For so many women, the dream of traveling often comes with a caveat: “I’ll go when I find a travel buddy.” Maybe you’re waiting for a partner, or for a friend’s schedule to magically align with yours. But here’s the truth—life is happening right now, and the world is too big and too beautiful to put on hold.
As women over 50, we’re in a powerful season of life. We know what we like, we’re confident in our choices, and we’ve earned the right to put our own adventures at the top of the list. Solo travel isn’t just possible—it’s liberating, fun, and surprisingly easy when you choose the right kind of trip.
1. Join a Small Group Adventure
Want the comfort of community without the hassle of planning? Small group tours are designed for solo travelers who want instant travel buddies. You’ll explore incredible destinations with like-minded people, and still have the flexibility to wander off on your own when you choose.
2. Try a River or Ocean Cruise
Cruises are practically tailor-made for solo travelers. You can be as social or as independent as you want. Enjoy excursions with new friends by day and a glass of wine with your book by night.
3. Go on a Retreat
Yoga retreats, wellness escapes, or creative workshops are perfect for women traveling solo. You’ll have built-in activities, the chance to meet interesting people, and the gift of focusing on yourself—mind, body, and soul.
4. City Breaks Made Simple
Pick a city you’ve always dreamed of visiting and make it your own. Spend mornings at museums, linger in cozy cafés, or book a guided walking tour.
The bottom line? Don’t wait for the “perfect” moment or the “right” travel partner. You already are the perfect travel companion.
