Travelling solo can be daunting, so we’ve put together group itineraries across a wide selection of destinations that are ideal for single travellers. If you want to experience new cultures, a solo trekking holiday, exciting activities, or some of the world’s most stunning scenery, we can take the hard work out of your planning. And, because half of our travellers also choose to holiday solo, you won’t be the only one in the group!
Planning for one of our solo holidays is easier than you might think. Of course, as with any other trip, you’ll want to consider travel insurance, foreign currency, and any required visas or vaccinations for the destination you’ll be travelling to.
As our trips include expert guides, you’ll have someone on hand to recommend and advise you along the way, should you need any help. And, because your itinerary is taken care of, all you’ll need to worry about while you’re there is having fun!
Our solo travel tours offer a way of experiencing your ideal single traveller holiday as part of a larger group.
Choose your ideal tour, your departure dates, and whether you want flights included. Your selected trip notes will include details of the itinerary, accommodation, weather, food, and transport. Plus, other practical information to prepare you for the trip.
Depending on your chosen solo tour, you’ll spend one to three weeks exploring your selected destination with a range of organised activities. Some of your trip will be allocated as free time to enable you to discover the area at your own leisure.
Some tours and activities are suited to most travellers while others require a certain level of fitness. To find out whether a tour is right for you, take a look at the ‘essential info’ tab on your chosen holiday.
Our small guided-group tours are led by experienced local experts and normally have around 8-16 people in one group. We pride ourselves on having an interest-packed itinerary that’s been fine-tuned to showcase the highlights and hidden gems your destination has to offer.
We also like to encourage an inclusive atmosphere with our guided-group adventures, so most days are spent taking part in daily activities with your group. When it comes to mealtimes, check your trip notes to see what breakfasts, lunches, and dinners are included in our itineraries.
On some evenings, your guide will accompany you to dinner and help you choose which regional specialities to try. However, we also like to include some downtime and free days on our trips. This gives you the freedom to explore as you like and heed the guidance of our local expert, who will give great suggestions of where to eat and the best museums and local art galleries to visit. They can also help you organise optional activities like kayaking, ziplining, and more.
We’re lucky to have travellers joining us from all over the world, with many coming from the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, in a wide range of ages. And what’s more, over 50% of our customers choose to travel solo with us so we rarely have a group that only has one solo traveller – most comprise a good mix of solos, couples, and friends travelling together.
Prior to your trip, why not join in the discussion on our Facebook community group, The Boot Room. It’s a space for our Exodus adventurers—where you can post a message, start a discussion with other travellers, ask questions, and share travel tips. This is a great way to get to know your group before you head off on your adventure.
Our tour groups normally have 8-16 people in them. We find that this is an ideal number as it’s not too large and allows everyone to get to know each other.
As over half of our travellers are also on solo holidays with us, it’s a good group size to find others with similar interests to share experiences with.
Your leader will usually meet you at the destination airport and the entire group will get together for the first time at the specified start hotel. This will be detailed in your itinerary and trip notes.
Travelling on a guided-group tour can be more cost-effective than travelling solo on your own, as you could split the cost of some optional activities with the group.
The majority of transfers, included meals, and organised activities are also covered in your booking costs too, which can all add up if you’re travelling alone, especially if you’re looking to travel in remote locations.
Each solo holiday is given an activity rating which will help you decide if the tour is right for you.
Our ratings relate to fitness levels, expected weather conditions, and the schedule pace, amongst other factors. They’re also dependent on the type of trip you’re considering such as solo cycling holidays or solo ski holidays.
It’s important to find out the activity level of the tour before booking to make sure it’s one you’re comfortable with.
