When Wanderlust Meets Lust
Picture sitting in a Parisian café and sipping wine in neon-lit Tokyo, walking through Tokyo’s neon-lit streets, or going to dance on a beach in Rio—all the while watching your favorite adult stars bring these destinations to life as sensually as possible.
That’s no longer a distant dream. A new wave of adult-only entertainment is merging with virtual tourism to offer horny fans an erotic passport to the world. The result? Interactive, travel-themed adult content, often shot in iconic locations, that lets viewers travel with their favorite stars.
The Origin of the Concept The idea arose during the pandemic with global travel restrictions. As a result, some performers began filming erotic vlogs in luxury Airbnb’s or even far-flung locations, to offer their fans both wanderlust and exciting things, living on the edge.
Now, some companies are taking it a step further by developing virtual reality adult tourism experiences for fans. Not only can they watch, but they feel like they’re right there in the action, whether it be a gentle balcony scene in Italy or a racy trip inside a bubbling hot spring in Japan.
Who’s Leading the Trend? Already, some adult creators are entering this market:
Adriana Chechik shot a series in Greece, combining sightseeing clips with seductive beach encounters. A couple of creators on OnlyFans are offering “travel porn packages,” in which subscribers pay extra for behind-the-scenes scenic content. VR studios such as BaDoinkVR are trying out 360° tour-themed adult experiences that bring filmic seduction right to the viewer’s eyes. So this is where tourism and erotica collide.
What Fans Love About It: It’s not just about sex—it’s about dream-fulfillment. After all, fans do more than just watch their favorite stars; they dream about joining them on long-distance travel, walking hand in hand with them down a crowded pedestrian street, or sharing a glass of wine before the action starts.
“My followers say that a scene shot in a city with which I am familiar feels more intimate. It is like I am on holiday there with them, not just seeing pornography on a screen,” said Derek R. Early reports would seem to have borne this out. It has undoubtedly been beneficial to the interests of travel boards. At least certain residential hotel-style hotel chains that are located in adult entertainment-rich areas give rise to irrational-sounding sponsorship deals, it is felt, which hope that fans of this material can then go to such places themselves. However divisive, the economic potential is undeniable, especially for destinations seeking to bounce back from COVID-19 travel downturns.
Challenges & Controversies, but this trend is not without its naysayers. Some people think that placing explicit images of adult material onto tourism risks destroying a place’s character, especially in orthodox areas. Others know about legal quiescence: while shooting these scenes in public or quasi-public places might end up with someone being arrested or banned.
Many creators stress that they are very cautious, only filming in private areas or having obtained permits before shooting.
The Future of Travel Porn as VR technology becomes likely the hardware of choice, as well as generally more available (and therefore affordable), it’s hard to miss travel porn experiences taking off. Imagine being able to choose your location, your star companion, or even “virtual date activities” before things get too hot to handle. If you are a fan of adventure, this could be the sexiest way to travel without ever getting off your couch!
