What Makes AdventureWomen Extraordinary

For Women, By Women, and Women Owned

Why Travel with AdventureWomen

AdventureWomen has been offering memorable travel experiences created for women by women for more than 40 years. Our guests include solo travelers and first-time adventurers, friend groups, mothers, daughters, and sisters and we have a wide range of trips to accommodate all interests and activity levels.

40+ Years of Creating Adventure

Founded in 1982 by travel pioneer Susan Eckhart and purchased in 2017 by Judi Wineland (herself a travel icon as the one of the first women to launch and run an adventure travel company, and the founder of Thomson Safaris, Thomson Treks, Thomson Family Adventures, and Thomson Collection), we are dedicated to helping women explore and discover the world.

Solo, Not Alone

AdventureWomen is more than a travel company. We are a relationship company. In fact, many of our guests choose to travel solo! Each trip offers a singular opportunity to make new friends and develop meaningful connections that often last for a lifetime.

Small Group Size

Our small group sizes—ranging from 8 to 15—set the stage for making lasting memories and real human connections. Our intimate groups also allow us to handpick 4-star accommodations and unique regional dining experiences at every stop so you can travel with confidence and comfort.

Women-to-Women Experiences

Every AdventureWomen trip offers guests the opportunity to connect with local women artists, chefs, and entrepreneurs on the ground. We are proud to have supported women-owned businesses around the world since 1982, opening doors to authentic experiences for our guests wherever we go.
