Wild Women Journeys

Yes! Wild Women Journeys was created to bring adventurous women from all over the world together. We highly encourage women to step out of their comfort zone and book a trip even if you dont have someone to come with.

Age is just a number, If you are young at heart and free spirited you are the perfect woman for our adventures! In saying this, the average age of our groups is 20-45 years old.

Most Wild Women Journeys travel tours are adventure packed and require physical activity on most days; from swimming and hiking up mountains, to surfing and yoga, every day is filled with fun! This does mean that a general fitness level is required. As a general rule, if you can walk for 4-6 hours per day then you won't struggle on our trips. Some trips are very laid back and you won't need to be that fit, for example sailing and beginner surfing. Just know how to swim and bring a can-do attitude, and you'll have a good time! Some of our mountain treks like Everest Base Camp are more challenging and will require you to walk up stairs and inclines for many hours so it's best to come physically and mentally prepared! Even if you do have some days where your body just isn't cooperating, we support and empower each other and will only ever move as fast as our slowest traveller. No one is left behind, unless in the case of serious medical emergencies where we will make sure you get the care you need.

Wild Women Journeys prides ourself on our high quality, tasty food. We can cater to any dietary requirement including vegetarian, vegan, GF, DF etc. There is an option to add your dietary requirement information on the booking form. Here is some examples of what meals may be: Breakfasts: Cereal, muesli, yoghurt, fruit, hot foods like eggs/mushrooms/bacon (some days when we have time). Lunch: Wraps, sandwiches, couscous salads, quinoa salad, burgers. Dinner: BBQ, curry, stir fries, burritos, pasta. *Please note, food shopping for the whole trip is done the day before the trip, so if you have not listed a dietary requirment on your booking form we may not have enough of that type of food for you. Make sure you list your accurate dietary requirement, don't be worry about being "fussy"! We would rather know what you are and aren't going to eat so we can provide the right food.

Great question! Swags are a simple "bed roll" which is made of canvas with a foam mattress inside. On many of our adventures we choose to sleep in swags. This is because they are super comfy, weather resistant, and quick and easy to set up. In the outback, we generally dont use tents as there is no bugs, so we sleep outside just on the swags (yep, that means your sleeping outside!) Up north however in Kakadu we put our swags in tents so that we can have an escape from the mozzies. We also provide sleeping bags which you will sleep in side of in the swag.

Every trip is different depending on where we are going, however, most of our trips are remote so reception is generally very limited. If you are concered and need to know exactly where/when you will have access to internet, contact us and we will be able to tell you.

Let’s take on the elephant in the room: MONEY! We do our best to make Wild Women Journeys as accessible as possible and the truth is travel is the very best investment you can ever make into yourself. No we’re not just saying that to sell you a tour; we genuinely know the powerful impact that accomplishing a big trek, sailing the oceans, or canoeing a wild river with a group of likeminded women has on you. Yes you, the girl seeing these amazing adventures on her phone and yearning for a taste of the big beautiful world. It’s right at your fingertips and we promise you won’t regret it! We also work on a deposit now, pay later basis so don’t stress if you don’t have the full trip fee in your hands right now. You can bite it off in pieces, just like a yummy burrito … mmm burritos. Mexico, anyone?

Most of them yes! We do our best to confirm the dates of trips with lots of time in advance so you can do what you need to be there. Some trips however don't get a repeat due to either supply issues (i.e accomodation already booked out) or because we didn't have enough participants to cover the cost. If you see a trip you're obsessed and excited about our recommendation always is to take the leap and make the most of what's currently available so you don't miss out. Travelling is always full of surprises and no trip is exactly the same as the last! That's why we LOVE what we do and can't wait to share this life with you.

We do our best to get organised for the year ahead as early as possible. We know most of you need time to request annual leave and save those dollars before coming on one of our epic adventures! We are still a very small team though so please be patient with us, there is a lot that goes into our trips behind the scenes with local park fees, permissions / admin, organising additional facilitators and finding accomodation. If you want to be the first to know about upcoming trips we recommend signing up to our email list on the home page for instant notifications!

Don't worry! All of our tour guides have been trained on how to handle emergency situations. If we're on an Australian trip, there are excellent medical services that can transport you to the nearest hospital if needed. For overseas trips, we also research ahead and educate ourselves on emergency services and will have all the right numbers to call along with first aid on hand. If you get unwell on a trip and don't feel like you can continue, we will help you get back to the nearest city so you can get home and get better! We always recommend bringing lots of warm clothing as it can get very cold overnight in some places. It's also a good idea to have a small personal medical pack with cold and flu medications, regular painkillers, blister aids and disinfectant for any cuts and scratches.
