The Solo Female Traveler NetworkReviews of thesolofemaletravelernetwork.com

I have to say, this once in a lifetime trip has been one of the most beautiful ones I have been on because it was an opportunity to be at a magical place that was actually on my bucket list that took me to discover a network of women: SoFe (Solo Female Travelers). It was created by Amanda, whom I had the pleasure to meet and organized this small group of women to come together. It was truly enriching to see all of us women from different places, ages, and stages in life becoming vulnerable, giving each other support, being kind to one another, share sincere laughter, and open up to share deep thoughts and personal stories next to the campfire while wrapped around our cozy blankets. We spent a fun time cooking together, playing rated R games (lol), going on a gorgeous hike to Joshua Tree Park, painting and beading in the outdoors, and being free. I had never been on a trip like this before but the love and kindness I felt, reminded me of my very sensitive side, my essence, and getting a real taste of life. I felt all of my senses come together and felt true joy.

We had a great time. Wonderful guide and driver. Terrific travel mates, lodgings, and itinerary. My complaint is the packing list should have been customized for winter travel, and having warmer clothes would have made it more comfortable. We needed coats, hats, and scarves not bathing suits!

Overall, I had a great trip! Sanjeeta was a fantastic guide and really made the trip special! It felt like I was just touring India with a friend. I thought the itinerary was good, a nice mix of sightseeing and cultural experiences. My only negative feedback would be about the accommodation. I felt that the trip was advertised as having “luxury accommodations”and that the price we paid for the trip reflected the extra cost of staying at nice hotels. Unfortunately, I would only say the 3 of the hotels felt “luxury” and it left me wondering why the price point was so high. The hotel in Delhi was extremely outdated (paint peeling of the walls of the room, stained sheets and towels, and smelt a little moldy) my roomate had stayed there the night before and she was put in a much nicer room. So it was unfortunately very apparent that we had been placed in a basic room and I felt that with what we had payed for the trip, we should have been given the higher quality room. I felt the same about the hotel in jodhpur. The property was nice, but it was super apparent we were in the basic room option. Overall, I would absolutely book with SOFE again, I had a great time, I just wish the hotel rooms reflected the price point more.
