Travel Afghanistan & Explore the lives of Afghan Women in Context

Discover Afghanistan Through the Eyes of Its Women

A once-in-a-lifetime journey through Afghanistan, guided by the incredible women who call this country home. This tour offers a rare opportunity to explore Afghanistan’s rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant culture from a perspective rarely seen by outsiders.

From the bustling streets of Kabul to the serene lakes of Band-e Amir, wandering through vibrant bazaars, exploring ancient landmarks, or sipping coffee at a female-run café, this is a truly unique tour curated in cooperation with local Afghan women and our operators.

The heart of this tour lies in the stories shared by Afghan women—entrepreneurs, artisans, and educators—who bring each site to life with their personal experiences and insights. Along the way, you’ll visit women-led initiatives, from craft markets to community centres, and gain a deeper understanding of their pivotal role in shaping Afghanistan today. All whilst being guided by local female tour guides.

We offer three different tours. All of the tours give you the opportunity to travel to the main provinces and must-sees of Afghanistan, including Kabul, Bamiyan, Band-e-Amir, Mazar, Herat, and conservative Kandahar. You can choose to be on a more women-focused trip, or join one of our general tours, which will still partake in a limited number of women-focused activities.

Afghan Sisters: Travel Afghanistan Women’s Tour (Guided by local Afghan women, women-only participants)
Afghan Sisters: Travel Afghanistan Mixed Tour (Guided by local Afghan women, male & female participants)
Travel Afghanistan, Blue Mosque to Bamiyan (Guided by a male guide, male & female participants)

With very small group sizes, priority for returning travellers, and rigorous safety measures in place, these tours promise a deeply rewarding and responsible travel experience.

Adventure. Connection. Discovery. Afghanistan is calling.
