Friendship and sisterhood aren't just what we strive for in our tours,
they are the very foundation of our company.

Sometimes you meet another woman and you just KNOW that she is going to be a friend for life. It's an immediate bond that transcends cultures, ages and even geography.

 

In 2018, 2 of our founders met at a surf camp that one of them owned in Spain. A year later a litter of abandoned baby opossums in Brazil became the catalyst for a new sister to be added to the mix. Together, we've weathered heartbreak, navigated a global pandemic and gone through some crazy life changes, always ready to support each other however we can. It's the sense of sisterhood that we believe all women should experience, and it's the driving purpose behind Women's Adventure Travel Network. 

 

Through our tours, we seek to bring together women who want to expand their own sense of self confidence and build new bonds of friendship while lending support to their sisters in other communities around the world. So come, join our girl gang, and lets adventure together!

Shelley
Adventure Facilitator - US & Caribbean

You know the adage about a cat having 9 lives? That's me, only with careers. I've worked as strength coach to pro athletes, practiced as a lawyer, been a multi-sport athlete, a professional dancer, an adult model, a magazine publisher, a concert promoter, solo backpacker and now adventure tour operator. You could say that I've made an art form of continually proving that you can redefine yourself at any age. I absolutely thrive on trying new things, meeting new friends and introducing them to new adventures. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Liza
In-Country Travel Liaison - Latin America & Asia

Fluent in six languages (yes, six!), I've made it my mission to connect with people from all walks of life and uncover the hidden gems that make each destination unique. Whether it's sharing a meal with locals in a remote village or navigating bustling city markets, I thrive on the authentic experiences that give travel its true flavor.

As a foodie and culture enthusiast, I believe the best way to discover a place is through its food, traditions and people. My passion is guiding fellow travelers off the beaten path, revealing the lesser-known spots that capture the essence of a place—those special corners where you'll find the soul of a country.

Join me on a journey that's not just about ticking off tourist attractions, but about creating unforgettable memories, forging connections, and embracing the adventure that each new destination brings. Let's explore the world together, one authentic experience at a time!

Tereza
Tour Coordinator - EU & Africa

Once upon a time I worked in sports marketing, handling world champions and Olympians. I loved my job, but the ocean captured my heart and I ran away to fulfill my dreams – for the first time to cruise on a sailing yacht across the Atlantic and for the second time to live on the North coast of Spain, surfing and teaching others to do the same. I'm currently living my newest landlocked adventure as a recent mom but am always looking forward to some new escapades and to help others find their love of nature.
