By 2026, premium tourism in areas like Sochi and Crimea had shifted away from traditional luxury models. Affluent travelers are increasingly opting for unique experiences in the Arctic, the Altai region, and the Far East. The market has polarized, with the middle class seeking budget options while the premium segment remains resilient by focusing on bespoke itineraries and high-end services.
