ABOUT 13 WEEKS HOLIDAYS

See the world. Find your travel tribe.

Curated group trips for women travelling from the UK—planned around the school holidays and designed for connection, adventure and unforgettable experiences.

Whether you arrive alone or with a friend, you will never feel like you are travelling alone.

OUR STORY

Travel is better with the right women.

Created by a woman who understands how difficult it can be to find someone to travel with.

13 Weeks Holidays was founded by Bolupe Maborukoje—an entrepreneur, former teacher, mother of three and experienced traveller who has visited more than 60 countries.

After years of planning holidays, group trips and destination event for experiences, Bolupe recognised a recurring problem: many women wanted to see the world, but their friends and family were not always available to travel when they were.

Some were restricted by the UK school calendar. Others had the time and money to travel but didn’t have the right person to go with. Many simply wanted to meet new, like-minded women while exploring somewhere extraordinary.

13 Weeks Holidays was created to solve that problem.

Our trips bring women together from across the UK to experience carefully selected destinations in a welcoming and professionally organised group.

You can come alone. We will provide the travel tribe.

OUR MISSION

Helping women stop waiting and start travelling.

Our mission is to make group travel easier, safer and more meaningful for women who are ready to explore the world.

We take care of the planning, accommodation, activities and group logistics so that our travellers can arrive, relax and enjoy the experience.

Every trip is designed to create the right balance of:

  • Beautiful destinations
  • Curated experiences
  • Rest and luxury
  • Culture and adventure
  • Fun and genuine connection
  • Time to explore at your own pace

This is more than a holiday. It is an opportunity to experience the world, create lasting memories and build meaningful friendships along the way.

WHY 13 WEEKS?

Group trips designed around the way women actually live.

The name 13 Weeks reflects the rhythm behind our trips. There are 13 weeks of UK school holiday. This gives our community a new opportunity to travel.

Our departures are planned around:

  • February half term
  • Easter holidays
  • May half term
  • Summer holidays
  • October half term
  • Christmas and New Year

This makes our trips particularly suitable for mothers, educators, professionals and busy women who need to plan their holidays around specific periods of the year.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

Come for the destination. Stay for the community.

Welcoming group travel

Many of our guests join without knowing anyone else and leave with a bestie. We create a warm, inclusive environment where women can feel comfortable, make friends and enjoy travelling as part of a supportive group.

Carefully curated experiences

Every destination, accommodation and itinerary is selected with our travellers in mind. We combine memorable activities with enough time to relax and enjoy the destination.

Travel during UK school holidays

Our collections are built around the periods when our community is most likely to be available. You no longer have to search endlessly for a trip that fits the school calendar.

Small, connected groups

We keep our groups intentionally small so that travellers can get to know one another and enjoy a more personal experience.

Flexible payment options

Our payment plans allow you to secure your place with a deposit and spread the remaining cost before departure.

Support throughout your journey

From your initial enquiry to your return home, the 13 Weeks team is available to guide you through the booking process and help you prepare for your trip.
