So you're thinking about joining a group trip—or maybe you've traveled solo before and you're wondering if this whole group travel thing is really worth it. Well, sit back, grab a mimosa (or some sweet tea), and let me spill the real tea on what no one tells you about group travel—but trust me, you need to know.

1. It’s Not Just a Trip—It’s a Vibe

Group travel isn’t just about going somewhere—it’s about going together. There’s a special kind of joy that comes from vibing with like-minded women, especially when everyone shares culture, laughs, and a good old-fashioned line dance moment on a yacht in Dubai. This ain’t no regular travel. This is Auntie-approved adventure.

2. You’ll Make Travel Besties You Didn’t Know You Needed

You might come in knowing no one, but you’ll leave with a whole new sister circle. Whether it’s that one auntie who always has snacks in her purse or the one who makes the trip playlist, these women become your crew. And yes, some of our ladies have gone from “strangers on the bus” to “Godmommas to each other’s grandbabies.” Facts.

3. You Can Still Have ‘Me Time’

Introverts, rejoice! Group travel doesn’t mean you’re glued to folks 24/7. You’ll have plenty of downtime to rest, journal, shop solo, or sip wine with a view—all without feeling rude. Most itineraries (ours included!) balance activities with free time because grown women know how to pace themselves.

4. Matching T-Shirts Are a Thing… and You’ll Love It

You may think, “I’m not doing all that matching stuff.” But honey, the moment you step off that tour bus in your custom Auntie tee and folks start snapping pics like you’re celebrities—you’ll get it. It’s unity. It’s pride. It’s a whole mood.

5. Some People Will Get on Your Nerves—And That’s Okay

Let’s keep it real: every family reunion got that one cousin... and group trips can be similar. Not everyone will be your cup of tea, and that’s alright. A smile, a deep breath, and a lil’ distance go a long way. The key is remembering why you came: joy, culture, and connection.

6. Roommate Matching Can Be a Game-Changer (and Surprisingly Fun!)

Worried about sharing a room? Don’t be. With proper matching (like our Auntie Roommate Match Program), you’ll be paired with someone who gets your vibe—whether you like it chilly at night or need silence to sleep. And some roommate matches have turned into lifelong travel buddies.

7. The Magic Happens Between the Itinerary Stops

Yes, the Eiffel Tower is iconic, and the Pyramids are breathtaking. But it’s the bus ride laughs, the impromptu dance parties, and the stories swapped over breakfast that really make it magical. These in-between moments? Priceless.

8. You’ll See Yourself Represented—And It’s So Healing

There’s something powerful about seeing women who look like you living their best lives abroad. When we show up—confident, cultured, and carefree—it sends a message: we belong here. And that kind of representation? It hits different.

9. Planning Is Stress-Free (Finally!)

Forget stressing over flights, hotels, and what to do each day. When you travel with us, it's already handled. You just show up, pack your flyest outfits, and let us do the rest. No spreadsheets, no guesswork—just pure ease and enjoyment.

10. Once You Do It, You’ll Be Hooked

Warning: group travel is addictive. The sisterhood, the stories, the laughter, the luxury—once you’ve had a taste, solo trips might feel a little too quiet. You’ll find yourself counting down to the next adventure, and we’ll be right here waiting with your spot ready.

Ready to See What the Hype Is About?

If you’ve been on the fence about joining a group trip, let this be your sign. Whether it’s the soul of Ghana, the glam of Dubai, or the culture of Toronto—we’ve got a trip that’s calling your name.
