Dear ,

Travel feeds our imagination, enriches our vocabulary, validates our values and enlists our participation to protect the physical and emotional benefits that discovery yields.

As JourneyWomen, we get off the bus. We walk. We talk. We ask questions. Travel isn't about counting countries or marks on a map. Travel is an opportunity to learn from and teach one another, respecting the diversity of our human experience.

So it's no surprise that when we travel, we actively seek unique experiences that immerse us in local cultures, challenge conventional ways of thinking and allow us to go beyond what's typical and into the unexpected. Are you ready? 

Featured Experiences from our Women's Travel Directory   

In this special advertising feature, it gives us great pleasure to introduce you to a curated selection of unique, highly immersive tours from our Women's Travel Directory. JourneyWoman does not operate or sell tours but we do want to help other small tour businesses connect with you, as travel's most influential audience. These tours are all happening in September, so don't wait! 

When you travel, we hope that you'll support a woman-owned small business, and look for the "JourneyWoman Verified" mark, which indicates the tour or retreat company has been reviewed using our specific women-friendly criteria. We also accept new listings. Contact us at info@journeywoman.com for more information. 

Join Girls' Guide to Paris on a once-in-a-lifetime experience with a National Geographic Award Winning Photographer in Georgia (the country) during the Wine Harvest Season

September 7 - 14, 2022

Join us on a photography expedition to the country of Georgia where you’ll learn tips and techniques while exploring this remarkable country with Lola Akinmade Åkerström, National Geographic photographer, author, and renowned visual storyteller.

Sitting at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Georgia boasts an exotic, mysterious and ancient culture stretching back for millennia shaped by her geographic location along the ancient silk road. Anatolian, European, Persian, Arabian, Ottoman and Far Eastern influences have all shaped Georgia’s diverse and hospitable atmosphere. Renowned for being accommodating, Georgians consider travelers to be “Gifts from the Gods”. It’s a unique destination for the adventurer, nature lover, history buff, and student of modern and ancient architecture.

And the foodies amongst us won’t feel left out. Georgian food is incredible. Not only will you be feasting on their cuisine, but you’ll learn to prepare several classic dishes paired with local artisanal wines. Georgia is the oldest wine making country in the world; Georgians have been making wine for over 8000 years with their own traditional method in egg-shaped clay jars called qvevri. Those jars are buried underground where the fermentation process happens naturally. And in September we’ll experience Rtveli – the traditional wine harvest and festival where you’ll literally get knee deep in the harvest process.
