Responsible Small Group Trips for Solo Travelers & the Culturally Adventurous
.
A vacation doesn’t start until you survive it!
For over 10 years, I’ve been filming and inspiring solo travelers with my thrilling, culturally immersive solo female adventures on YouTube. Now, it’s your turn to experience the magic firsthand!
GRRRLTRAVELER ADVENTURES are small group trips for intrepid solo travelers, who are passionate about experiencing culture, exotic destinations, authentic traditions and food. But who want to travel safely and ethically. Some destinations I have travel experience with; others, we will explore together like a special interest group (except I’ve done the work in planning it).
You don’t have to be a solo traveler to join my group trips. You may invite friends or a partner, but being a solo female traveler, I am focused on nurturing inclusivity and a family environment so all guests enjoy themselves.
This is more than just a trip, it’s a life-affirming journey.
GRRRLTRAVELER Adventure Style
Interested in an adventure trip when it launches?
You might have seen the ways I like to travel on my YouTube channel. As we will be spending XX days together in a foreign country, I want a harmonious group of travelers – with an adventurous mindset, so everyone can have a fun and enjoyable time. GRRRLTRAVELER has a strict zero tolerance policy for harassment/bullying staff, guides or guests.
Apply for the adventure by filling out the Interest Form on the trip, where you tell me why you want to travel with me (via video) and self-assess if you’re a good fit for the destination.
If all is a match, you will receive an invitation to sign up.
If invited, you have 48 hours to pay the deposit to secure your spot or it is forfeit.
I realize there may be some travelers like booking later, but a committed head count helps us to secure our spot with hotels and is a courtesy to my local operators, who committed their schedule to my group (over others). And I give advanced notice of my destination and dates to make a sound decision.
If there are no cancellations, we expect the group trip to move forward.
I only respond to inquiries about the status of our group, if you have secured your spot on the trip.
In the case a trip does not operate, deposits are fully refunded (minus fees, like if you used your credit card, etc).

Quick FAQ
Each destination trip will have its own specific FAQ.
Are these small group tours for solo travelers only?
The tours are open to non-solo travelers as well. Just let us know you would like to room together.
Do I book my own flights?
Yes. You must book your flights To and From the start and end of the tour. You can come as early or leave as late as you please at your own expense. I like to compare prices between Google Flights and Skyscanner (here’s my booking tips).
Do I need to get trip insurance?
Yes, 1000%! Travel insurance is always recommended for travel and is REQUIRED on all tours and must cover all the tour dates. Travel is unpredictable and you cannot expect the same regulations as Western countries. In the past, I used to think trip insurance, but I’ve seen too many different scenarios of travel accidents and illness, missed flights, etc.. We highly recommend your insurance cover trip and flight cancellations, delays, medical and emergency coverage, as well as quarantine in the case of COVID. You will not be able to participate on our tours without it.
You are welcome to use your travel insurance from your credit card company if it offers the destination and well-rounded coverage. I like to get trip insurance with World Nomads, because they cover adventures that other insurance companies won’t cover. But you can use this recommended trip insurance finder tool to find your own. Always read the fine print of any policy (they can be tricky!)
Will I need a COVID-19 Vaccination?
Yes, all guests must be COVID vaccinated.
As we care about the safety and health of all guests and the communities we enter, and to minimize the stress, last minute disappointment and financial loss in the case anyone tests positive beforehand, all trips require vaccination status. Proof of vaccination must be sent 30 days before the trip starts.
Please see our COVID-19 Policy for more important details.
