In a show of interest, among female solo travelers, a leading tour operator, Solos, recently announced a slate of women-only trips. This new form of tourism is designed to appeal to women-only tours from age 50 and up – an age group the company’s general manager Andrew Roberts says is increasingly interested in independent travel.
New Itineraries Inspired by Travel Trends
This is in line with a broader global trend for more women-focused holidays. Solos realised that there was a lot of interest from women looking for authentic, safe and culturally immersive travel experiences. As a result, the operator created exclusive round trips including most visited tourist spots and exchanges of inspiration.
The tours have been designed ‘cost-effective’ in such a way that there is no single supplement, making them affordable for single women travellers. This special event highlights Solos’ dedication to inclusivity and inspiring women to adventure with confidence.
India’s Golden Triangle and Rajasthan: cultural deep dive
Among the other favorites is the 12-night “Women-only India – The Golden Triangle & Rajasthan” itinerary. Travelers will visit India’s three most popular cities and attractions, collectively called the Golden Triangle: Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. The trip also heads to the royal cities of Jodhpur and Udaipur, famous for their palaces and colourful culture.
Highlights: Sunrise yoga sessions at the stunning Taj Mahal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Making excursions to Bishnoi villages for a look at rural life as it used to be, in fun-packed guided safaris. A gratifying visit to Sheroes Hangout, run by acid attack survivors, offers poignant reflections on resiliency and community.
Another interesting activity is a rickshaw ride in Jaipur, driven by women trained under Access Development Services. This program empowers low-income women with business skills to attain economic independence and is just one example of Solos’ emphasis on meaningful travel experiences.
Morocco’s Medinas, Mountains and Coasts: Empowering Encounters
With “Women-only Morocco: Medinas, Mountains & Coast,” watch the colors and textures of Morocco pop through a dynamic landscape and culture. Travelers visit bustling Casablanca, historical Rabat, culturally rich Fes, bustling Marrakesh, and the more relaxed Essaouira over 12 nights.
The program provides opportunities to meet with women entrepreneurs in Fes and expert local craftsmen in Essaouira. An encounter with Berber Women is one of the attractions of visiting the Atlas Mountains, who have maintained their customs despite modernization. The itinerary includes a visit to a rural women’s cooperative where women are famous for fine embroidery, pottery, and celebrated argan oil, benefiting the local economy.
Greece: The Wonders of the Past and the Islands Today
One such trip is the 10-night “Women-only Greece: Ancient Wonders & Island Hopping” itinerary, with travelers embarking on a fascinating historical journey over days spent exploring Athens and the Cycladic islands. Part of the program is the excursions to important archaeological sites, such as Mycenae, Epidavrus and Olympia.
On Paros Island, a satisfying lesson in pottery, taught by a local female artisan, provides travelers with edification you can feel in your hands. This activity will underscore the role of women in conserving and transmitting Greek traditional arts.
Insights from Solos Management
Kendra Guild, vice president of North America for Solos, stressed how truly special these tours are. “These vetted experiences allow travelers to be in touch with women-led collectives and give back to the community,” she said. These trips also provide opportunity for cultural transfer that can be life-long memories for those in attendance,” said Guild.
Rising Demand and Market Insights
According to industry data, more women travelers seek autonomy-enhancing, no man-required, girl-gang group trips that allow them to bond with other strong-minded intelligence individuals while soaking in the local culture. A new study says women over 50 are a major force in the travel industry, and their influence and spending bring new opportunities for areas and hotels that cater to them. They’ll seek travel products that focus on safety, socialization and cultural integration.
Solos’s new women-only holidays are the perfect antidote to these times, with itineraries that are the right mix of adventurous and safe, meaningful and fun.
Cultural Tours: The Rising Trend of Women-only Safaris
According to industry experts, women-only trips offer a positive and confidence-building environment where female travelers are more willing to take risks and push boundaries. These trips promote strong communities, growth, and shared experiences which are proven factors in the appeal of solo female travel for the modern woman.
What’s more, no individual supplement fees only add to the appeal so these are financially accessible tours. This is especially appealing to solo travelers who can find added fees on the standard tours.
Future Plans and Expansion
Named Women’s-Only Travelers Inspired by an encouraging response initially, Solos plans to add to its women-only itineraries. The tour operator plans to add new destinations, working with more local women’s groups and organizations to develop travel experiences that make a difference.
This move is part of Solos’ ongoing drive for pioneering, inclusive travel offers, establishing its status as a leading, pioneering name in travel.
The Future of Solo Female Travel Is Here
With such exclusive ladies-only tours, Solos focuses on the most important travel considerations- safety, affordability, deep culture, and significant value. With the growing trend of women-oriented travel packages, Solos is sure to be a strong player in the new travel space.
