More and more women are venturing out into the world solo, uninhibited by social expectations or insecurities. And you know what? It's not that hard - we can do anything we put our minds too.

What makes it even easier is the dedicated staff at Uniglobe London that has extensive experience planning trips for women - both group and solo. We want to make any and all of your travel dreams possible.

Want to take a cruise with an old girlfriend? Done. Visit the birthplace of your Grandma with your Mom? No problem. Spend a couple of weeks roaming Tuscany alone? We have you covered.

One of my favorite travel blogs online is JourneyWoman.com - Evelyn Hannon has all sorts of incredible, helpful info from her many years of travelling. Plus she's a pretty funny writer.

I came across one post of hers - Should a Solo Woman Traveler Join a Bus Tour? Good question.

Her answer is yes, and we'd have to agree. She had luck with Trafalgar Tours, and we know of some even better ones for you to join.

Here's an excerpt from her post:

"Once, as a solo traveler in France, it took me almost a full day by train, bus and finally taxi to reach a wonderful village restaurant I’d read about. With Roberto and our trusty coach in Tuscany we were able to get off the main highways to make stops at treasures the average solo traveller would never have even heard of. My favorite was an authentic Tuscan restaurant nestled in an olive grove just outside Florence. It simply oozed ambience as we were treated to wonderful homecooked food, hospitality and an endless supply of wine."
