? WHERE IN THE WORLD – BARCELONA! 


There are few destinations in the world that combine the beach and mountains in such a harmonious way, creating a stunning setting for this vibrant city! Barcelona is famed for its exceptional architecture, quirky arts and delicious food – making it the perfect destination to explore with new friends!


Barcelona’ is home to some of the most magnificent architecture in the world – it is the cradle of the Catalan Modernist movement, which is palpable in almost every corner! 


Most celebrated is Antoni Gaudi, and throughout the city his architectural creations dazzle visitors. Perhaps most breathtaking of all is La Sagrada Familia, one of the most impressive manmade structures in the world. 


Barcelona is full of surprises. Beautiful churches and hidden squares, narrow streets filled with small bars, boutiques and of course many Spanish restaurants, glimpses of the oceans and her waves as you stroll through the city, beautiful parks, the Gothic Quarter, Las Ramblas Market, modern art, and of course Tapas and Sangria! 


GGI Travel is all about laughter + chill time + girl time + mini adventures + freedom + making new like-minded friends.


Your travel companions are fellow GGI’s – meaning you are guaranteed to share life experiences and have common connections with each other! Get ready to make 24 new BEST FRIENDS for life!! 

If wandering around the streets of Barcelona marveling at Gaudi’s stunning architectural creations, exploring the beach front and spending relaxing afternoons drinking wine and eating tapas with friends is your thing then you will be super happy here with us!

This adventure was amazing! I really enjoyed traveling to a country that I would have otherwise not been able to visit. I do think that there could have been more accommodations/ it was challenging to participate fully around the town for the scavenger hunt since it was cold and some of us have mobility issues. I also think that there could have been better options for breakfast (more vegan would have been great) and coffee/water/ tea available at all times(!) but overall it was great!

So nice to connect to so many new faces in the CL team! Really well organised and get way to strategize plans for next year! It was also nice to have some down time to get to know one another! I can't wait for the next one, big shout out to everyone who joined this year's summit and to everyone who worked so hard to put this together, I really appreciate it! <3 Samia

I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend my time in Iceland. Perfectly planned with several adventures, meeting wonderful new people and also getting the best tour guides and host to really make this trip memorable. The location was ideal, easy transport to the town, the hotel was perfect with breakfast/all required amenities and it was so lovely to have our own private mini bus to go around Iceland and explore this made this trip very unique! I thoroughly enjoyed it, I'm already thinking about joining again next year! Big shout out to the very clear guide sent to us prior to the trip so we had a good understanding of what to expect of the trip, what to bring and some great top tips! Extremely well organised, thank you so much GGI travel team for this experience, I look forward to joining several more! Samia :) x

This was my first global meet up with Girl Gone International and it most definitely won't be my last! Everything was planned to the T! Violet was great, she was informative, welcoming and definitely went the extra mile in making this one of the best trips I've ever been on. The best part about exploring beautiful Barcelona was doing so with 18 other women from all over the world. I definitely recommend Girl Gone International Trips to any woman looking to explore, meet new friends and enjoy a well organised vacation!
