Hi, we're SO back & trying this again! I first tried to launch this trip earlier this year in September and it failed. So I sent out a feedback form to get your honest thoughts on what stopped you from saying yes. For some people it was dates, but for many of you, it was cost! Women expressed they didn't want to find a way to get into La Paz on their own, and that $4k was feeling steep for them.

I'll be honest, the accommodation was super luxe (like cost  $18,000 for the week luxe). On top of that, the original trip had a lot more inclusions and many women also voiced they'd prefer them to be optional so they could add if they wanted because many gals were mainly focused on experiencing the whale sharks!

Thank you SO much for sharing your feedback with me. I've found a cheaper and smaller accom that is based in Cabo. This means no long transfers to a different city after you land. Easy to fly in and out of and a bare-bones package giving you the freedom to add in what you wish on your own budget!

Baja California is the ultimate destination for a girls' trip, where adventure meets luxurious relaxation.  Picture this: sun-soaked beaches, stunning desert landscapes, and waters that invite you to explore. Whether you're swimming with whale sharks, hiking through breathtaking canyons, or enjoying fresh local cuisine by the ocean, every moment here is an opportunity for connection, inspiration, and personal growth.

This trip is designed for women who crave more than just a vacation—it’s for those seeking to create lifelong memories, build authentic friendships, and check off bucket list adventures in a setting that will leave you feeling empowered, re-connected, and rejuvenated. Baja California isn't just a destination, it's a journey into the extraordinary.

Hi, I'm Ally! I've spent most of the last 16 years in airports escaping to destinations that fuelled my curiosity to explore incredible parts of the world. I spent the first 8 years of my career doing sales and operations in the travel industry - specifically planning, selling, and running youth group trips across the Caribbean,  Central America, Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia. When I wasn't planning and running other people's trips, I was escaping for some solo travel of my own.
 

After my first big trip at 18, where I camped across 6 countries in Southern Africa, I knew that I had to have as many experiences around the world as I possibly could for the rest of my life. I set a goal of travelling to 30 countries before I turned 30 and was lucky to pass that by 24!
 

Most of you know me as a photographer. I left the professional travel world to pursue my love for being creative. I've worked on TV shows, started a podcast for women with over 50k downloads, shot photos for huge airlines and hotels around the world, and tried to get away as much as I could in between. 

These group trips merge all of my worlds to offer you some of the same life-changing experiences that I've had across the globe. My goal is to offer you a space to reconnect with yourself in a slow but stunning environment where you can take the time and space to clear, reset, create new intentions, start to integrate, and PLAY.
 

We don't play enough as adults. We take ourselves way too seriously. These trips will change that.  They're designed to carve out intentional time to play, while really giving you the freedom to tap into (and honour) what feels good to you each day.
 

Your session with Courtney will be at the beginning of the trip and will be incredibly grounding and transformative. This one-on-one intuitive coaching session will be tailored to customizing your trip experience to best suit your emotional and spiritual needs.
 

The rest of the trip is up to you. Let's savour the slow travel, meet new friends, eat good food, cry if we have to, and have an incredible trip that we'll remember for the rest of our lives.
 

I can't wait to meet you,
 

Ally

Do I need travel insurance?
Yes! All participants must have travel insurance to cover medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and other unforeseen events. If you do not have coverage via your credit card, you can purchase it separately.

What are the accommodations like?

We are staying in a condo just outside of Cabo San Lucas. Each traveller will have their own bed in the house. Rooms are assigned based on pre-trip questionnaires that help us best decide which personalities and sleeping styles would be most compatible. We choose to stay in apartments for our trips to give women the chance to cook & budget their trip best!

Standard Package vs. Upgraded Package: What's the difference?

The standard package will include all of the basic listed inclusions for the trip (accom, whale sharks, intuitive session. The upgrade package will have all of the standard inclusions PLUS:

+ Trip memories photoshoot package w/ Ally

+ Trip reel/video 

+ Welcome bottle of bubbles

How Do I Get There?

Fly into Cabo (SJD). Many airlines offer cheap flights into Cabo, but please note that you will have to arrange your own Uber/Taxi/Transfer/Car Rental to the apartment at the start of your trip and back to the airport at the end of the trip.

Are There Fitness Requirements For This Trip?

While the activity level for this trip is low, we ask that travellers with pre-existing medical conditions get clearance from their health professionals to travel.

What's The Itinerary Like?

This trip is very bare bones! It's the second time I'm launching a whale shark trip and honouring the popular feedback of removing inclusions to make the base cost as low as possible. So we did just that. Your trip will include whale sharks and boat trip to Balandra beach, as well as round trip transportation from Cabo to La Paz for this excursion. Any additional excursions can be added in at your own cost.

Our trips are simple: Curated experiences for women who hate the idea of being stuck on a tour. This is your chance to wake up each day and tap into what feels good TO YOU each day - without the guilt. Make it your trip ;)

This Is Not A Tour

A reminder that our trips are not structured tours. Yes, we have inclusions and activities that we do together - but the type of gals who thrive on these experiences are women who enjoy equal amounts of connection and independence. If you require a lot of structure, guidance, hand-holding, and reassurance, this travel style is not suited to you <3

"Hii 💗 how many times have I cried reflecting on this trip today? Too many. You created some absolute magic over the past 10 days. You created a safe space for so many different types of women to connect back to themselves. I seriously cannot thank you enough for trusting yourself to put on a trip like this. For me, this past year has been fucking hard I really feel like I had lost my joy but this trip sparked that joy right back up. It was exactly what I needed and was beyond my wildest expectations of what I thought this trip was going to be. The fact I am leaving not only finding my joy, but also having challenged myself, and having made friends for life is truly truly special. It was also really cool to watch you through this trip and for you to be one of us during the whole thing. I think that made it feel way more approachable. It truly was a girl's trip! I appreciate you so much! 💗💗"
