The Best Trips for Solo Female Travellers
Want time on your own with the option of a shared experience? Join one of these exclusive trips and try camel riding in the Sahara or karaoke in Japan with like-minded adventurers.
Travelling alone as a woman isn’t always easy. While many places welcome you with open arms, others may make you feel a little cautious. To get the most out of your trip, it’s important to ensure you are as comfortable as possible. Below is a rundown of the top group trips by Culture Trip that will appeal to solo female travellers eager to explore the world again.
Volcano treks and kayaking in Guatemala
Explore the highlights of Guatemala on our five-day trip. Wander the charming cobblestone streets of Antigua before trekking to the summit of Pacaya volcano – you’ll be treated to pizza and marshmallows, cooked over molten lava, at the top. After a traditional Mayan ceremony at the ancient ruins of Iximche, travel to Lake Atitlan. See the lake from a different perspective as you kayak around its picturesque shoreline in the morning.
Island-hopping around the Greek Cyclades
Set sail for an incredible adventure island-hopping in Greece. On our eight-day trip you’ll see the best of Athens and the Cyclades, from the Acropolis to the charming fishing villages of Milos and the pristine beaches of Naxos. Swim and snorkel in crystal-clear waters, relax on white sand beaches, visit historic ruins and learn about food culture as you hop from one island to the next, ending with stunning sunsets on Santorini.
