THE TOUR

Since 2023, Outdoor Adventure Girls has been offering bespoke travel tours for their 40,000 members. The international trips will focus on outdoor adventure, pushing guests out of their comfort zone and creating incredible connections with other women in the most sought-after bucket list destinations on Earth.

For this OAG Overseas tour, we are heading to the amazing country of Iceland. It is home to stunning waterfalls, the famous Golden Circle road trip and the stunning Solheimajokull Glacier. The trip includes a jam-packed five days of adventure with stops at all of the most amazing places to see in this magical country. All of this and more is why we are so excited to take you here in 2024.

Note: We decided to move our April trip to November due to various reasons, but most importantly because there was such a high demand for those wanting to have a chance to see the Northern Lights.
