Types of Skiing Explained: Alpine, Nordic, Touring & SkateWhat We're Here For
We run active holidays for women who want to have a go at something new, somewhere unexpected, in good company. Nothing to organise, because a holiday shouldn't feel like work. That's our job.
Our roots, our story
Nat started Gutsy Girls after moving back to London from Portugal, where she had taken up surfing and paddleboarding. She found that knowing where to begin, and who to do it with, is what stops most people. So she made that the easy part. It started as day events, getting women together to try something in London. That grew into weekends away, and then into the trips we run. These days there is a team of us planning them, and a host who travels on every trip.
For women, by women
Our days are packed with outdoor activities. Get into nature, try a new sport and challenge yourself.
Everything is organised, so you can switch off and focus on the adventure.
You won’t find our trips anywhere else. We find fresh takes on destinations, off the beaten path. No other tourists, just us.
We only offer small group trips, designed for solo travellers to meet like-minded women and easily make friends.
Your go-to girl on the ground, making sure everything goes to plan so you can switch off and enjoy the adventure.
Complete novice or halfway to expert, your experience doesn't matter; our trusted local guides have got your back.
