5 Essential Tips for Planning an Amazing Girls’ Road Trip

Getting together with your girlfriends is always a good idea, but sometimes the planning aspect can be a little overwhelming. Here are 5 essential things you need to know to get you and your besties on the road to a great getaway together!

Essential Tip #1: Pick a destination.

Where are you going? What is your budget? This is the most important thing to answer first. Are you going cross country? Want to limit your driving for the sake of immediate relaxation? Maybe somewhere in between the two… a four-hour drive to a destination you’ve yet to discover together. Whatever you’re choosing, you need to also consider the pricing per night split between all of you. Are you all craving some time by the beach? A snowy ski location?  Once you set your location, the rest falls into place.

Essential Tip #2: Your place of stay matters.

Where are you staying? Resort? Hotel? Rental Property? Are you and your girls going to need multiple rooms? You’ll need to consider how long it will take all of you to get ready to go out each day. Being limited to one bathroom with multiple women is no fun no matter how you slice it. Showers, toilets, and access to a mirror are all essential when getting ready morning, noon, or night. Also… what amenities you want during your stay? Is there close proximity of things to do if you so desire, and access to other potential non-negotiables like pool, spa services, etc.? Answer these questions before you all settle on place to stay.

Essential Tip #3: Plan on taking your time.

Give yourselves time to get to your destination, plan for stops along the way for gas, restroom breaks, etc. Share the driving time so that no one gets completely exhausted or overwhelmed. Remember, getting there is half the fun! Pack snacks, a playlist, and some comfort items for the drive like a blanket for those who are always prone to being cold and multiple cords to charge your phone! Prior to your trip, map out some fun places to dine, take photos, and maybe see an attraction along the way. All you have is time, make sure you make the most of it!

Essential Tip #4: Pre-plan things to do.

What will you do during your stay at the destination you have all chosen? What types of excursions can you book beforehand? Winery hopping, water sports, massages and facials, paint and sip, hiking, etc. No matter what you choose, you should not attempt any excursion without preplanning it all. With your favorite Pineapple Escapes agent at your side, all of this planning is done by her, according to your wishes. Give your agent all the details and leave it to her to plan everything for you from start to finish. Her services include all the research, planning, booking, and resolution to any hiccups that may arise.

Essential Tip #5: Have fun!

The objective here is to have a good time, the entire time! No matter what is going on in your individual lives, remember on this trip you are a collective on a mission to bond, make memories, laugh, and listen to one another. This is your time to be present for one another and create moments in time captured in photos, videos, and stories you’ll retell forever. Block out anything and everything else and focus on one another.
