Why we do this

Hi!  I'm Deanna Keahey, founder of Adventurous Wench.  When I was 10, a trip to Mexico changed my life.  For the first time, I saw life outside the US, with different language, culture, people and food.  It was foreign to me, but just as real and valid as the life I came from.

Travel teaches tolerance.  All of a sudden, we're the foreigners.  We see that though others may look or act differently, there's an underlying commonality, and we learn respect.  Nobody's superior, we're all just trying to live our lives as best we can.  Natural wonders uplift the spirit, and put our petty problems in perspective.  Adventure stretches our capabilities and sense of self.

I know it's not always easy for single women to travel on their own.  Adventurous Wench was founded to help other women experience the fascination, the exploration, the connection, the growth, the sense of accomplishment, and the joy.  The world is such an incredible place!

Who travels with us?
Our women-only travel tours attract fun-loving women, with an adventurous spirit and a love for the outdoors.  Guests tend to share common interests, and are open to new people and ideas.  Friendships that develop on a trip may last for years.

Our guests are women, mostly 30s to 60s, though some are younger or older.  Most are single women, others are married but enjoying a separate vacation.  Many women come on their own - instead of solo travel, these women enjoy the camaraderie and security of being with a group.  Women-only trips are perfect for these solo travelers.  Other guests come with a friend, some with a group of friends, some with a relative – you may meet sisters, or a mother and daughter. 

Trip leaders
Our trip leaders are knowledgeable, professional, and experienced. They take care of the myriad trip details, making sure everything runs smoothly and everybody has fun.  We search out the best leaders for each of our adventure tours; vacations are precious and deserve the best. Trip leaders may be male or female, depending on who's the best available for that trip.
