Going solo doesn’t have to mean travelling alone with our range of tours and cruises designed with independent travellers in mind. These trips typically include extras like a welcome dinner so you can get to know your fellow explorers plus groups are generally smaller than the average tour. There are lots of trips to choose from whether you want a short break in Bruges, to explore the Dalmatian Coast by yacht or discover the heritage of Vietnam and Cambodia. Plus there are river cruise options too. Or you could follow the advice of our Money team and join a small group adventure tour, you’ll typically pay no single supplement if you’re happy to share with another traveller making them great value - find out more here. So now you just have to decide where to visit…
