About Her Travel Circle

Q: What is Her Travel Circle?

A: Yes. This is a women-only platform designed by and for women. We believe in creating safe, supportive spaces where women can travel freely, form real connections, and feel at ease.

How It Works

Q: How do I use the platform?
A: Once you subscribe and create your profile, you can browse our members/hosts, message them directly or chat on our members only group and arrange your stay. All communication and agreements happen between you and your host; Her Travel Circle simply helps you connect.

Q: Do I book through the site?
A: No. We’re not a booking platform; we’re a connection platform. You and your host handle the details independently.

Q: Is it only for overnight stays?
A: Not at all. Some women offer a spare room; others just want to meet up for coffee or show you around their city. It's about building community, not just finding a bed.

Q: Do I need to stay at someone’s home to use the platform?
A: Not at all. Many women use Her Travel Circle just to connect, whether that’s meeting for coffee, getting local tips, or finding a friendly face in a new city. You’re welcome to use the platform for stays, meetups, or simply building your travel network. It’s about connection, not obligation.

Safety & Trust

Q: How do I know it’s safe?
A: You can view reviews from past guests and hosts, read detailed profiles, and chat with potential hosts before making any arrangements.

Q: What if I feel unsure about a host?
A: Trust your instincts. You’re never obligated to stay anywhere you’re not comfortable with. Our community is built on mutual respect and consent, you’re in control.

Q: Can I stay with another solo traveller like me?
A: Absolutely! Many of our hosts are fellow solo women who understand what you need: a secure, welcoming place to rest, recharge, or share stories over wine.

Q: Are all the hosts women?
A: Yes, only women can host on Her Travel Circle. Some hosts live alone, while others share their home with partners, children, and/or pets. Every listing includes those details, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before you arrange a stay. It’s all about transparency and comfort.

A: We charge a small subscription fee to access the network for a full calendar year. This helps keep the community genuine and supports the safe, ad-free platform. We don’t take any commission on stays.

Q: Do I have to pay for accommodation?
A: No. Some hosts may ask for a contribution towards costs (airport pickup, meals, etc). You’ll discuss that directly with the host, it’s all about clarity, honesty and consent.

Q: Why don’t you handle bookings or payments?
A: We believe in empowering women to set their own terms. You and your host decide what works best for you. Our role is to help you find each other.
