8 Amazing Women-Only Trips To Book For 2026 And 2027

5. Patagonia: A Horseback Adventure into the Wild — AdventureWomen

Inspired by AdventureWomen’s popular horseback riding trips in Iceland, this new tour takes female travelers to Patagonia’s legendary Torres del Paine. Participants travel by horseback to South American landscapes few people ever reach — from vast valleys and sweeping pampas to ancient lenga forests and high plateaus populated with condors.

Expect to ride around 90 miles, several hours a day, with picnic lunches enjoyed trailside amid the stunning scenery. Accommodations include geodesic domes, and evenings offer plenty of stargazing. The excursion ends with a memorable boat trip to Grey Glacier to marvel at the ice formations in the Southern Patagonia Ice Field. Like the company’s Iceland adventure, this trip helps women forge deep connections with both the land and their fellow riders.

6. Bhutan: Women’s Expedition — Intrepid Travel

Explore the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan in the company of other female travelers on this expedition from Intrepid Travel. The country’s female inhabitants are at the heart of the experience, which includes a cooking class led by local women and meals at women-owned restaurants.

You’ll visit the female-owned Tshering Farmhouse and learn to make a traditional Bhutanese spirit, enjoy tea and snacks with Bhutanese nuns at the Sangchhen Dorji Lhuendrup Nunnery, and meet talented female weavers creating textiles from sheep and yak wool at Yathra Factory. Day hikes travel to sites like the Taktsang Monastery, and the tour begins in Thimphu with a stay at a female-owned hotel providing job opportunities for local girls and single mothers. Expect long travel days (most roads in Bhutan are single-lane), and note that hot water can be limited in some places. All meals are included, though choices may be limited and many options are vegetarian.

7. Minnesota Explorer: Fall Foliage — Canyon Calling Adventures for Women

Think “fall foliage” and New England might come to mind first — but Minnesota is a dreamy autumn destination in its own right. On this tour from Canyon Calling Adventures for Women, hikes in state parks lead to photo-worthy waterfalls and fabulous foliage, while a paddle in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness lets you take it all in from the water.

The trip also includes time in the picturesque village of Grand Marais on Lake Superior’s north shore and a visit to Split Rock Lighthouse, one of Minnesota’s most photographed spots. Loon calls fill the soundtrack, and moose and black bear sightings are a possibility. Best of all, at just four days it’s a quick getaway that doesn’t require much time off — or a passport.

8. Menorca, Spain — Wild Terrains

The Spanish islands of Ibiza and Mallorca might be better known, but Menorca is just as lovely — and far more serene. Women-only tour company Wild Terrains offers an eight-day group trip that takes travelers to the island’s secluded coves and cobblestone streets.

The itinerary includes a sail along the coastline on a private catamaran, a beach picnic, and time in Menorca’s former capital, Ciutadella. Travelers also meet local women like silk textile artist Natalia Lumbreras, who shares the stories behind her work, and take part in a hands-on paella cooking class. There’s plenty of time built in for relaxing poolside and browsing boutiques. Travelers stay in a woman-owned, restored former estate where everyone gets a private room, and happy hour cocktails each evening allow for casual connection.

These trips span the full range of physical intensity — from easy-going island relaxation in Menorca to the demanding 90-mile horseback ride through Patagonia. The chart below ranks each trip by activity level so you can pick one that matches your fitness and travel style.
