Women’s Travel Tours
In recent years, the women’s travel niche has become an increasingly popular segment of the travel industry as droves of women flock to tours designed specifically for the ladies. But what kind of person does this, and why is it appealing?
For many singles, traveling in groups is easier, safer, and more enjoyable than traveling completely unaccompanied. It’s no wonder, when you consider that there are now more single than married women for the first time in US history. Many of these women want to travel, and they choose not to let the lack of a partner stop them. Of course, they could simply travel alone. But, many people just aren’t comfortable or don’t have fun traveling solo. Besides, if you break out laughing all alone at a table for one, people might think you’re rather strange!
Single women. If you’ve ever been a single woman at an event with mostly couples, then you know how alienating in can feel to be the odd woman out. On the other hand, perhaps you don’t want to meet Larry from Sheboygan on a singles cruise either. You’re not looking for your soul mate; you just want to enjoy a fun vacation!
Married women. It’s not uncommon for married couples to have wildly different ideas about what makes an enjoyable vacation. For example, you might be daydreaming about seeing Michelangelo’s David in Italy, while he’s daydreaming about taking his fishing rod on a date with…a halibut.
Divorced women. If you don’t have a husband to join you on your travels, this is no reason to stay home! In fact, the opposite is true. Many times, women find that during their married years they’ve largely gone along with what their husband wanted. Now that they’re single, they finally feel free to do thing they’ve been looking forward to. Here I come, Greek Islands!
Widows. No matter how happy or sad your marriage may have been, you need to move on and make a life of your own. Getting out into the world and enjoying the sights with a group of women is a wonderful way to accomplish this. Sure, you could travel with your niece, but isn’t it strange how relatives often want you to pay for their trip too?
Girlfriend getaways. Get together with a group of your female friends and take a ladies-only trip where you can all relax and enjoy one another’s company. This is a great way to be able to let your hair down and enjoy some female bonding time. You can have some great heart to heart girlfriend talks, or just laugh and have fun!
Distant friends. Perhaps your sister lives across the country, but you stay in touch and spend a few days together whenever you can. Or, maybe you meet up with your best buddies from college each summer. These kinds of tours are great for keeping these important friendships going.
Moms and daughters. If you want to understand your mom in a whole new way, try going on a vacation together. You might find it’s quite different than a family vacation where she’s catering to everyone else’s needs. My mom went with me to Costa Rica, and I had a ton of fun seeing her adventurous side shine through.
The girls. Maybe you see each all the time; you live in the same town, after all. That doesn’t mean you can’t sneak away for a couple of days. Leave the kids and husbands at home while you pamper yourselves with a spa weekend. You’ll come back feeling refreshed, and not only from the hot rock massage!
In reality, a women’s trip has an entirely different feel than a mixed group. You can talk freely with your girlfriends in a totally uncompetitive atmosphere.
Our kayaking guide told us that women’s groups always do well, but couples? Well, not so much. While they’re supposed to be vacationing, enjoying the kayaking, they’re often arguing instead. Who needs that? Perhaps there’s a women’s tour in your future!
