"Traveling solo doesn't mean traveling alone," said Heidi Durflinger, CEO, EF World Journeys USA. "We've created new Solo Tours and Tours for Women that bring together curious, like-minded travelers to share unforgettable experiences—from wine and chocolate tastings to nature adventures across some of the world's most beautiful places. It's been especially exciting to see the enthusiasm for our women-only trips in France and Japan, where nearly 9 in 10 women told us they love the idea of exploring with other women who share their spirit of adventure."

The "new" EF Go Ahead Tours include:

Amsterdam, Bruges & Paris for Solo Travelers
(10 day, $4,499 USD)
Experience the canals, cuisine, and couture of three cultural capitals—solo, but not alone.  The Netherlands' canals and windmills. Belgium's beers and chocolates. France's palaces and museums. Whatever your reason for visiting this corner of Western Europe, you'll be spoiled for choice. And with all the comforts of guided group travel supporting you, you can make the most of your time abroad. Join fellow solo travelers and roll from bohemian Amsterdam to glitzy Paris, stopping to explore the medieval core of Bruges along the way. And don't forget the Ile de la Cite: Opt into our Paris extension, and you'll be talking about your tour of Notre-Dame for years to come.

Iceland for Solo Travelers: Reykjavik, Golden Circle & South Coast
(6 days, from $3,499)
Put the "I" in "Iceland" and visit one of Earth's wildest islands solo—but not alone. Like the storm of the Gullfoss Waterfall or the surge of the Strokkur Geyser, adrenaline rushes the moment you touch down in Iceland. And over the course of roughly a week, this Solo Tour will keep your excitement pumping as you trek between the highlights of the Land of Fire and Ice. Explore the city of Reykjavik, and with the Icelandic capital as your home base, venture to must-see spots on the Golden Circle and South Coast (think: black sand beaches and sprawling ice caps). To dig into the country's frozen past—literally—add the extension to West Iceland, home to legendary writers and the glacial tunnels of Langjokull.

France for Women: Paris, Loire Valley & Champagne Region
(11 days, from $4,049 USD)
Go for les chateaux, la Champagne, and le shopping with other women travelers by your side. Women have marked the passage of history in France, from Joan of Arc to Marie Antoinette and Simone de Beauvoir. Walk in their footsteps as your female Tour Director leads the way through Paris, the Loire Valley, the Champagne region, and the opulent French Riviera (if you opt for the oh-so-sunny extension). Along the way, you'll share unforgettable moments with your tourmates, like a glittering cruise down the Seine, visits to dreamy chateaux, wine tastings, and a one-of-a-kind trip to the birthplace of bubbly. Sprinkle in a French baking class, a perfume-making workshop, and a stylish stop at Galeries Lafayette, and you've got the makings of a majorly magnifique tour.

This tour also includes a special champagne tasting at Veuve Clicquot. Celebrating women entrepreneurs, Barbe-Nicole Clicquot-Ponsardin turned this famous champagne house into the global brand we know today. Known as "Madame Clicquot," she became one of the world's first female international business leaders. She is credited with major innovations, including creating the first vintage champagne and inventing the riddling table to clarify the wine. 

Japan for Women: Tokyo, Ise-Shima Peninsula & Kyoto
(11 days, from $4,299 USD)
Experience Japan's shrines, street style, and sisterhood on a women-led tour. With women by your side and a female Tour Director leading the way, this journey through Japan is designed to be as empowering as it is unforgettable. From Tokyo's boundary-pushing fashion scene to the quiet reverence of Kyoto's shrines, every stop invites you to explore, connect, and discover. You'll share lunch with the women of the legendary ama pearl divers, learn the precise art of ramen and tea, and reflect at Hiroshima's Peace Memorial (if you add the tour's extension). Whether you're wandering through Shibuya or watching a Maiko performance in Kyoto, this trip is about meaningful moments, shared stories, and seeing Japan through a lens that celebrates women's curiosity and cultural contributions.

Highlights of New Zealand: Rotorua, Milford Sound & Queenstown
(11 days, from $3,999 USD)
Take a bite out of New Zealand—its magnificent fjords, Maori customs, and more. Mythologized by distance and immortalized in film, New Zealand epitomizes the once-in-a-lifetime destination—and this itinerary condenses it to its very best. From the wines of Waiheke Island, grown just off Auckland's shores, to the steaming pits of a Maori hangi, you'll delight in the different sides of Kiwi culture. And from the monumental peaks of Milford Sound to the gentle glow of the Te Anau Glowworm Caves, you'll wonder at its natural beauty. Sydney, Australia, beckons too, and offers a fitting finale—if you add this trip's extension.
