Women's Travel Club
3 Jul 2011, 11:00 am

Started by Phyllis Stoller, who want to travel but not solo, the Women's Travel Club offers adventure travel trips, trips to sophisticated cities and many exotic locales. The first trips to England and China were small but today the club has more than 1,000 members. These are women, some married other single, who range in age from 18 to the mid80s. For $35 a year, club members get regular newsletters outlining the many trips. With 1,000 members, the club has bargaining clout, so the prices are reasonable for what's offered.

Types of Trips

The club offers a variety of trips designed so women can enjoy adventurous experiences in exotic locales, culture and shopping oriented visits to sophisticated cities, and explore countries around the world. Every trip includes some experiences that are female-oriented, such as visiting a mosque with other women or evening walks in cities where a single female might not want to walk alone. You could head to Kenya and Tanzania during peak animal migration season, with an add-on to Zanzibar; Perfect Peru, with stops in Colca Canyon and Macchu Pichu; and China's Shangri-la, with stops in Hong Kong and Thailand; Iceland and India.

Pros and Cons

This is a popular route for single women hesitant to travel solo, and groups of women who want to travel together but prefer to buy a package instead of planning the details themselves. No surprise: the dynamics of an all-female group are significantly different than when men are part of the trip. As Stoller explains: "If you lose your money, feel ill or just need to share, women will be out there for women."
