Tauck Expands Women’s Only Small Group Tours for 2027

Tauck has announced the expansion of its Women’s Only collection of small group tours for 2027, increasing the portfolio to seven itineraries and expanding into North America for the first time.

Back in March, Tauck launched three women-only departures in Europe for fall 2026. These itineraries average 24 guests per group and are led by a female tour director. The initial collection offered a single special departure for three pre-existing itineraries: A Week In… Ireland, A Week In… Piedmont, and A Week In… Portugal.

The family-owned tour operator is expanding the Women’s Only Departures in 2027, with more itineraries and more dates. While the eight-day A Week In… Portugal returns, the other six itineraries span Italy, France, Scandinavia, England, and Canada. The tours will run from June to October, with some itineraries having more than one women-only departure.

“For women accustomed to juggling so much, there is quiet luxury in letting every detail be handled by someone else,” said Jennifer Tombaugh, CEO of Tauck. “Expanding the program across two continents reflects a real desire among women to travel together and connect with the people and places that bring a destination to life.”

The 2027 Women’s Only Departures include:

  • A Week In… Champagne & Alsace: a new eight-day itinerary focused on France’s renowned wine regions
  • A Week In… Italy’s Hidden Wine Country: an eight-day journey through Italy’s “slow-food heartland.”
  • A Week In… Copenhagen & Oslo: an eight-day exploration of Denmark and Norway’s capital cities.
  • Tuscany, Cinque Terre & the Portofino Coast: another eight-day tour of Italy, but focused on the culinary heritage and coastal scenery of the northwestern region.
  • England and the West Country: an 11-day exploration of Southwest England, covering Cotswolds, Bath, Windsor, Avebury, Cornwall, Devon, Glastonbury, and Dartmoor National Park.
  • A Week In… Portugal: an eight-day tour from Porto to Lisbon.
  • Canada’s Capital Cities plus Niagara Falls: a 10-day land tour of Eastern Canada, covering Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City, Toronto, Niagara Falls, and Niagara-on-the-Lake.

All 2027 Women’s Only Departures are now available to book.
