After two years in COVID hibernation, we\u2019re back with all-new Intrepid Women\u2019s Expeditions<\/a>! Refreshed, re-imagined and officially re-launched. From India\u2019s Thar Desert to Berber homestays in Morocco, these expeditions support and empower women deeply affected by the pandemic. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Want to camp in Wadi Rum with Bedouin tribeswomen? Visit a beauty salon in Tehran? Kick back on a women-only Dead Sea beach? Or maybe hike the Inca Trail with a group of female porters?<\/p>\n

These are experiences you can only get on Intrepid Women\u2019s Expeditions \u2013 unique adventures, designed for female travellers and guided by amazing women all over the world. We\u2019re happy to say they\u2019re back in 2022. Bigger and better than ever. We\u2019ve got new itineraries, new adventures, and our old tours have been completely re-imagined.<\/p>\n

Relaunching our Women\u2019s Expeditions has been a massive step. These trips support some truly inspirational women, many of whom have suffered because of the COVID-19 pandemic. They\u2019re eager to welcome travellers back, and we\u2019re excited for you to meet them.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s on the itinerary for 2022? Let\u2019s dive right in.<\/p>\n

Stay with Thar Desert women on the India Women\u2019s Expedition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

COVID-19 hit India\u2019s women particularly hard. Data shows<\/a> there are 22 per cent fewer women employed in India in 2021, compared to 2019. It\u2019s more important than ever to support female guides, female entrepreneurs and female business owners in the country, which is what this Women\u2019s Expedition<\/a> is all about.<\/p>\n

Travellers will ride in Delhi Metro\u2019s female-only carriage, meet the local women of the Thar Desert, explore the bazaars of Old Delhi and catch a pink rickshaw in Jaipur (thanks to female-run not-for-profit, The Pink Rickshaw Company<\/a>). This 12-day itinerary hits all the big sites (Agra, Delhi, Jaipur), plus a few quieter spots along the way (Nimaj, Chandelao Garh and Jaisalmer).<\/p>\n

Go beyond the headlines on the Iran Women\u2019s Expedition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In Iran, women-only expeditions can access experiences you simply wouldn\u2019t get on a mixed-gender tour. On this 12-day itinerary<\/a>, you\u2019ll meet Iranian women from all walks of life \u2013 young and old, religious and secular, conservative and liberal. You\u2019ll explore the hidden world of an Iranian beauty salon, wander through restricted parks (some of the few public spaces where women can remove their hijabs), travel in women-only public transport carriages and meet female entrepreneurs driving change in their country. We\u2019ve even included a homestay with the nomadic Qashqai people in Tang-e-Chogan, near Bishapur. This trip shows the power of tourism as a force for good, and an economic driver in Iran\u2019s post-COVID recovery.<\/p>\n

Meet female shepherds on the Jordan Women\u2019s Expedition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Gender equality in Jordan still has a long way to go. In 2020, the World Economic Forum ranked Jordan 138 out of 153 countries on their Global Gender Gap Index. Tourism here tends to focus on the big sites \u2013 Wadi Rum, Petra, the Jerash Ruins etc \u2013 but not the women behind the icons. We wanted to change that with our Jordan Women\u2019s Expedition<\/a>. On this trip, you\u2019ll take a deep dive into Jordan\u2019s rarely seen female culture. Spent a night in Wadi Rum and learn traditional henna with Bedouin women; kick back on a female-only Jordanian beach; join a local shepherd for a mezze breakfast; and sip tea with a renowned Jordanian matchmaker (no pressure). This tour is an 8-day itinerary that loops through Amman via Wadi Rum, Petra and the Dead Sea.<\/p>\n

Explore the M\u2019goun Valley on the Morocco Women\u2019s Expedition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Morocco tours tend to follow a pretty well-worn and conservative itinerary. But this one is different. Not only will we be hiking west of Marrakech, through the remote and stunningly beautiful M\u2019goun Valley, we\u2019ll be led by some of Morocco\u2019s first ever female tour guides. This is a proper ground-breaking trip, in every sense of the word. Break bread with Amazigh (Berber) families, see how an artist co-op is empowering female rug-weavers in Amejgag, and sing the night away with Moroccan women in the tiny village of Issoumar. We\u2019ve crammed a lot of culture into these 8 days<\/a>. There\u2019s even a stop at the famous Ait Benhaddou on your way back to Marrakech.<\/p>\n

Hike with female porters on the Peru Women\u2019s Expedition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Welcome to the Inca Trail\u2026with a difference. Our Peru Women\u2019s Expedition<\/a> is brand new and very exciting. In a first for the local industry, it\u2019ll be led by female guides and include female porters, which is a big deal in the traditionally masculine world of Peruvian trekking. You\u2019ll get a uniquely female perspective on Machu Picchu, the Inca legend, and the local lives of Peruvian women: from a woman running a food stall in downtown Lima to the Umasbamba weavers of the Sacred Valley. We\u2019ve also included a very special dinner at Mama Seledonia<\/a> in Cusco \u2013 it\u2019s a restaurant that supports single Peruvian mothers, offering them jobs and culinary training. We promise, you\u2019ve never seen this side of Peru before.<\/p>\n
