8 of the best solo female travel groups to join

Who’s to say that solo female travel means doing it alone? Ditch the all-inclusive resorts and cookie-cutter group tours, and sprinkle some magic on your solo adventures by joining one of these single female travel groups. But first, why do it? 

Why join a solo female travel group?

Solo female travel groups are aimed at women traveling alone, which means you get the best of both worlds: the freedom to pick and choose what you want to do in the company of women with a shared interest in travel. No pre-existing cliques, couples, or awkward third-wheel situations, just a group of women of all ages on the quest for adventure – here are some of the reasons why we love women traveling groups:

• It’s a great way to test the solo travel waters.
• You get to share your adventures and explore the world with a group of like-minded women.
• It’s the chance to make new friends! 
• Leaving it to the experts to make the major decisions can take the stress out of traveling.
• That doesn’t mean you’re just along for the ride – some single female travel groups take care of every little detail whereas others need more of your input to shape the journey – it’s all about what suits you best.
• You can choose to join a solo female travel group based on your interests or where in the world you want to travel. 
• Reputable women travel groups know where to go and when, making sure you get the most out of your trip.
