Black Travelers: Explore Culture, Adventure & Connection
Martha Stewart has a standout favorite destination, but she says she never plans on going back to this place again. In fact, Stewart says that she never likes to visit the same place twice, preferring to branch out to a new destination instead.
Martha Stewart is just like the rest of us when it comes to travel. We all have our favorite destinations we love to rave about, along with a list of destinations we likely will never bother going to again. The only difference for Stewart is that she feels those two things for one single place.
During a recent event to celebrate the launch of Resy’s Dream Team Dinners, which pairs chefs with their dream collaborators, Stewart told our friends at People that Japan is her favorite travel destination “by far.” And, naturally, it’s all thanks to the fantastic food you can get all over the nation.
“I could probably eat a fish tartare every day,” Stewart said. “I would probably change the fish from day to day, like between fluke and flounder and tuna and hake. Anything ultra fresh. That would be very good.”
Still, Stewart noted that she’ll likely never return again. But her reasoning is actually pretty solid.
“I don’t travel back to places anymore,” Stewart said. “There are still so many places I must see that I don’t like revisiting places. Although I do have a trip to Sydney coming up, and I’ve been there before, after my speaking engagement, we’re going to do some sightseeing, see some really good stuff, and make it an adventure.”
Though this isn’t the first time Stewart has shared her travel secrets. In 2024, she sat down with Travel + Leisure to share a few more of her on-the-go must-haves, including her favorite travel hack: an airport greeter.
“I pretty much always insist on having a greeter [at the airport.] A greeter is my big travel luxury if I am traveling commercial because that greeter facilitates a lot and makes it much, much easier,” she shared. They are worth the money and I’m always traveling with other people. It makes it very exciting for all of us.”
Stewart also spilled one very fun plane tradition: “We always take playing cards on most trips. It’s so much fun to play cards.”
And naturally, she has some pretty over-the-top go-to plane snacks, too, because, c’mon, this is Martha Stewart we’re talking about.
“I will take homemade yogurt,” she shared. “If it’s a long trip, I’ll take a can of caviar, some brioche.” If only one day, she’d let me be her plus-one. See her full interview on T+L, which includes her sharing one of her all-time favorite hotels, here.
