Why Travel Solo?

Travelling solo can feel daunting, especially if it’s your first time or you’ve always had someone by your side. The questions start to pile up — - What do I need to organise? - Will I manage the journey alone? - Will I meet other solo travellers? - What if I end up without company? For many, these worries become barriers that stop them from exploring new destinations and enjoying the very things they set out for: sunshine, relaxation, discovery, and the joy of experiencing somewhere new. But solo travel also brings a unique kind of freedom — the freedom to: - choose your own destination - set the pace of your holiday - pick the tours, excursions, and experiences that excite you - connect with local culture in your own way These are the moments that should inspire you, not hold you back.

WHAT OUR SOLO TRAVELLERS SAY

Reading on the Water

SARAH

Never travelled before but Bill organised a wonderful train journey from London down to Milan and back with accommodation.  Was perfect and his attention in every detail was fantastic.

Man in Wheelchair

I lost my partner after an accident and was so scared of travelling alone.  Bill reassured me that it would be good and I would enjoy it after I got over the first nerves - he was right and I'm booking again next year.

CHRIS

I was worried about travelling half way around the world on my own, the thought of going to Japan and meeting strangers to be on holiday with I kept not booking it but Bill organised everything and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  Will definitely book  another and maybe a cruise like he suggested.

Stay connected by sharing your plans with someone you trust, and embrace local culture by trying new foods, joining small group activities, or chatting with residents. Most importantly, trust your instincts, stay aware of your surroundings, and give yourself permission to enjoy the freedom that comes with exploring the world entirely on your own. - Remember pack smart, pack light - check weather - Remember some religions require certain dress codes - Use accessible transport apps, always ensure travel safe and with trusted sources - Stay safe, choose well-lit areas and central locations with more public. Or ensure that you tell someone where you are going and check in with them regularly. - Pre-book accessibility services with us and locally - Keep digital copies of ALL documents, use Hotel safes or store paper documents separate from luggage and hidden.
