About us
We are so glad you found WOMEN TRAVEL ABROAD (WTA)!
We are an exclusive and inclusive group of like-minded women that crave traveling in Ease, Comfort, and Style. We believe in experiential travel and deep immersion in the countries we travel to. We hire local guides that will take us off the beaten path to experience real local food and the local community. We believe in buying from local artisans selling unique one of a kind pieces.
We are Boutique travelers. Boutique travel is for women that desire to see the authentic culture of the cities they visit. A WTA traveler needs only to show up and let the magic unfold. Accommodations are SINGLE occupancy for comfort and every hotel is chosen under the strictest of guidelines. The WTA traveler is not just on vacation but on a cultural tour with a perfect mix of hustle and downtime.
We want to make sure everyone meets our expectations but more importantly we want to ensure we meet your expectations before you book a trip. No one joins a WTA trip without first joining our weekly call or speaking with someone from WTA leadership.
Use this Link every Saturday at 12pm EST to find WTA on Zoom!

Day 5 – August 23: After breakfast, fly north to KwaZulu-Natal and arrive at the exclusive Thanda Private Game Reserve. Check into your luxury tented camp where comfort meets wilderness, then prepare for your first game drive. As the sun sets over the African bush, set out with expert rangers to track elephants, lions, rhinos, and more.
Day 6 – August 24: Immerse yourself in the rhythm of the bush with morning and afternoon game drives separated by leisure time at the lodge. Wake before dawn for the best wildlife viewing as animals are most active in the cool morning hours. Between drives, relax by the pool, indulge in a spa treatment, or simply watch wildlife from the comfort of your tent.
Day 7 – August 25: Continue your safari experience with two more game drives today, each offering new opportunities to witness Africa’s incredible wildlife. Your expert guides share their deep knowledge of animal behavior and bush ecology. This evening, savor a magical bush dinner under a canopy of stars, complete with traditional South African flavors and storytelling around the campfire.

Keep your eyes open for colorful kingfishers and fish eagles soaring overhead before returning to Thanda for your final evening.
