Small-Group Tours for Women Travelers
So often when women begin to look at traveling internationally, we get overwhelmed with the process of planning, preparations, important decisions, and costs. Should I travel alone or with a group? Should I stay in the city or the country? Should I visit more than one destination? Should I travel by bus or plane? Do I need vaccinations and visas? Will there be a language barrier? How do I decide on what activities to do? The list of questions is endless and can deter even the most motivated traveler. What makes Part-time Wanderlust (PTW) so special are the truly unique small-group tours designed for women travelers where all of these questions have already been answered for you. Our trips are perfect for solo female travelers who want the company of other like-minded adventurous women just like themselves. Every tour is led by Lindsey, an experienced tour guide, travel planner, and the designer of Part-time Wanderlust. All tours have been carefully put together to ensure that you have the trip of a lifetime without having to worry about the tedious details.
The benefits of traveling with a small group are immeasurable. By avoiding the big group tours with 30 or 40+ people you have a chance to get to know all of the individuals you're traveling with. Since none of PTW's group tours have more than 6 people, you are sure to come away from your adventure with several new friends.
You are able to stay in smaller locally owned accommodations and avoid the overpriced touristy hotels.
You have a chance to interact with the local people in a much more intimate setting.
Accommodation, transportation, site-seeing, and area research have all been taken care of for you, while still making sure plenty of free-time is available most days for you to relax or venture off on your own! To see what exciting trips we have coming up click below!

While continuing the tradition of keeping you stress-free, your travel plans will be entirely taken care of!

Traveler Reviews
A few months back I had Lindsey plan my two month vacation to Europe. She was very thorough and always got back to me with any questions I had in a timely manner. I was hesitant using a travel planner, but Lindsey made me feel at ease about not planning the trip myself. It was the best trip I've been on and I loved that I didn't have to spend hours researching like I've done in the past. I will definitely use her for my future trips.

I went on a 3 week vacation throughout Europe. It was the best vacation of my life!! I was completely overwhelmed with the task of trying to plan the entire trip. Luckily, Lindsey was able to plan my trip. I was so fortunate to have her arrange everything. Every last detail was planned out and it resulted in the best vacation ever. She was able to go by my budget restrictions, which was not an easy task! I know that my traveling experience wouldn't have been nearly as enjoyable if it wasn't for Lindsey. -Greg
Last January I traveled to several countries in Asia with Lindsey as my tour guide. She could not have planned a better trip. What a wonderful and relaxing experience. I've always put together trips for myself, but I loathed the scheduling, booking, and planning and the trips never turned out how I had hoped. Knowing that Lindsey is a world traveler herself, I took a chance with her. I'm sincerely glad I did. I absolutely loved the itinerary she set up, and the chance I had to travel with a few other great ladies made this trip so memorable. I was able to share these great travel moments with others while also getting plenty of time to myself when I needed it. I didn't have to stress over anything and it was all so carefully planned. Lindsey's communication from start to finish was excellent and I would recommend her trips to everyone! -Cristina
As someone who loves to travel, but is not a big fan of making plans, Lindsey has always been my go-to planner for any trip I take. From crazy adventures to making sure there's time to get a massage on the beach, it's all handled. Over the years I've seen her get more and more excited about travel planning and travel tours and I love how passionate she is about making sure her clients have the best possible time. I have never once been disappointed with what she plans for my yearly get-away and I really look forward to my next adventure with one of her groups.

My husband and I worked with Lindsey last year for a 15 day trip to Bali. As our tour guide Lindsey went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing time. She genuinely cared about all details of our entire adventure. We wanted an authentic experience within a reasonable budget. From floating in a small boat off the coast of Lovina watching hundreds of dolphins playfully jumping in their natural habitat - to visiting Monkey Forrest and numerous beautiful temple sites; Lindsey fulfilled our hopes for the authentic trip of a lifetime. She is an expert travel planner and tour guide and I would highly recommend Lindsey for all future travel adventures.
