Walk the world with WalkingWomen
We are two sisters new owners of WalkingWomen since August 2021. We are passionate about sharing our love of walking and having wonderful travel experiences with friends and family. Sometimes women just want to travel in the company of other women and we want to make this possible.
Why is WalkingWomen important?
Ginny’s partner died in September 2015 and she was at a loss how to holiday. WalkingWomen got her holidaying again and she wants to share this with other women.
Sara has spent the last 30 years juggling bringing up 3 children and part-time work. Travel has always been important to her; she previously worked in the travel industry. Now she wants to bring holidays to women who need ‘me’ time.
Our mission …
WalkingWomen has a strong legacy spanning more than 20 years. It has been owned and operated by sister duo Ginny and Sara since 2021.
Our mission is and has always been, to provide a safe and welcoming space for women to explore and adventure. We walk, connect, revive. Together.
We champion women at every stage of our journey. Our female team is at the end of the phone when you book. All of our guides around the world are women. And we seek out and showcase women-led businesses – from women winemakers to our hosts.
We recruit and nurture all our women guides, to ensure they have successful careers with good earning potential as mountain leaders. 60% of our guides are over 50. And our more experienced guides mentor others starting out.
We offer holidays for all levels of walking and have a Goat Guide to explain what you can expect. We encourage women to call us to discuss what holidays they are interested in or just book and be sure of a great time.
