Hi, friends! So we know solo travel seems to be the buzz at the moment, but we fiercely believe in group travel. We mainly travel in our friendship group, but have seen so many other people complain that their friends never come through. We’ve taken it upon ourselves to do some research into group trip organisers – having nobody to travel with shouldn’t keep anyone at home! Here is our find of four group travel coordinators, based in London, that you need to know:
Wind Collective
It won’t take you long to notice the intensely high quality of the photography and video content prepared by the Wind Collective’s trips. You’ll discover that whilst booking onto the trip does not include flights it will include your accommodation, activities and a professional photoshoot session with their creative team. If your friends are always letting you down because they can never get your angles right, you won’t have to worry about that with around here. Additionally, if travelling purely for personal gain isn’t your style, Wind Collective have arranged “give back” sessions to enable travellers to have a positive impact with their tourism and do some good with their travels. Our hearts are all warm and fuzzy – how’s that for flights and feelings?
- Previous Trip(s): Dubai, Cuba
- Upcoming Trip(s): Jamaica, January 2019. Colombia, February 2019
World Changer Life
Africa isn’t just amazing, it’s everything. World Changer Life connect the diaspora with the motherland. From road trips between major South African cities to an adventure of discovery in Kenya, a World Changer Xperience is one that will have you full to the brim with a new understanding of a variety of African traditions, cultures and customs. With the next trip announced almost a year ahead, there is plenty of time to pay flexibly for a group trip that will undoubtedly turn strangers into friends – or even family!

Baba’s Flight Club
In its first year, Baba’s Flight Club has flown groups to over four continents. With flights and accommodation included, all you need to do is join the family (sign up for email updates) for the scoop on when trips will be announced and choose the trip that sounds good to you! We don’t doubt you’ll be spoilt for choice in 2019.

Black British Travel Meet Up
BBTMU does an amazing job of drawing the black British travel community together, particularly those based in and around London. After a successful year of meet ups, from a group bowling night to a summer day party at Facebook’S London HQ , BBTMU hosted their first group trip to The Netherlands in September 2018. Unfortunately we couldn’t join, but we know a few people who did and it looked like they all had an amazing time. We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled on the TL for news of another trip in the same way we do for news of their London meet up events!
- Previous Trip(s): Amsterdam and Eindhoven – The Netherlands, September 2018
- Upcoming Trip(s): TBC – keep up with the community on Twitter and Instagram @BBTravelMeetUp
