Backroads Women's Adventures offer multiple daily route options along with opportunities for relaxation and pampering with stays at esteemed hotels. When the company introduced these new trips in August 2023, the response surpassed expectations with demand for even more dates and destinations. Expanding on the initial collection of 26 trips selected specifically with women in mind, Backroads continues to add new Women's Adventures itineraries across the globe. The inaugural women's trips depart this month; the company expects the latest new additions to be just as well-received and to book quickly.

"We knew our Women's Adventures would resonate with women of all ages and stages of life, whether they were looking for traveling companions of the same gender or simply wanting to escape with good friends and experience a new or favorite destination," said Tom Hale, Backroads Founder, President and CEO. "This collection was inspired by my wife, Liz, and my daughter Avery, who recently became a mom herself. It's no coincidence that the announcement of these new trips comes right before Mother's Day. The list includes a few of their favorite destinations."
