Travel with the Girls? Here’s How to Keep the Vibes Drama-Free
We’ve all heard the stories (or lived through them): fallouts over money, messy attitudes, someone ghosting the itinerary, or that one friend who suddenly doesn’t “do excursions” once you land. Whew.
But guess what? It doesn’t have to be that way. When done right, traveling with your girls can be nothing short of magical. Champagne toasts, shared laughs, late-night talks, and memories that go way beyond the ‘Gram.
Girls’ trips can either be the highlight of your year... or the reason you’re side-eyeing the group chat until further notice.
So, if you want to keep the vibes high and the drama low on your next girls' getaway, here’s how to do it like a pro:
1. Discuss Money BEFORE the Group Chat Starts Buzzing
Money is the #1 trip killer. Period.
Before y’all even start dreaming about matching swimsuits, talk budgets. Be real about what everyone can comfortably afford and stick to destinations and experiences that work for the majority.
Pro tip? Use payment plans (we offer them for a reason!) and be transparent early so no one feels caught off guard later.
2. Assign Roles And Stick to Them
There’s always that one person who loves spreadsheets, the foodie who lives for restaurant finds, and the one who’s lowkey the group mom. Let everybody lean into their strengths.
Trying to do everything as a group of equals sounds cute… until nobody books the rental and y’all are stranded at the airport.
3. Respect Everybody’s Travel Style
Some people wake up at 7 AM ready to explore. Others are still recovering from the pre-trip packing chaos. And that’s OK.
Don’t shame anyone for wanting downtime or extra excursions. Build in flexibility. You don’t have to do everything together to have a good time.
4. Give Each Other Space
You love your girls but that doesn’t mean you want to be in a room with them 24/7. If your budget allows, upgrade to your own room or at least plan time where everyone can reset solo.
Even Beyoncé needs a break from the tour crew sometimes.
5. Don’t Force the Vibe
One person’s “turn up” might be another person’s “I’m staying in tonight.” Respect that. The goal is a drama-free trip, not a cast audition for a reality show.
Want everyone to have a good time? Let people opt out without guilt.
6. Communicate Like Grown Women
Passive-aggressive shade? Ghosting the group? Silent tension during dinner? Nah. If something’s off, talk it out with kindness. Not everything needs a blowup but nothing good comes from letting resentment simmer under the surface.
7. Remember Why You Came
You didn’t book this trip to argue about who owes who $12. You came to vibe, reset, and reconnect with your girls.
So when in doubt? Breathe. Laugh. Let it go.
Because the real glow-up is being able to travel with women who lift each other up, give grace when needed, and know how to keep it cute and classy even when plans go sideways.
So go ahead, book the trip, bring your crew, and follow these golden rules. Because life’s too short to cancel a whole friendship over who took the last mimosa. 🍾
