Remember the good old days with your besties, when the time was filled with laughter and blissful happiness? Life seemed to be an endless joy. Today, when you must carry the load of everyday responsibilities and duties, friendly gossiping is on the back burner, giving way to more important matters.
Even when being close geographically, friends rarely find a spare moment for quality time together, thus, the only way to make it is to travel. It is a brilliant way to change your daily focus, recharge your batteries, and finally, have a carefree time with your besties.
Depending on the preferences, there may be different types of trips to consider.
All-inclusive Outings
An all-inclusive option is a pure joy for those who are tired of managing and planning their days, as everything is taken care of. Well-furnished rooms, entertainment, meals, excursions, hydrotherapy, spas, massages – the best all-inclusive girl trips will make the difference to your daily routine.
An all-inclusive vacation can have a different duration, depending on your schedule, yet, it’s better to plan a week-off to let yourself immerse in the atmosphere of joy and fully disconnect from a tiresome routine. Considering the duration, you can travel to a different continent, not just the closest options.
Imagine how great it would be, to wake up somewhere in Hilton Playa del Carmen in Mexico with the sounds of the ocean filling the air; or have a class of yoga or meditation in the forest when visiting Club Med Quebec Charlevoix in Canada, Quebec; or have endless girl talk in cozy cottages in Cedar Lakes Estate.
Anything that will take you away from daily worries back to the trouble-free day will let you relax, and rediscover your long-forgotten feeling of light-heartedness.
City Breaks
City breaks are a good fit for active besties, who are tired of sedentary days in the office and crave time with friends. While enjoying the company of each other, girls will also explore a new place, and extend their travel maps, not to mention tons of new shots to take and meals to try.
A freshly-baked croissant in Lion will definitely taste better than the one from a local bakery; Belgian waffles will have a better taste when eaten somewhere in the middle of Brussels; las empanadas will be a perfect snack when exploring the Gaudi creations in Barcelona.
TravelWise, a comprehensive tour guide, emphasizes that the journey itself shouldn’t take longer than 3-4 hours, not to steal the quality time at the place. One of the biggest advantages of city breaks is their spontaneity, as you can simply book the nearest date, and head toward a new destination, and all your vacation days will be saved for a longer trip.
Hiking tours
Hiking tours are more challenging to organize than all-inclusive and city breaks, as they require proper timing and specific clothing. However, it is a good way to spend quality time with your besties without any distractions from the city. Besides, not only is hiking spiritually beneficial but also physically – apart from watching spectacular views and reuniting with nature, you are bound to get fitter due to daily exercising.
Hiking tours should be planned, as you may require additional equipment (depending on the place).
Nowadays, with countless number of tour guides and agencies, finding the right one (considering fitness level) will not be a problem.
By the way, you can go first to the hiking tours, and then, have a few lazy days with all-inclusive options resorts – why not combine the pleasure of both?
The Final Thoughts
Friendly outings become a rare pleasure nowadays, as it is difficult to find time in the avalanche of daily responsibilities. However, time with friends is simply a necessity, which helps to change the focus, reconsider your life, and recharge your inner self.
If you feel tied up with everyday responsibilities, don’t hesitate, and have an escape into a new you with your besties, like in the good old days.
