Shivali โ€” travel guide and London local

Solo female travel ยท UK & Europe

The trips you've been dreaming about. Finally.

I help women do the European trips they've been talking themselves out of โ€” the coastal towns, the islands, the hidden gems that feel complicated but really aren't.

From India to figuring it all out from scratch

I moved to the UK from India in 2019 โ€” where solo female travel wasn't exactly encouraged or normalised atleast in my circle. I had to figure out everything from scratch: which pubs locals actually go to, which European destinations are actually doable alone, and how to travel confidently without a group or a partner.

Seven years later I've done it dozens of times. And I've noticed something โ€” the places women most want to go are the ones they keep talking themselves out of. Not because they're dangerous or impossible. Because the logistics feel overwhelming.

"The Amalfi Coast isn't complicated. You've just never had someone show you exactly how to do it."

These are the destinations women dream about and then talk themselves out of. These are exactly the places I help you get to โ€” solo, in a small group, or with a plan that actually works.

Three ways to travel better

01
๐Ÿ‘ฏโ€โ™€๏ธ
Europe ยท Small group

Small Group Trips for Women

Carefully curated small group trips to Europe's lesser known coastal towns, islands and hidden gems. Max 5-7 women only. Not a tour group โ€” a small group of like-minded women who actually get it, doing the trip properly together. Summer 2026 pilots launching soon.

Europe ยท Done for you

Solo Travel Planning

You tell me where you've been dreaming about going. I tell you exactly how to do it alone โ€” accommodation, transport, what to skip, what to actually do. Specifically for the non-city destinations that feel complicated but really aren't.

London ยท Community

Women Exploring London

A community for women visiting or new to London who don't want to do it alone. I organise small informal meetups in the neighbourhoods locals actually live in โ€” real food, real pubs, real London. A way to feel less alone in a new city and find your people. Join the free community โ†’

You've been thinking about it for years

  • โœ“ You want to do the coastal Europe trip โ€” islands, cliff towns, hidden beaches โ€” but keep putting it off because the logistics feel overwhelming
  • โœ“ You're a professional woman with the income to travel well but not the time to plan it properly
  • โœ“ You've done the obvious city breaks and want something different โ€” somewhere that feels real, not set-dressed for tourists
  • โœ“ You'd love to travel with a small group of women who actually get it, without the awkwardness of a big tour
  • โœ“ You're visiting London and want to explore real neighbourhoods with other women โ€” not alone, not on a tourist bus

Stop defaulting to the obvious
