No one to go on holiday with? Come with us
Your friends can't get the same week off, your family has its own plans, and going completely on your own doesn't quite appeal? It's far more common than you might think – plenty of people in the UK find themselves with annual leave and no one to share it with. That's why we run holidays for solo travellers – organised small group holidays for adults that you can join entirely on your own.
You don't need to know anyone before you go. We take care of the hotel, airport transfer, programme and on-site support, and you simply join a group of like-minded people who – just like you – want to unwind, see somewhere new and enjoy good company.

Who are our solo holidays for?
- people whose friends can't or don't want to travel at the same time,
- solo travellers and anyone who'd rather not travel completely alone,
- anyone who'd like to meet new people – with no pressure and no dating vibe,
- adults of all ages – we don't split travellers into age groups.
You're also welcome to bring one other person along – a friend or a family member.
How it works – step by step
- Choose your holiday and fill in the booking form.
- Pay a £300 deposit within 24 hours – and your place is secured. The balance is due no later than 45 days before departure.
- Around 5 days before departure we set up a WhatsApp group, so you know who's coming and where and when we're meeting.
- You meet up at the UK airport and fly out together on the recommended flight. When you land, an organised transfer to the hotel is waiting.
- Our tour leader is with you throughout the holiday: a welcome dinner together, a planned programme, excursions – and free time whenever you want it.
Rooms, flights and costs – no surprises
Room: as standard, you share a twin room with another traveller of the same sex. A single room is available for a supplement, where the hotel can offer one.
Flight: not included – each holiday lists a recommended flight from the UK that the whole group takes. Please only buy your ticket once we've confirmed the group is full enough and the holiday is going ahead.
Payments: £300 deposit when you book, with the balance due no later than 45 days before departure. Payments are protected by Protected Trust Services (PTS 5457).
This isn't a dating agency
Our solo group holidays are about travelling together, not speed dating. We don't pair anyone up and there are no forced 'getting to know you' games. If friendships form along the way, wonderful – but above all we're there to relax, explore and have a great time. Evenings out are optional, and if you'd rather spend the evening by the pool with a good book, nobody will try to talk you out of it.
