Adventure tours for women, from Croatia to Slovenia
by JourneyWoman (Sponsored)
Adventure means many things – it can be the thrill of pushing yourself physically, connecting with your inner spirit, embracing the wonder of the unexpected or learning something new about yourself. But it all starts with having the right mindset – being open, curious and adaptive.
This curated selection of tours from our Women’s Travel Directory features selected experiences for adventurous women. We invite you to leave a review for a tour company you’ve travelled with on their listing page and help them improve their service to you. 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 specific women-friendly criteria. One small favour: if you book a tour from our directory, please let the tour operator know you read about it on JourneyWoman!Â
