Why Women’s Group Travel to Iceland Might Just Change Your Life

Iceland completely blew me away—jaw-dropping waterfalls, dramatic canyons, and cozy, thatched-roof villages that feel straight out of a fairytale. But the real magic? The women I got to experience it all with, thanks to Into the Wild’s Iceland Summer itinerary.

This wasn’t just a vacation. As the website says, it was a chance “to dive deep into our wild woman selves”—rediscovering the fierce beauty of the earth and the boldness inside of us. Our group of 14 included everyone from teachers to hedge fund execs, nurses to nonprofit pros. We started as strangers, but within hours we were sharing snacks, swapping life stories, and having the kind of car ride conversations you don’t forget.

Here’s what makes women-only travel so powerful: we know how to hold space. We hype each other up. We listen. We cry. We laugh so hard we snort. We talk about everything—from new chapters to heartbreak to career pivots—and instead of judgment, there’s always a “You’ve got this.”

Into the Wild creates intentional, small-group travel experiences for women who want more than just a pretty photo op (though, yes—you’ll get plenty of those). These trips are designed to help you show up exactly as you are and leave with new confidence, deep friendships, and a fresh sense of purpose. And bonus - you may just end up with me as your trip photographer!

We left Iceland with more than just epic photos— we left with a pep-talk group text, a re-lit fire to keep exploring the world now (not “someday”), and a reminder that community can be built in the most unexpected places.

If you’ve ever felt the pull to explore new places, try something bold, or just connect with other amazing women, this is your sign. Women’s travel retreats are more than worth it, especially when they’re led by Into the Wild.
