As protagonists in the industry and in travel decisions, women are driving adventure tourism, a movement that inspired PlanetaEXO in selecting these destinations
International Women’s Day, on March 8th, opens space for reflections on historical struggles and equal rights, subjects that have concrete resonance in current tourism. Besides their presence in the market, exploring the world increasingly appears as part of women’s life projects.

In 2025, the “Os Sonhos Delas” research, conducted by non-profit Think Olga, showed that traveling the world is a priority desire for 67% of Brazilian women from age 18 to 29 and for 59% of women over 30, surpassing goals such as financial stability and career consolidation.
In this context, adventure tourism is also growing among the female audience, reflecting a search for authentic experiences, connection with nature, and environments for exchange.
With this in mind, PlanetaEXO, an ecotourism platform specializing in adventure tours in Brazil, has selected 5 adventure trips for women. Check them out below!
