Solo Female Travelers

by Mar and Meg

This isn’t just a travel podcast. It’s about the parts of travel you don’t always hear about. Brought to you by the team behind Solo Female Travelers and our global community, we go beyond destinations and highlight reels to get into what travel actually looks like in real life. We speak with women who do things differently, who take unconventional paths, ask hard questions, and navigate the world on their own terms. You’ll hear practical travel tips, honest conversations, and the stories that don’t always get talked about; the messy, the funny, and the moments that didn’t go as planned but end up being the ones you remember most. Because travel isn’t always polished, and that’s kind of the point. If you’ve ever felt the pull to go somewhere new or to travel more consciously, you’re in the right place.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I always look forward to new episodes because Mar and Meg feel like friends you could talk to for hours. They are not afraid to be silly and never make the topics feel too serious or polished. I like that they share their own stories and are honest about still figuring things out. I haven’t gotten to travel much yet, but the more I listen to more I want to go see everywhere. I learn something new every episode, and not just about travel, but about life.

Lana.Milana · Aug 2026

I wish this website and podcast were around when I started solo traveling in my 20s. What a great and insightful resource! I appreciate the range of experiences between the hosts as well. There’s something for every type of traveler.

JCShand · May 2026

It was great to learn about your team, hope to travel with you one day! The most recent episode was very inspiring and helpful in learning how to avoid non-legitimate cultural experiences. Not an easy task!
