Calling All Adventurous Women—These Trips Are for You

REI Women's Adventures are extraordinary journeys for women who want to experience the world—not just see it.

You'll travel with female guides and a ready-made group of girlfriends. These lively trips blend outdoor activities with local spots, cuisines and communities you wouldn't find on your own. Plus little surprises we dreamed up just for you.

From the African savanna to the Sea of Cortez, let's explore this beautiful world.

Journeys designed to delight you

Imagine—not too long from now, you could:

• Marvel at ancient ruins and Mediterranean sunsets as you hike Italy's Cinque Terre
• Go on safari and photograph the Big Five, including lions and elephants, in their natural habitat
• Climb the summit of Mount Shasta
• Brew cacao tea at a bean-to-bar chocolate workshop in Peru
• Linger over lunch with the owner of a beloved woman-run restaurant in one of South Africa's oldest townships
• Snorkel with sea lion pups in Baja California Sur, Mexico

Explore astonishing places

This isn't giant-tour-bus travel with a rigid schedule and a leader who never learns your name. This is indie-style adventure travel with a posse of women like you. Women who know that the road less taken is usually more fun.

We'll skip the tourist traps in favor of off-the-beaten-path highlights, paving the way for you to truly experience a place. The landscape, the culture, the food...

FYI, we love food. No matter which trip you pick, you can count on great grub, and plenty of it.

Say no to single supplements, say yes to responsible travel

We support local guides, restaurants and lodging. In the backcountry, we practice Leave No Trace principles. We strive to have a positive impact on the communities and wild places we visit.

Traveling solo? You wouldn't charge yourself a "single supplement." As you can probably guess by now, neither do we. If you're willing to have a roommate, you won't pay a penny more than someone traveling with a companion—even if we don't actually have a roomie for you. There's only a fee if you specifically request private accommodations.

Also, side note: You won't feel solo for long. Prepare to be astounded at how fast your fellow travelers become your friends.

Travel made simple and hassle-free

Travel is inspiring. Spirit-renewing. Sometimes even life-transforming.

Organizing logistics for travel is, um, not.

REI Women's Adventures let you make travel a priority without making your life any more complicated. After you register for a trip, you'll be introduced to your personal Trip Specialist—a woman who's there to help you prepare and answer your questions along the way.

Meanwhile, we handle all the fussy details. Permits, ferry schedules, cafe hours, that sort of thing. So you can just kick back and daydream about adventure.
