Unique Travel Experiences For The Wanderlust-Fueled Woman

As women, travel hasn’t always been as accessible to us as it’s been to men. Society has historically taught us to “stay home” rather than to wander freely around the globe (f*ck that, amirite?). While there are still some limitations and risks that come with female travel, much of that age-old stigma is changing as more women are taking their life experiences, and their passports, into their own hands — whether someone joins them or not.

These wanderlust-fueled women are also building growing communities of like-minded travelers and inspiring even more women to embark on exciting new journeys of their own. So, if you’re a woman looking for her next big adventure, consider the travel experiences below. From writing retreats to luxury girls’ trips to sustainable tourism immersions, these will motivate you to finally buy that plane ticket without hesitation.

If you’ve been dreaming about your bucket list vacation but haven’t been able to convince your crew to come with you, look no further than Gals Abroad Getaways. Founded by travel blogger Alle Pierce, the bespoke group trips business (run by Pierce and her luxury travel advisor mom) is made for, “luxury-loving, independent women seeking a blend of immersive cultural experiences, meaningful connections, and fabulous accommodations in some of the most dazzling destinations around the world,” says Pierce.

“I founded Gals Abroad Getaways because I was tired of waiting for my friends to finally commit to taking that group trip that we talked about for years but never actually took. Turns out that thousands of other women are in a similar situation,” she continues. “My mom and I have traveled to more than 100 countries and worked in the travel industry for more than 15 years. These trips are a culmination of the years we’ve spent traveling the world, immersing ourselves in new cultures, and creating lifelong friendships with our partners who help bring our bespoke itineraries to life.”

It’s not just another gimmicky tour group, either. Gals Abroad Getaways emphasizes cultivating intimate groups of like-minded women. Not only does that create a safe and inclusive space for all travelers, but it makes it all the more fun!

There are still spots left for a getaway to Athens and the Greek Isles this September. Book your next trip with Gals Abroad Getaways here.
