More and more women in India are packing their bags without waiting for family schedules or a travel partner. Women-only trips – small group tours designed and run for women – have become one of the fastest-growing ways to travel. Here’s why, and how to choose the right one.
- Who joins: solo travellers, friends, mothers and daughters, working women, retirees
- Why: safety, comfort, friendship and freedom
- Our women-only trip: The Rampuria Reverie, 3N/4D from NJP
- Price: ₹7,200 per person with all meals, stay and transport
Why women-only trips are booming
- Safety and comfort: travelling in a supportive group removes many worries, especially for first-time travellers.
- No need to wait for a partner: friends’ plans don’t always match – a group trip means you can go when you want.
- Real friendships: many women find lifelong travel companions on these trips.
- “Me-time”: a break from responsibilities at home and work.
- Activities designed for women: relaxed pace, conversation, creativity and fun.
How to choose a good women-only trip
- Check who runs it: a registered tour operator with clear contact details and reviews.
- Look at stays: clean, safe homestays or hotels with single-gender room sharing.
- Ask about the group size: smaller groups feel more personal.
- Understand inclusions: meals, transport, entry fees and activities.
- Know the emergency plan: who is the contact on the ground?
