Loved this tour!!! Our guide Komal was AMAZING. It would not have been as fantastic without her. Every spot we went to was wonderful and I appreciated all the smaller stops that coincided with the main attractions (eg marble shop before the Taj Mahal). I'm speechless as to what a unique and beautiful experience it was. Komal was one of the best guides. Extremely patient, understanding, and knowledgeable. I can't wait to go back!!

Life changing experience! Their attention to every moment and detail was phenomenal and everything felt super smooth. "Money can't buy happiness" but this was pretty dang close and I'll cherish the memories and new friendships for life!

The most amazing way to "travel solo" while making friends along the way. Our dedicated tour guide and driver made sure we were well-informed about the areas, the people, the food and the culture we visited. I loved that we saw some of the main tourist places, but also ventured off the beaten track to get closer to the communities where people live and spend money with small businesses.

Can’t say enough good things about the two tours I’ve taken with SoFe. I went to Egypt and Japan and still rave about my experiences. The Guides were incredible, I don’t know how they accommodated everyone but we all felt like the VIP traveler. I was really nervous that the group may not be nice or I wouldn’t make friends but both times that was so far from the truth. You don’t always like everyone, but the feeling of community was so strong that everyone just belonged. And I did make some friends who I still talk to and have even traveled in the USA with. Our groups were pretty diverse with mostly Americans but also someone from Malaysia, a couple women from the UK and one from Kenya when went to Egypt. And a couple Australians, someone from Paraguay, and one person from the UK. I’m signed up for Morocco next year and I can’t wait!!

The Golden Eagle festival itself was unbelievably cool. Mongolia isn’t an easy place to travel in. It wasn’t just sightseeing, it was about real interactions and learning from people living their day-to-day lives. But like any trip, your experience depends on your attitude. SoFe is perfect for travelers who like to be off the beaten path, want an adventure, and are open to an immersive cultural experience. But being in such a remote place, they really make sure everyone feels comfortable and cared for. They go out of their way to make sure they accommodate for everyone. There is a lot of value in traveling with a group of like-minded women that you just can’t get in a mixed-gender group. The camaraderie and connection you feel is unique and something I didn’t expect going into it. Go try it for yourself!

The whole experience in Turkey was amazing. Especially the hot air balloon ride in Cappadocia, the cruise along the Mediterranean, and the cave hotel we stayed at. I also really enjoyed our guide, driver, and the other ladies on this trip. They all made Turkey extra special. I went on this trip totally solo, but left with friends for life! This was my second trip with Sofe, and I think it’s just easy to make friends on their trips because of the company values of community and empowerment. I loved that we all have similar mindsets and can relate on so many things even though we all come from different cultures and ages. My roommate was from Vietnam and we’re already planning a trip together for when I go to SouthEast Asia!

This was such a fabulous tour. I was worried about it being too busy and not fitting in with the other people in the group, but I really had the best time. I went to India with the company, and since it was my 54th country, I am an experienced traveler who is used to doing things totally solo. I chose a group tour because I have heard India is difficult and not that safe on your own, and I wanted an easier trip. I chose Sofe because their itinerary was so amazing and also included solo time. The itinerary ended up being so much better than I even expected from reading it online. The other people on the tour were amazing women who I have kept in touch with. My favorite day was the rickshaw tour in Jaipur with all female drivers. We stopped for chai and for photos, and you could just tell they were having such a good time with us. It felt so empowering all around. I could go on and on about this tour, buy overall. 12/10 LOVED this trip and would recommend it to anyone who is ready to experience India.

I really love this company. I feel so safe on tours with them and I always have a lot of fun traveling with other women. My last tour had women from 5 different countries and I’ve already visited one of them in Malaysia and another in Singapore. My first SoFe Trip was Morocco and then I went to Egypt. Next year I’ve booked both Japan and India, and I’m so excited! The accom in Morocco was stunning, that hotel in Fes and the rooftop in Marrakech were big highlights for me. We drank wine when the sun set and swam in the pool and took a ton of photos in our room, because everything was just so beautiful. That trip was a lot of driving but very fun. I hate camping but the tents in the desert were so probably one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in on my travels. Everything about that night in the desert was just as magical and more so than the website describes. I love Morocco so much that I went to Egypt next. This was the best trip of my life. Our guide was the best, I loved sailing down the Nile and meeting the Nubian people. We had so many foodie experiences And so much fun. Thank you so much, Sam, Sara, Amanda, and the whole team. You’ve literally made my travel dreams, come true and so many new friends and surprise experiences in the process. Can’t wait to travel with you next year
