Visa cardholders now have an exclusive travel platform that connects them to 10 destinations around the world and provides experience-driven travel they won’t soon forget, called Visa Destinations. 

Global partners include Star Alliance, Trip.com Group and Global Blue. Designed around why people travel, Visa Destinations offers Visa cardholders passion-led experiences, from city guides to recommendations on sports, food and fashion. 

For now, the newly launched travel platform is offering bookable travel experiences in ten major destinations worldwide: Paris, London, Dubai, Milan, Rome, Mexico City, New York City, Miami, San Francisco and Thailand. Experiences include priority access to the Louver in Paris and meals at influencer-recommended restaurants, or discounts for cardmembers of a certain status. 

"Our Visa Global Travel Intentions study shows that travelers are more deliberate than ever, prioritizing destinations they trust while seeking flexibility and greater ease in planning,” said T. R. Ramachandran, Head of Products and Solutions, Asia Pacific at Visa. “Interest in distinctive local experiences continues to grow. Visa Destinations is expanding across key global locations, using our insights and network to redefine access to experiences that leave a lasting impression while creating new opportunities for our partners across the travel economy."
