GROUP TRAVEL OVER 40 & MOTHER DAUGHTER TRIPS
Where luxury meets the desire for adventure and connection… our Scout Escapes+ women’s group trips are curated for travelers Gen X and beyond. Whether you’re reigniting your passion for travel, rediscovering your sense of independence, or looking to explore the world with like-minded women to create new friendships, we craft unforgettable trips with a balance of adventure and indulgence.
We welcome mother daughter duos, career women, busy moms, empty nesters, divorcees or anyone who is simply looking to escape their day-to-day life.
WHERE WE’RE STAYING
We want to prioritize your comfort and convenience to provide you the best experience on this trip, so we have chosen beautiful 5-star hotels in the Provençal countryside and the heart of the French Riviera, Nice, both of which have rave reviews, premium amenities and luxurious hotel designs.
Chateau de Fonscolombe (3 nights) is a luxurious 18th-century estate turned 5-star hotel in Provence, France, offering elegant accommodations, exquisite dining, and a pool surrounded by serene gardens and vineyards
Anantara Plaza Nice (4 nights) has elegant rooms, a rooftop restaurant and stylish bar, a wellness spa, and personalized concierge services, all just steps from the iconic Promenade des Anglais.

MEET YOUR HOST
Hi friends! I’m Anne—a self-proclaimed travel junkie and hotel fanatic who’s always up for an adventure. I’ve been a luxury travel advisor for two years but have been curating unforgettable trips for family and friends for over a decade. I love exploring new places, diving into different cultures, and hunting down the best food and wine a destination has to offer. (I love wine so much that I’m working on my sommelier certification this year!)
With a background in Art History, I’m also passionate about the art and architecture of cities like Rome, Paris, Madrid and beyond. I’ve traveled extensively—28 countries and counting – and even lived in Vienna during my undergrad days.
In travel, my superpower is finding the fun in every experience, even when things don’t go as planned. I believe every experience is a story to tell and a memory to make. I also believe that finding your tribe (girlfriends who have the same spark for travel that you do) is a special magic all its own. With that in mind, consider me your new travel bestie—I can’t wait to explore some dazzling destinations with you!

HOTELS & PRICING
- In Europe, it’s common for the same room type in a hotel to differ in size based on its placement in the building, therefore not all rooms will be the exact same size or have the same decor.
- All pricing is based on double occupancy per hotel room. If you would like to inquire about having a single room, the price and room will be based upon availability.
EXPERIENCES & FREE TIME
- We want to provide the classic sought over activities in these destinations while also making them unique. We work with only the best partners to curate our group experiences.
- All experiences included in the itinerary are fixed into the price and you are unable to opt out of those.
- You will have some time in each location to explore on your own and we will provide a list of suggestions for you!
PRE/POST TRIP
- For those of you wanting to arrive early or extend your stay – we can help with that! We would be happy to assist you in arranging your pre or post trip!
TRAVEL INSURANCE
- We will require everyone to have travel insurance for this trip! You can purchase this insurance through us or through your own provider but this will cover things like lost luggage, flight delays, medical coverage, and more. We offer very affordable travel insurance options!
FLIGHTS
- It is best to book your flight in advance as soon as you are able, especially since we are traveling at a popular time.
- We always recommend booking your flights directly with the airlines to receive the best cancellation policy and have the best customer service when it comes to canceled flights, missed connections, or lost luggage. Booking with a third party can be hit or miss when you are trying to get help!
- If you have questions about booking your flights, we will be happy to help!
- Flights should be booked at least one month before departure so we can appropriately schedule the transfers from/to the airport. There will be two departure times based on everyone’s flight schedule to accommodate as many as possible.
MEALS
- Any meals mentioned in the itinerary are included in the price. All other meals are at your own expense. We will have nightly reservations at restaurants every night if you would like to join the group, but we will provide other recommendations for you.
SAFETY
- Safety is very important to us! For group activities and travel during the trip we will all be together. During your free time we ask that you let us know where you are headed and when you plan to be back.
- We will create a group chat for everyone to stay in contact with one another, and we recommend when going off on your own to go off in pairs!
- We will be staying in and only visiting safe areas of the city.
