  • Shopping's learning curve

    Shopping's learning curve

    August 14, 2013 / Argentina travel, India travel, Morocco tours, Pushkar Camel tours, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, solo travel

    What we are learning on our Argentina tour has reversed how we buy. If you charge on a credit card, the rate of exchange is. 5 pesos to 1 dollar. If you pay in cash the rate is 8. This is a huge difference so bringing some cash is a must.

    Secondly, tourists do not go to a bank, they change money in stores. All seems totally legal and above board.

    Argentines do the reverse, they buy dollar goods on line using cards as they get pay the least for US goods that way getting each dollar for.…

  • Murder on a Women's Tour

    August 8, 2013 / India travel, Morocco tours, Pushkar Camel tours, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, solo travel, The Women's Travel Group, tours for women

    Here are ‘reasonable reasons’ for combat: and we hope you agree with them. If not let us know by posting here.

    Whining: Solve any issue immediately even if it seems insgnificant. You will be surprised at how flexible The Women’s Travel Group can be. However everyone gets one day to whine…. maybe just a little. After jet lag, for instance on our India trip, everyone will be tired, go with it.
    Regretting: If you wanted to buy something or think you overpaid for it, move on.…

     
  • Snooze: how to get through the long flight to Argentina!

    August 8, 2013 / India travel, Pushkar Camel tours, Shopping overseas, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, The Women's Travel Group

    The Women’s Travel Group goes to Argentina today.

    Hour 1 Read heavy-duty stuff you have been avoiding then throw out the magazines. My heavy-duty is The New York Review of Books.
    Hour 2 Bring junk literature you love but are ashamed to buy. Like the female version of drinking from a brown paper bag.  Movie Star gossip is the best here.
    Hour 3 Eat as slowly as possible, finishing with your airplane treat. If you plan to drink alcohol, add in lots of water also. …

     
  • The Pushkar Camel Market if you don't like camels….

    The Pushkar Camel Market if you don't like camels….

    August 5, 2013 / India travel, Pushkar Camel tours, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, solo travel, The Women's Travel Group

    The Pushkar Camel Market is not a mere market. It is now considered one of the greatest travel experiences possible. Here are the details of our group tour including our luxury tented camp. This is a market you will wander into solo!

    Pushkar is a huge gathering of tribal peoples from all over Rajasthan. The market is one of the last great traditional gatherings globally and because it is in India, it is particularly spectacular and colorful.

    Here is what you will see: Camel Races and performances: ever see a dancing camel?…

     
  • Five Dumb Things Women Take on Vacation

    August 5, 2013 / India travel, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, solo travel, tours for women, women's travel

    Too many shoes! Only take one pair that never ever hurt no matter how much you walk or how swollen your feet get. And one light pair for dinner wear.

    Big bottles of shampoo and/or conditioner. Hair will recover in 2 shampoos when you get home. Take small bottles of conditioner but label them so you don’t slather your face with a hair product because you forgot what you packed

    Books: yikes are we not over this yet? Book worms learn to use electronic devices for the sake of weight.…

     
  • Do Women Buy New Clothes for Vacation?

    August 2, 2013 / India travel, Pushkar Camel tours, singles vacations, solo travel, tours for women, women's travel

    Unfortunately, we do. Anticipation for your vacation often means shopping, even if just for a new tee shirt or other. Why do we do this?

    Some are women coming solo and they want to make an impression- who even notices?  Others feel that shopping pre-trip is part of the fantasy of travel. Shopping starts the actual trip experience as we dream and anticipate.  Heh, Ladies!!!!

    Here is what we should really be doing!

    — Getting rest and ready for jet lag.…

     
  • Ten Ways to Get in Trouble on Vacation

    August 1, 2013 / India travel, Pushkar Camel tours, singles vacations, solo travel, The Women's Travel Group, tours for women, women's travel

    Ten Ways To Get in Trouble on Your Vacation

    From The Women’s Travel Group

    You wear jewelry even gold-colored costume jewelry.

    You do not put our IPad in a bigger bag in airport security.

    You do not empty your wallet of a department store and other credit cards useless overseas.

    You leave your valuables near your airline seat when you use the facilities.

    You wear clothing or large baggage tags, which identifies you to strangers (football team hat?)

    You let your guard down in places that feel safe like museums or private galleries.…

     
  • Travel Agents Rarely Sell Women's Tours: Why?

    August 1, 2013 / India travel, Pushkar Camel tours, single supplement waiver, singles vacations, solo travel, The Women's Travel Group, tours for women, women's travel

    It is perplexing that so few travel agents cater to the executive women’s  leisure market. Here is what we think about this enigma.

    There are few tours available, that fit agents’ need for licensed and professionally organized trips. Scan the net and how many women’s tour companies are IATAN licensed? Are part of industry recognized travel leaders? Or even offer agent commissions?

    Women like myself, and you who read this blog, may call your agent for a solo trip, but will likely be told that they do not have answers for you. …
