What are solo tours?
Solo tours are group trips designed for independent travellers who want to explore the world with others — without the need for a travel companion. You’ll enjoy expert-led itineraries, shared experiences, and the freedom to travel on your own terms, all while meeting like-minded people.
Is it easy to meet other travellers on these tours?
Yes! Solo tours are specifically designed to encourage connection. With small group sizes, shared meals, and included activities, you'll naturally meet fellow travellers and often make lasting friendships.
What is included in the price of a solo tour?
Solo tour prices typically include accommodation (often in a private room), guided excursions, and transportation between destinations. Some meals and experiences are also covered, depending on the itinerary. Optional activities, additional meals, and personal expenses are usually not included. Always review the specific tour details to see exactly what's part of the package.
Will I have to share a room with someone?
Many tours offer the option of a private room for solo travellers, sometimes included in the price or available for a supplement. Be sure to check the specific tour’s accommodation details when booking.
What kinds of destinations are available on solo tours?
Destinations range from iconic cities and cultural hubs to far-flung adventures. Popular tours include places like Japan, Australia, Norway, and Vietnam — designed for curious travellers looking for immersive experiences and connections. Can't see your preferred destination?
