Tattoos are not required. But if this is how strong the bond gets, imagine what your trip is going to feel like. 

Nine out of seventeen women decided to get our community symbol, now also our logo, tattooed together. Not because we gave them too many piña coladas (at least that night), but because that's what the trip had become to them.

That's what a SoFe trip does. When you bring together curious, open-minded women who love solo travel and send them somewhere extraordinary for 10 days, real friendships form. The kind that don’t come easy in adulthood.

Since that first tour, 97% of our travelers say they keep in touch with at least one friend they made on a SoFe trip.

If matching tattoos doesn't demonstrate a strong bond, we don't know what does.

Don’t take it from us! Here’s what our travelers say.

"I’ve met some of my favorite friends on SoFe Tours. My first trip was in 2019 and I am about to go on my 11th to Nepal & Bhutan. I can’t wait to travel with some of my SoFe girls and also make some new friends. I freaking love this company and the women who choose it." - Aiheeya

"I came on my first trip not knowing a single person. By day three I had a group of women I was already planning my next trip with and going on my 8th SoFe tour in a couple week. I genuinely didn't expect that when I booked my first trip.” - Tiffany

Here’s the thing about SoFe travelers

They're a specific kind of person: curious, open-minded, done waiting for the right time or the right person to say yes. They chose Uganda or Ecuador or Kyrgyzstan when they could have chosen anywhere. That tells you everything you need to know about who you'll be sitting next to at dinner.

Come with a smile and an open heart, and honestly, it's pretty hard not to make new friends.
