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.

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!

What makes Solo Tours different from other tours?

We specially designed these group tours for solo travelers!

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.

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
