Our Story

We started with
one passport and one yes.

Girls Trip Society was born from a simple idea: the women you travel with shape the way you remember a place. We design soft, soulful getaways where you arrive a stranger and leave with sisters.

How we travel: intention, curation and sisterhood

01

Intention

Every itinerary is hand-built around rest, ritual, and real local culture.

02

Curation

Twelve members per trip. Vetted homes. Private chefs. No tourist traps.

03

Sisterhood

A lifelong community that lasts long after the return flight lands.

Mission

Girls Trip Society exists to give women a home for travel, leadership, and sisterhood — a place where every trip is designed to help them reconnect with themselves, expand their circle, and step into their next chapter. We believe travel is one of the most powerful tools for personal reinvention, and we build experiences that treat it that way: intentional, curated, and shared with women who are doing the same work on themselves.

Vision

A world where "girls trip" isn't a once-a-year event you have to plan around flights and PTO — it's a standard of sisterhood ambitious women can access anytime, anywhere. Girls Trip Society is a lifestyle movement: the retreats are the passport-stamp version, and everything else we build makes sure the feeling doesn't require one. Within five years, Girls Trip Society will be recognized as the #1 international community women turn to when they're ready to invest in their own growth.

Core Values

Sisterhood

Growth moves faster in the company of women who get it.

Access

The feeling of a girls trip shouldn't be gated by a plane ticket or a week of PTO.

Elevation

Whether it's a retreat abroad or a Tuesday night pop-up, the experience should feel like an investment in her, not a discount version of one.

Authenticity

Real connection over performance.

Momentum

Personal and professional growth aren't separate tracks — we build both, together.

Belonging

Diverse women, one table.

Our Ecosystem

The Girls Trip Society Ecosystem

We've reframed our offerings as four entry points into one community, not four separate products, but one connected sisterhood.

Retreats

The flagship experience. International and domestic travel retreats for women ready to fully unplug and invest in themselves alongside the community.

"Layovers"

Our pop-up series. A layover is a stop, a pause, a taste of somewhere else before you land back in your regular life — which is exactly what these domestic pop-ups are.

Community App

The always-on version of the sisterhood. Where the relationships built at a retreat or a Layover event live between experiences — the connective tissue that makes this a community.

Growth Resources

Professional and personal development content and programming, so the value of membership isn't just 'what trip is next' but 'who am I becoming in between them.'

One community. Four entry points. Endless possibilities.

Travel. Connection. Growth. Together.
