Travel with ease
Affordable Small Group Trips for Women
Imagine a wonderful holiday with like-minded women that you don’t have to plan yourself. We will take care of everything! Going on vacation solo can be boring. We’ll throw in some fun bonus activities and shared meals so you won’t feel lonely. But leave free time for you to enjoy either on your own relaxing or visiting more sights with your travelmates. Each trip is curated and we keep our groups small for maximum enjoyment. You aren’t just a number, and you might just make friends for life!
Affordable
Most tour and travel companies charge a ton for group trips (upwards of 3k has never been in our budget!), and solo travelers often pay more. Affordability is super important to us, so every room is shared and cost the same unless you prefer to have your own. Let us know in your registration form if you have special needs or want a solo room.
Curated
We include a few cultural activities along with wellbeing workouts and yoga, and some shared meals together. Then leave free time to explore on your own, just relax and to try local food that interests you. We’ll give you some ideas on local activities and restaurants, and have optional activities you can add onto your trip.
Meet People
It’s nice to travel with other people to have a richer experience. Doesn’t hurt having someone take your photo for the gram too. We keep our trips small, max 6 people, so it doesn’t feel overwhelming for our introverted friends. We try to match similar personalities together for a joyful experience. And we give free time if you want to go out on your own.
Short and Sweet
Not everyone has the ability to take a week or two off from work so we keep our trips 5-7 days long. But we can help you add more days before or after if you prefer! We have spent years curating dream vacations and retreats so leave it to us to plan everything so you can relax. We include breakfast and dinner each day and let you explore for lunch.
YOUR destination
Paphos, Cyprus
Paphos (also known as Pafos), a charming city on the western coast of Cyprus, is a true treasure trove of history and culture. With roots dating back to the Neolithic period, it’s a place where ancient stories come to life. As the legendary birthplace of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty, Paphos is home to fascinating ruins, including villas, palaces, theatres, fortresses and tombs from the Classical, Hellenistic and Roman eras. It’s no surprise that Paphos has earned its spot on UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites for its natural and cultural significance. The city is divided into two parts—Old Paphos and New Paphos—and is renowned for its stunning white-sand beaches and many historic landmarks. Once a vital port during Roman times, Paphos saw its prominence fade when the British colonised Cyprus. Today, this picturesque harbour has reinvented itself as a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from all over the world.
Sample Itinerary
During the time of Lent, eating meat, dairy products and eggs are forbidden and people “fast” by obtaining from these foods. This is why Cyprus becomes a vegan heaven where restaurants and bakeries across the country serve more “Nistisimo” options. Below is a sample itinerary to give you an idea, but this could change so the final schedule will be sent to you a week before the trip.
Day 1 – Welcome to Cyprus!
Arrive at Parphos Airport and make your way to our accommodations. We will have a welcome meeting and introductions at 6pm to get to know each other then head to our vegan feast at a nearby local restaurant (included). Rest peacefully and get prepared for a fun-filled couple of days with our group.
Day 2 – Walking Tour of Paphos
Wake up to a breakfast buffet then we head out at 9:00 am for our city walking tour that gives you a better feel of the local life and a better understanding of Paphos cultural past and present. Explore the fruit market, the old market, Ayia Sofias Mosque, Khan of Imbrahim, Atticon cultural centre and Markideio theatre, the Town hall square and the beautiful neoclassical buildings. The walk continues to Moussallas and Agios Theodoros Metropolitan church and the ethnographical museum. Then we’ll have free time for lunch (not included) and shopping. Dinner we will have together (included). And if everyone is feeling up for it, we’ll have a gentle yin yoga or guided meditation.
Day 3 – Day Trip
Head out early in the morning into the Troodos Mountains with this cultural tour. After a visit to the coastal Aphrodite’s Rock, you’ll make your way inland, visiting traditional villages such as Lofou and Omodos along the way. You’ll also stop at the Timios Stavros Monastery and the Millomeris Waterfalls, with wine tastings and a break for lunch in Platres along the way (lunch not included). Dinner will be ready and waiting after you relax a bit. It will be a busy day so the evening will be chill.
Day 4 – Free Day
It’s been a busy time so far so we give you time to yourself. You can join us in a morning stretch and workout then enjoy a breakfast buffet. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy! Lay by the beach, explore Paphos, take a day trip to a nearby city or schedule a cooking class or private yoga session with Christy. You’ll have lunch on your own or with your travel mates (not included), then we will come together again in the evening for skill sharing opportunities and make dinner together (included) where Christy will teach you some new recipes..
Day 5 – Free Day
Another free day so you can choose what you would like to do today. Join us in a morning stretch and workout then enjoy a breakfast buffet. The rest of the day is yours to enjoy! Lay by the beach, play beach volleyboy, enjoy watersports, explore Paphos or take a day trip to a nearby city. You’ll have lunch on your own or with your travel mates (not included), then we will come together again in the evening for our last dinner out together (included).
