There's No One Way to Travel Solo
June 2026
Solo travel isn’t one-size-fits-all. In fact, one of the industry’s greatest strengths is how adaptable it can be. At Women Traveling Together, there’s a style and tour for every solo woman traveler.
Finding Your Travel Style
Some women crave structure. Others want complete freedom. Most fall somewhere in between, and that’s where the magic happens.
There’s the independent explorer: the woman who builds her own itinerary, books her own stays, and thrives on spontaneity. She enjoys the thrill of figuring things out as she goes and feels energized by the unknown.
Then there’s the guided traveler: someone who values ease, safety, and connection. She wants the richness of travel without the stress of managing every detail. She appreciates having a plan, local insight, and built-in companionship.
Increasingly, we’re seeing an emergence of a third style: the hybrid traveler. She blends independence with support. She might join a group tour but carve out time to explore on her own. Or she may begin with guided travel to build confidence before venturing out more independently.
This flexibility allows women to grow into solo travel at their own pace.
