I went on this trip solo, hoping to meet a group of like minded, fun women, and explore Namibia. I came away with memories I’ll cherish forever! We got to see all the sights, from the otherworldly landscapes of Sandwich Harbour to an almost unreasonable number of safari animals, while spending our days laughing with a group of women who were strangers at the start and friends by the end. Namibia was spectacular, but what made the trip truly special was the people, both the women I travelled with and the local communities we had the opportunity to interact with. I left in awe of the strength, resilience and spirit of women, and grateful for the chance to experience a little of everyday life beyond the tourist highlights. A special mention to Ally, who clearly put a lot of thought and care into curating this trip. It felt like a carefully considered balance of incredible sights, unique experiences, meaningful cultural interactions and time for the group to connect. She communicated well before and throughout the trip, managed everyone’s expectations, and made sure we knew what we were getting ourselves into (always useful when travelling across Namibia with a group of women you’ve just met), She was a fantastic host, attentive and organized without making anything feel overly managed, and brought plenty of fun herself. Turns out, being competent and entertaining is a rather unfair combination. If you’re on the fence, book the trip, you won’t regret it ❤️

This was my third trip with The Girls Trip Series and every trip Ally has curated has taken me somewhere I wouldn’t have gone solo and connected me with women I’m genuinely lucky to know. South Africa and Namibia delivered once-in-a-lifetime moments, one after another. Canoeing down the Orange River, staying up to watch the Milky Way stretch across the Namib Desert, taking in the views from Dune 45 and Sandwich Harbour, learning about the culture from our local hosts, and spotting the Big Four on game drives in Etosha National Park. Too many moments to list them all! Ally builds every itinerary with real care. She balances immersion in local culture with comfortable stays in one-of-a-kind locations, makes room for us to pause together, and makes sure we see the places that leave you in awe of where you’re standing. The days are full of adventure. The evenings are for sharing meals and stories with each other. The women who join Ally’s trips are solo travellers chasing bucket-list destinations and real connection. They bring the sense of humour that keeps the laughs going from the first day to the last. The bonus: familiar faces from past trips, and new friendships built along the way. Life can be busy, hectic and overwhelming as a single woman trying to do it all. Planning travel can feel daunting, some places aren’t easy to visit solo, and aligning schedules with friends at home can be hard. My advice to any solo female traveller, don’t wait to book the trip. Life is too short. I can’t recommend The Girls Trip Series (and Ally) enough. I’m so grateful to have this group in my life and to see these extraordinary places with them. #FIBI

This was my first The Girls Trip Series tour and all I can say is that it was an absolute unreal experience from start to finish. I feel like I’m in withdrawal… ready to do it all over again!

Our recent overland trip through southern Africa was nothing short of incredible. I'll do my best to describe it. Starting with the basics, I felt so safe with Ally and our local guides at every step of the way. The accomodations were comfortable, each with their own charm and most amazing staff. The included meals were delicious, baking was always fresh, and I appreciated having so many opportunities to try local dishes. Of course, no road trip is complete without some questionable meals (that's where snacks come in; you need to love a good snack on this type of trip!). I can't even begin to describe how lucky we were with wildlife sightings. This is the part I find hardest to put into words. You just have to experience these animals for yourself, in person and on their terms. To travel with thegirlstripseries is to experience true girlhood. I met so many uniquely brilliant, funny, and supportive women - all qualities that were SO important on this trip. And the woman bringing it all together is Ally - Thank you so much, you've given me memoeries I'll cherish forever!! Ladies!! If a trip is calling to you, please answer. These trips will take you where you're meant to be, with the people you're meant to be there with.

Travelling with Ally and the Girls Trip Series was one of the best experiences of my life. Ally has mastered the art of bringing like minded women together in corners of the world that we might not get to on our own. From our accommodations to excursions, Ally ensured that everything was seamless, was always accommodating and ensured that we had everything we needed. Ally always checked in on the group at night, ensuring that everyone got home safely when we split up and did our own thing. Touches like that show how much Ally cares about our experience on a level that is unmatched from other travel companies. Thank you Ally for the trip of a lifetime- I can’t wait to go on another adventure with you and the Girls Trip Series!
