The rise of women-only tours: A Winter Series episode

The Folo by Travel Weekly - A podcast by Travel Weekly - Mondays

One trend we've noticed taking shape recently is the rising popularity of women-only tours. From on-the-ground adventures in far flung destinations like Saudi Arabia and Morocco to a luxurious river cruise in France’s wine country, there are options galore for today’s so-called “queenagers.”  In this episode, reporter Tom Stieghorst shares his insights and his reporting, and Shirnett Fleet, the chief marketing officer of Uniworld Boutique River Cruises, talks about what women-only tours offer, where the trend is headed and why it's moved from niche to mainstream. This episode is part of our annual Winter Series, where we feature some of our favorite recent Folo by Travel Weekly discussions. This episode was recorded Nov. 21 and has been edited for length and clarity.  Episode sponsor This episode is sponsored by Riverside Luxury Cruises https://www.riverside-cruises.com Related links Women-only tours: A niche that is going mainstream https://www.travelweekly.com/Travel-News/Tour-Operators/The-growth-of-women-only-tours A women-only cruise leans into luxury https://www.travelweekly.com/River-Cruising/Insights/women-only-river-cruise-uniworld-luxury Uniworld: https://www.uniworld.com Background on the term 'queenager' https://eleanormills.substack.com/p/eleanors-letter-what-is-a-queenager  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
