About Cummari

  • Founded by an international executive who retired her suitcase, Miche set out to create what she felt the world lacked—something truly made for solo female travelers. Read More.

  • Cummari is an inclusive environment. Historically women have not always been/felt safe when travelling solo and for this reason we prioritize guests who identify as female.​ With that being said, all genders and identities are welcomed and are vital to supporting Cummari's vision and existence.
