The Layover comes to you from Kim and Arabella, the founders of SoloTrvlr, the award-winning travel platform that’s “revolutionizing the way women experience solo adventures” by connecting them with trusted local advisors who can unlock a destination in ways no algorithm or AI-itinerary generator can.
We believe that every trip has the power to change you. That travel isn’t just about escape: It’s about making local connections and seeing the world, and yourself, differently. And who better to help travelers uncover the true essence of a place than a local who knows it inside and out.
