Meet the group at Heathrow for the three-hour morning flight to Keflavík.

FaqCommon questions
-
Return flights from London, handpicked hotels, private transfers, the experiences in the itinerary, most dinners, a host with you from start to finish and your photos. Each trip page lists exactly what's in and what isn't.
-
No. Most women book on their own. You'll meet the group on a video call before you go, and by the first dinner it won't feel like travelling alone.
-
Join the founding members list and we'll be in touch as soon as booking opens, with first choice of rooms and dates. Then it's a relaxed chat to make sure the trip is right for you before you pay a deposit.
-
Every booking is financially protected, and we'll walk you through the cancellation terms before you pay anything. Travel insurance is required for every trip.
-
Yes, your own room is standard. If you'd rather share a twin with a friend or another guest, there's a lower price for that.
-
Women who'd rather go than wait. Founders, CEOs, busy professionals and mums who can afford the trip but have never had the right person, or the right week, to go with.
