What our solo travelers say

London, Paris, Rome
12/16/2019 by 2nd time traveler Stacey M.
This trip was what Hallmark movies are made of. Words cannot express the magic and passion behind this adventure. The group and director instantly connected and bonded from day one. I started this journey as a solo traveler and gained friendships that will last a lifetime.
London, Paris & Rome
Exceeded Expectations
07/23/2019 by 2nd time traveler Stephanie C.
What makes this trip memorable were the people that I met on this tour. Having a smaller group allowed all of us to get to know each other. I was traveling solo, but I never felt alone because there was always someone to eat, drink, or shop with.
Food & Wine: Southern Italy & Sicily
Dream Vacation Realized!
06/13/2019 by first-time traveler Suzanne L.
This was my first time using a tour company, so I had a few questions before I signed up. The customer service representative that I spoke with answered all of my questions and really helped me feel at ease with taking the leap as a solo traveler. The trip was amazing!

Benefits of traveling solo with a group

What makes Solo Tours different from other tours?

We specially designed these group tours for solo travelers! That means there's no single supplement, travel industry lingo for paying an added fee for a private room, and we won't pair you up with a roommate. You'll enjoy the perks of a private room and be able to explore your destination alongside fellow solo travelers—it's the best of both worlds.

Why should I travel solo with Go Ahead Tours?

Even though you're traveling solo, you'll never be alone. Our worldwide presence gives everyone the safety and security to discover the world with confidence on our solo travel tours. Here’s just a few reasons to travel on our solo guided tours!

  • Security of the EF global network
  • Safety of our On-Tour Support Team (they’re on-call 24/7!)
  • Getting the local's perspective from your Tour Director
  • Meeting like-minded travelers
  • Enjoying the perfect balance of sightseeing tours and time to explore each locale at your leisure
Where should I go on a Solo Tour?

Europe is a perfect place to explore on solo vacation packages! There's culture around every corner and you'll find both locals and travelers alike soaking up every ounce of it. Our solo travel packages take you to the heart of some of the continent's top destinations.

Want to learn how to cook traditional Sicilian cuisine in Sicily? You got it. Does just thinking about Alpine scenery have you humming The Sound of Music soundtrack? We've got you covered. Dreaming of seeing stunning tile work on the streets of Lisbon? We'll take you there too!

When you travel with a group, you'll never go alone
