Join us for a ladies trip to sunny Southern California to taste the delicious wines of Temecula while staying in a beautiful, Spanish-style villa that's 7000 square feet and has all the luxuries you'd expect for a girls wine trip. We will be tasting wine (of course), but also adding in some Chicas Abroad adventure activities with a sunrise hot air balloon ride and a whale watching excursion off the coast of San Diego!

We will be walking through the vineyards to enjoy wine-tasting, but that's it. This is a very relaxing adventure with minimal physical activity. Although, there will be ample opportunity to walk around the beautiful grounds and surrounding areas of our villa in the hills of Temecula wine country.

The weather in Temecula in March is mildly cool with a gentle breeze, with average highs of 69°F (20°C) and lows of 47°F (8°C). A perfect time for escaping reality and enjoying fine wine in a beautiful location!

All the excursions listed in the itinerary are included. Bring cash/credit cards for purchasing souvenirs, additional snacks/meals, alcoholic drinks, extra activities, and other items.All gratuities are included with the exception of those for your Chicas Abroad tour leader. Tipping the Chicas Abroad tour leader is optional and not included in the price of your adventure.

Sedona was a wonderful adventure with family, past Chicas, and new Chicas. It is a blessing to show up and have Melanie, the leader, get us to where we are to go; pay for the meals etc. I am 68 and not a fast hiker, however, the group was patient with me and always had my back, along with encouraging words. If I had to say no to a particular section of the hike where the group could meet me on the return that was completely acceptable. Memories were formed that are eternal: so worth the expense and time. God Bless

By Rebecca M for SOLD OUT! Sedona Hiking Adventure on Nov 13, 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed the Chicas Abroad hiking trip to Sedona. When they say that they take care of all the details, they mean it. All you have to do is register and show up! It is a worry free adventure where both introverts and extroverts are welcome. The food was delicious and the company even better! The hiking, scenery, and day trip to antelope canyon were memorable experiences. I can’t wait to sign up for my next adventure with Chicas Abroad!

By Marcia R for SOLD OUT! Sedona Hiking Adventure on Nov 07, 2024

The hiking was amazing, the weather was perfect, and the gals on the trip were fantastic! Jocelyn and Melanie planned everything and anticipated every detail. I can’t wait to travel with the group again and have already signed up for another trip! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

By Amy F for Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Sea Kayaking Adventure on Aug 23, 2024

This was the best experience I have ever had! The guides (Maddy and Charlie from Lost Creek Adventures) were super knowledgeable and helpful, and made me feel very comfortable kayaking for the first time. It was all well organized, and the food was amazing! The Apostle Islands were so beautiful. I had an amazing time. Thank you so much.
