Is AdventureWomen Right for Me?
Thinking about joining us? Many of our guests are looking to experience new destinations, try new foods, be introduced to new ways of seeing the world, and to get out of their comfort zone. And most arrive with a few common questions:
–Am I active enough?
–Will I fit in with the group?
–I am going alone. Will I make friends?
–Will I need to worry about planning and accommodation details?
The answer is simple. We’ve got you covered. You are exactly who AdventureWomen was created for.
Our guests are curious women of all ages and fitness levels who are looking for travel that is welcoming, enriching, and active. Some are experienced travelers, and many are embarking on their first solo adventure. But no one is alone for long. In fact, most first-time guests who join us as solo travelers return home with lifelong friendships and future travel companions.
There’s an Adventure for Every Activity Level
One of the biggest misconceptions about adventure travel is that every trip involves climbing mountains.
Not at AdventureWomen. Our thoughtfully designed five activity levels make it easy to choose a trip that matches your interests, comfort level, and fitness.
Level 1 — Easy Pace
Perfect for women who enjoy leisurely walks, cultural exploration, scenic visits, food an wine, and immersive experiences. Ideal if you are new to active travel.
Level 2 — Moderate
A comfortable balance of activity and relaxation. Think easy hikes, kayaking, biking, walking tours, and plenty of opportunities to experience local culture.
Level 3 — Dynamic
Designed for women who enjoy regular physical activity and want to challenge themselves without being extreme.
Level 4 — High Energy
For experienced hikers and active travelers seeking longer days, elevation gain, and rewarding adventures.
Level 5 — Challenging
Bucket-list adventures requiring excellent fitness, endurance, and preparation. Whether that’s Kilimanjaro or Patagonia, we’ll help you prepare every step of the way.
Not sure which level is right?
Our travel experts personally are available to help every guest choose the perfect trip for them.
Traveling Solo? You’re in Great Company
More women than ever are choosing to travel independently—but that doesn’t mean they want to travel alone. Since our founding 40+ year ago, AdventureWomen has specialized in solo travel for women.
Our small groups (typically 8–15 women) create an environment where conversations happen naturally, friendships develop quickly, and everyone feels included.
You’ll never have to worry about eating alone, navigating unfamiliar destinations by yourself, or wondering if you’ll fit in. Many guests tell us the friendships they make become one of the most memorable parts of their journey. Every AdventureWomen trip is about traveling solo but never feeling alone.
