TRAVEL WITH US
WILD BOOMER WOMEN STYLE
Come by yourself and the first night you will have a room full of new girlfriends. We have our fun way of getting to know each other and before you know it, you’ll be laughing and sharing the stories that bond us as baby boomer women.
This is a more relaxed, slower paced trip than your typical very scheduled, on and off the bus tours. Wild Boomer Women trips offer some days with guided tours and some days where we are dropped off in the middle of a city, get a map and a list of must see locations, then we get to explore on our own, at our own pace.
Please join us if you are a fun, positive woman who can go with the flow if plans or times change. We hope they don’t but excitement happens when you don’t plan for it.
