Dear Travelers:
  

Welcome to the colors, sights, sounds, and tastes of woman's travel. We make it simple for you to travel without a best friend, your sister or a husband. Who travels with us? Married women whose husbands may not wish to travel as much as we do, single women who don't like to be on a tour with all couples or traveling solo, divorced women rediscovering their world, widowed women reinventing life chapters and enjoying fresh adventures. Some may be cancer survivors celebrating each day. We may be noting special birthdays and significant milestones. Some of you are taking your first trip abroad while others are well seasoned travelers. Wherever you are on your life's journey, we welcome you to join us, make new friends, and share memorable traveling experiences with a small group of active women living their dreams.

It is not too early to reserve your space on our annual 2015 Chelsea Flower Show and English Garden Tour. The English Countryside never ceases to stir the imagination and senses. Our recent trip had lovely weather and we missed the rain except for one day and that was the day we were on the motorway traveling from Kent to Bath. When we arrived in Bath, the sun was shining in time to walk to a gastro pub for traditional fish and chips. The women travelers, as always, join together into spirited groups arriving as strangers and departing as friends. Gardens, castles, pubs, museums, theatre, afternoon tea and more weave together on this trip to create memorable experiences

  Last Call for Turkey in Autumn 

 

We have room for one more traveler on this exquisite sampler of Turkey. Our upcoming September trip to Turkey is timed perfectly for fall weather after the intense heat of summer. Turkey is a mosaic that combines ancient and modern unlike anyplace else. Arrive in Istanbul, one of the world's truly remarkable cities, full of distinctive architecture, bustling markets, Ottoman restaurants, and fascinating neighborhoods straddling two continents. We will fly to the fairytale landscapes of Cappadocia which is a landscape unlike many others. You will walk the ancient ruined city of Ephesus and other historic sites as we meander along the Aegean coast ending in Bodrum, one of the world's best ports. Turkey offers you hospitality that is genuine with people who are friendly and excited to be hosts to visitors. There is a refreshing exchange between visitor and local. Language is still catching up and our local guide is a wonderful conduit for us to discover and experience the riches of this land known as the cradle of civilization.

The Best of South Africa 2015           

 

The Best of South Africa, using a natives viewpoint, is truly a one of a kind trip and one you will not want to miss. Some of you already know I have been researching and collaborating on this trip for months. It takes time, resources, and excellent local knowledge to handcraft exceptional tours editing the pieces all together for a beautiful result; a tour that gets off the paved road and into the heart of the place. I am truly blessed to be working with a native South African woman who is renowned Nationally and Internationally for her work in the arts and, on occasion will orchestrate, tours in her homeland for select small groups. As her as our our private guide throughout the journey, we will savour the local experiences and connections only a native has access to. Together, we have crafted a stunning itinerary in a country that is beloved the world around. From the wilds on safari at Kruger National Park to the coast, mountains, cities and villages, we will immerse ourselves in this wonderland. The final details are almost complete and this trip will be online for your review. In the meantime, I hope I have planted a seed for your South African journey with us. You won't be disappointed..

May the wonder and sweetness of each summer day transform your moments.
