@santiago_garcia_zuluaga thanks!

@mkovacev Sometimes it's very difficult to find the right parameter for each traveler. We defined the standard for the industry making the selection as simple as possible and bringing quality results to all our customers.

@mkovacev its a good request and one we considered carefully. We aim to balance the best user experience without confusing 'typical' users and still providing power users more flexibility. Its a challenge given the way different operators describe their trips in the short term and our tagging accuracy but stay tuned in future as we'll certainly bringing more customization to the search/matching process.

@kalyan_tulachan1 Hi Kalyan, thanks for your question! Our preferred and premier badges are status categories that Stride has created to help users sort quickly through known and reliable travel companies. They are awarded to companies with a 4.0 rating or higher, fair transparent pricing, high safety standards, creative and helpful itinerary design.

@kalyan_tulachan1 thanks and good question. Also to add to Samanthas comment... just because a trip or operator does not have the Preferred ( or 'Premier', the highest) doesnt necessarily mean its not great. It may just mean we dont have enough reviews yet for that company or that our team has not yet investigated and verified the other quality measures we look at. But any trips that have the badge you can be extra confident with that they are a tried and true reputable company with excellent customer service.

@travel_samantha @gavindelany Thank you! That helps a lot. Found my trip to Spain.

@emikil Thanks Emanuel. Stride does not currently support "semantic search" which is what I think you are asking for. That would indeed be cool and its certainly possible. We will be testing it in near future but part of the tricky part is balancing that type of search experience with most people who are not used to it vs 'traditional search and filters'. Would you be interested in joining our beta testing group for that feature?

@victor_spano Thanks Victor!

@stevebenson Thanks for the great feedback!

@jim22_ Hi Hannah, thanks for your question! Yes, there's a few different options. You can search for "solo friendly" tours - these are typically group tours as opposed to self guided - so you'll be with a guide and fellow travelers. We also have some tours that are women only. You can search for "women only" in the search bar from the home page :)

@jim22_ I'd like to add to Samantha's response which is completely correct. Also keep in mind pretty much any trip listed on Stride as Type: Group, Small Group, Cruise, or Private Guided will be SAFE for a solo female traveler. Most of the Self guided or Independent trip packages would also be considered safe for a solo female depending on your level of experience traveling internationally. Thanks for trying it out!
