Beauty
Because they had never traveled in any type of RV before, Frank and Sherri leaned on LiTRV to help assess which type of luxury motorcoach would be best for their trip. They also appreciated having LiTRV’s concierge, Mandy, help them plan their itinerary to Arches National Park, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef and Zion National Park in Utah, the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, and Monument Valley, a Navajo Tribal Park located on the Navajo Nation. Their adventure included special excursions, including jeep tours, sunset wildlife tours, stargazing, and other private, guided tours.
Frank said the vacation on a luxury motorcoach to so many beautiful destinations exceeded their expectations.
“The parks were beautiful…they were all unique. Everything was new and fresh,” he said. “Prior to this trip, Sherri’s favorite vacation was to Africa, where we spent three weeks on safari. When we came home, she said that this trip to the national parks may be her favorite vacation. She really loved it.”
From the geysers, mud pots and wildlife at Yellowstone to the striking, “incredible” rock formations of Arches, it is hard for them to say which park was their favorite.
Frank said they loved them all, and he was especially glad they were able to see Monument Valley.
“I grew up watching John Ford’s western cowboy movies, and I always wanted to see Monument Valley in person,” he said. “That was a very special day for me.”
Peace of Mind with Their Private Driver
Frank credits LiTRV with going above and beyond to make their vacation memorable, and he was especially complimentary of their driver, Randy.
“The driver can make or break a trip, and Randy was absolutely fantastic…he became a member of our family,” Frank said. “He always had a smile on his face, and nothing was too much for him.”
A dog lover himself, Randy and Arlo became fast friends.
“Arlo is 2 ½ years old, but he still has a lot of puppy energy,” Frank said. “Randy was wonderful with him. Normally, I would look over my shoulder, but I never had to do that with Randy. He genuinely cared for Arlo without making it feel like it was a job.”
Amenities Provided Comfort and Convenience
Frank and Sherri saw photos of the luxury motorcoach prior to their trip, but they were not sure what to expect since they had never traveled in any type of RV before.
Much like a luxury hotel suite, a luxury motorcoach features the convenience of an expansive kitchen, comfortable beds, and multiple bathrooms. Some motorcoaches have electric fireplaces, heated floors, and state-of-the-art entertainment centers. There’s also plenty of room for pets to stretch out and relax and ample room for luggage. All luxury motorcoaches have Smart TVs throughout and WIFI access.
“Our king-sized bed had a really good mattress, and I slept beautifully,” Frank said. “I have a bad back, but I started every day energized and feeling good for the entire 12-day trip, which I really appreciated.”
He and Sherri also took advantage of the kitchen by stocking up the refrigerator with food and cooking on travel days.
“The freezer was the same size as what we have at home,” Frank said. “We also appreciated having Randy’s help with taking out the grill so we could cook outside when we were staying overnight at one of the stops.”
Frank said Arlo was very comfortable on the motorcoach and he spent a lot of time cuddled up on the couch. “It was very comfortable. As far as amenities go, we had everything we could ask for,” he said.
They also appreciated that LiTRV towed a company car behind the motorcoach. “The car we towed was very instrumental in the success of the trip,” Frank said.
Customer Care Made a Difference
Frank and Sherri were pleased they chose to celebrate their birthdays with a road trip adventure to see some of the Southwest’s most popular national parks. They were fortunate to have great weather, and they loved meeting so many different, kind people throughout their journey.
They were also very appreciative of LiTRV’s team and their commitment to providing exceptional customer service.
“I was a business owner for more than five decades, and I can tell you that a company is only as good as everyone who is involved,” Frank said. “Jim, Mike, Randy and Mandy were all very attentive to details and they went above and beyond to make sure Sherri and I were comfortable and enjoying our trip. Everyone on their team is ‘cut from the same cloth’ with a genuine, shared commitment to customer service.”
Frank said that Sherri “would go again tomorrow,” and that the only thing they would do differently is to plan a few extra days at each destination so they could relax at the luxury RV resorts and explore the towns and other local attractions near the parks.
“It was one of our favorite trips, and everything turned out beautifully,” he said.
