Delta Zeta Alumnae Embark on Unforgettable Tour of Spain

This spring, Delta Zeta alumnae took off on the adventure of a lifetime — together. 

In partnership with EF Go Ahead Tours, Delta Zeta traveled to Spain from March 22–30, 2025, for a journey filled with culture, connection and unforgettable memories. From the vibrant streets of Barcelona to the historic charm of Madrid, sisters and their loved ones experienced the beauty of Spain while deepening the bonds of sisterhood.  

Hear from one of our travelers, Jennifer Scoggins, Lambda Alpha-Arkansas Tech University, as she shares highlights from this incredible experience. 

“You are going to a whole other country, and you do not know anyone else going?” This was a comment that I heard over and over before Delta Zeta’s inaugural trip to Spain. Yes, I was nervous about my first international trip, but I was not worried about who I’d be with. Why … because I already have one thing in common. We are all Delta Zetas.  

I felt as if I’d known these women my whole life; and we’d just met hours prior. The age ranges of the women didn’t matter either. I bonded with women fresh out of college and just starting their careers, to women well established in their careers. From wandering the streets of Barcelona in a torrential rainstorm, to watching a flamenco show that took my breath away, to shopping for Christmas tree ornaments all over Spain, these women have become lifelong friends and mentors. We now share memories and stories that I’ll cherish forever. I know I can reach out to them anytime I have a question or if I want to chat.  

I cannot thank Delta Zeta enough for planning this trip. I’ve always wanted to travel but I’ve always said, “when I get married” or “when I retire.” So, when the Facebook post for this trip came across my feed, I immediately clicked the link to learn more. I also emailed Kayla Kruger, Director of Marketing and Communications, directly to ask her a few more questions. After her reply back, I just knew this was the trip that I was meant to take. Personally, I wanted to change my narrative to “guess what I did” and “remember when.” This adventure renewed my love for personal growth both mentally and spiritually and reignited my flame. “To my mind growth; to myself, faith that I may walk truly in the light of the flame.”  

Ready for your next adventure? 

We’re heading to Italy next! Join Delta Zeta alumnae and loved ones for our next unforgettable journey with EF Go Ahead Tours, happening June 18–26, 2026. From the rolling hills of Tuscany to the breathtaking views along the Amalfi Coast, this trip promises beauty, culture and meaningful connections every step of the way.
