Question 5

Can I join as a solo traveler?

How fit do I need to be?

Accepted Answer

You don't need to be a super athlete, but a good fitness level helps you enjoy the trip more. Each adventure has specific fitness requirements detailed on its page. Many women use our trips as motivation to get back in shape. And remember, our trips are about balance—plenty of adventure mixed with relaxation and fun.

Question 7

Do I need experience in Yoga to join?

Accepted Answer

Not at all! Our yoga sessions are for all levels. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a newbie, our instructors cater to everyone. Yoga with Locas Only is about connecting mind, body, and spirit—no need to be a pro!

Question 8

How many people can I expect in my group?

Accepted Answer

We keep our groups small and intimate, usually between 10-16 women, including guides. This way, you get a personalized experience and build deeper connections with your fellow travelers.

Benefits of Small Group Travel:
Personalized experiences
Easier logistics
Stronger connections with fellow travelers
Greater flexibility and adaptability

Do you accommodate special dietary requirements?

Yes! Private tours are perfect for family and friends - LocOs included! Whether it's a special celebration or just for fun, we can customize an adventure for your group. Contact us at info@locasonly.au to start planning your personalized trip.

Question 11

What’s included in the trip price?

Accepted Answer

Our trips are designed to be worry-free. We handle accommodations, meals, activities, and expert guides. Check each trip page for specifics on what's included. Feel free to extend your stay before or after the adventure, and we’ll help with recommendations too!

Question 12

Are tips/gratuities included in the price?

Accepted Answer

In general, tips are not included in the price. And, although  tipping is not mandatory, it is sort of expected depending on the destination that you are going to (and very appreciated by the staff!).

Specific tipping guidelines will be provided for each trip under the “Gratuities & Tipping” section on each adventure page.

Question 13

What are the rooming arrangements?

Accepted Answer

Prices are based on twin-share accommodations. We'll pair you with another solo Loca traveler unless you're traveling with someone already.

Question 14

Can I upgrade to a Single Room?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if available. 
Single room upgrades are detailed on each trip page and are first come, first serve. Some trips may have partial upgrade options due to accommodation types.

For example, in our Peru Adventure, you might choose to upgrade to a single room in Cusco & The Sacred Valley, but that won't apply to the Inca Trail where you will be sleeping in a tent with another traveler.

Question 15

Do I need Travel Insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you do! Travel insurance is mandatory for all our trips. It protects you against the unexpected and is a crucial part of your travel planning. Please refer to our section “Travel Insurance” for more information on this topic.
