What we're about
This group is for solo female travelers who don’t want to wait on their friends to finally say “yes” to travel. Life is too short and the world is so big!
The trips in this group are usually 90% solo female travelers. So let’s travel together with fun, like-minded travelers! If you have an open mind and are kind to fellow travelers; you will fit in perfectly on these trips!
If you’d like to host a meetup in your area (i.e. a dinner or brunch or any other activity), feel free to let us know and we’ll help you get it set up in the group!
Note : The people on these trips are from all over the States, but you’ll always be connected with people from the same city on a trip so you can meet up face to face and get to know your future travel partners prior to the trip. You’ll also be connected to the whole group via email and WhatsApp prior to the trip so you can virtually get to know those that are from different areas. On average, the people on each trip are 90% solo travelers, but it’s hard to predict the exact demographic for each trip so please keep this in mind.
Feel free to join the Facebook Travel Forum to connect with past travelers on these trips, see pictures, ask questions, funny travel memes, travel related articles, etc. : https://www.facebook.com/groups/613025845523107
The trips in this group are put on by a completely female-owned and operated tour company called Globe Drifters and they focus on small group trips geared towards solo travelers with the mission of giving new meaning to travel by putting the human experience at the heart of their trips. The groups are small with 10-12 people maximum per trip and about 90% of everyone on each trip are solo female travelers so you’re not stuck being the odd man out on trips with mostly couples. You’ll have the best of both worlds; solo travel with the security of a small group of other solo travelers for some company on your adventure! To contact Globe Drifters directly, you can email info@globe-drifters.com .
COVID UPDATE: A new, more flexible booking policy means that you can plan your future travel with complete peace of mind. If your trip is canceled prior to departure in the event of a COVID-19-related reason, a full refund will be made.

A slow-paced, small group trip through Iceland… There’s so much to do and see in Iceland and it can be really hard to fit all in one trip. Lots of fast-paced tours cram everything into 5 days, but we’re going to take our time and travel at an easy-going pace along the Ring Road in 11 days which means no rushing on and off the bus with only 10 minutes to hurry up and take a few pics at every stop. Our small group size will also let us see some of the off-the-beaten path spots in Iceland :
- Mykvan Hot Springs : We’ll visit the bucket list Blue Lagoon, but Mykvan are less crowded and very relaxing for a perfect zen moment.
- Secret Iceberg Lagoon : Take a zodiac to a “hidden” iceberg lagoon where we’ll be the only ones. Just you and huge icebergs up close & personal!
- Beer spa & jacuzzi : Soak in beer-filled jacuzzis with snow-capped mountains as a backdrop while sipping on your favorite lager.
Included :
- 10 nights accommodation (double occupancy)
- Local Icelandic guide throughout
- Private ground transportation in private 4x4 minibus
- Most activities
- Blue Lagoon visit
- All breakfasts
- Airport pick-up

Città della Pieve
Experience small town Italy like a local… Tuscany conjures up dreams of life at a slower pace; where you can soak in the culture, food, and picturesque vistas of the Italian countryside. Stroll through narrow passageways of medieval villages perched on hilltops. Pick out cheese & wine at the market in town and chat with the locals selling amazing cheeses. Then, head back to your 18th-century luxury villa passing olive groves just in time for an amazing Tuscan sunset. Tuscany is the dream vacation and now is your chance!
