Our Story
About Wander The Horizon
Wander The Horizon creates travel experiences for women who want to explore the world in a way that fits them. Choose a thoughtfully planned group trip, practice independence on a Hosted Solo Experience, or work one-on-one with Dee on a Private Solo Experience.
Each experience makes room for meaningful discoveries, genuine connection, and time to enjoy the destination at your own pace.
The People Behind the Journey
Meet the Founder
Founder and Host
Dee Hayles
I'm Dee Hayles, founder of Wander The Horizon. I'm a registered nurse, a veteran, and a woman who has spent more than 16 years traveling solo.
I know the freedom of choosing a destination and going, even when no one else can join you. I also know the value of sharing a meal, discovering a new place with other women, and having someone there to help you take your first step.
I created Wander The Horizon to make room for both.
Travel has taught me that confidence grows through experience. There's something different about finding your way through a new city, choosing what you want to do, and realizing you handled it.
I also believe a great trip needs breathing room. I design experiences with meaningful moments and time to enjoy them, without rushing from one activity to the next.
Your Journey, Your Way

Small Group Trips
Thoughtfully planned journeys for women who want culture, connection, and time to rest.
Hosted Solo Experiences
Travel to the same destination as a small circle of women, then spend much of the trip making your own plans. Dee provides guidance as you practice traveling independently.
Private Solo Experiences
One-on-one guidance for a woman who wants a more personal introduction to solo travel.
Whether you're ready for a group trip or learning how to go your own way, you can start where you are.
