Adventure Awaits… At Any Age!
I’ll never forget the first time a woman told me, “I finally have the time and money to travel but I don’t have anyone to go with me.”
As the owner of Canyon Calling, I hear this all the time. Women in their 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond are in an exciting new phase of life – kids are grown, careers are more flexible, they’re retired, or they’re just ready to put themselves first for a change. But many face a dilemma: who will they travel with?
That’s where women’s group travel comes in.
For over a decade, I’ve been leading small-group adventures for women who are ready to explore the world – hiking the Grand Canyon, exploring Machu Picchu, and wandering the streets of Spain. And let me tell you, the women who join our trips aren’t just looking for a vacation. They’re looking for connection, adventure, and perhaps a new chapter.
If you’re wondering why so many women in midlife are choosing group travel, here’s what I’ve learned from the thousands of women who’ve packed their bags and joined us on an unforgettable adventure.

Because They’re Done Waiting for the “Right Time”
A lot of women tell me they spent years waiting for a partner, a friend, or family member to commit to traveling together, only to see those plans fall apart.
By a certain age, many realize that if they keep waiting, they may never go.
Joining a women’s travel group eliminates the endless back-and-forth of planning and coordinating schedules. The itinerary is set, the details are handled, and all you have to do is say yes to the adventure. No waiting. No excuses.

Because They Want Connection, Not Just a Trip
Yes, we visit amazing places. Yes, the experiences are breathtaking. But you know what really stays with women after a Canyon Calling trip? The friendships.
There’s something about traveling with a group of like-minded women that creates instant camaraderie. Maybe it’s the shared excitement of trying something new, or maybe it’s because we leave behind the roles we play at home – moms, bosses, caregivers – and just get to be ourselves.
On every trip, I see strangers become lifelong friends. Women share stories over campfires, encourage each other on hikes, and laugh until their sides hurt over a glass of wine. These aren’t just vacations; they’re life-changing experiences.

Because They Want an Adventure… Without the Stress
Planning a solo trip can be overwhelming. Where do you stay? Is it safe? How do you get from point A to B?
All of that is taken care of with our women’s group travel. At Canyon Calling, we carefully design our trips to be adventurous but accessible so you can focus on enjoying the moment instead of worrying about logistics.
Everything from meals to activities is planned, but there’s still flexibility, so you can choose how much adventure you want. Want to hike a canyon? Great! Prefer to relax with a book by the river? That’s great, too.
It’s travel, minus the stress.

Because They’re Redefining What Travel Looks Like in Midlife
Gone are the days when travel in your 40s, 50s, and 60s and beyond meant cruise ships and tour buses. Today’s women are active, adventurous, and eager to explore the world on their own terms.
They want:
✅ Small groups, not giant tourist crowds
✅ Unique, off-the-beaten-path experiences
✅ A mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation
✅ The chance to challenge themselves and grow
The women I meet on our trips don’t just want to see the world; they want to experience it. They want to hike through slot canyons, kayak in turquoise waters, and wake up to the sound of nature. And they want to do it with other women who share their spirit of adventure.
🩷 “This trip showed me that I am still capable of adventure. I came home feeling stronger, happier, and more alive than I’ve felt in years.” – Diane, 69

Ready to Take the Leap?
If you’re a woman over 40 who’s been dreaming about traveling but is unsure where to start, I invite you to join us on an adventure. Of course, those under 40 are most welcome too!
Whether it’s biking through fragrant tulip fields in the Netherlands, exploring the lush waterfalls of Costa Rica, hiking a glacier in Iceland, or soaking in the breathtaking beauty of the Southwest US, there’s a trip waiting for you.
And the best part? You won’t just come home with incredible memories… you’ll come home with new friends, new confidence, and a new appreciation for what’s possible.
Because adventure doesn’t have an expiration date.
