Best Experience : Exodus Travels

Traveling solo on an Exodus Travels group trip means access to self-guided and guided excursions around the world for every type of traveler. Choose a walking wine holiday in Portugal or explore Egypt via cruise boat and sleeper train, for example. Additionally, its Exodus Edits collection offers shorter itineraries of up to five days and is geared towards travelers in their 30s and 40s—though they’re ideal for anyone looking for more vigorous activity such as ziplining and surfing in Costa Rica or sampling street eats and beach hopping in Sicily. 

There is no single supplement fee when you room with a fellow traveler, and chances are you may end up with your own room anyway. Booking a travel itinerary with UK-based Exodus Travels includes a full refund should the company need to cancel your trip and a complimentary trip transfer to another tour or different person up to 21 days before the scheduled trip. Plus, travelers who book their third or more trips with Exodus receive a 5 percent discount on their next booking.

What’s more, the company works to curate trips that align with a number of United Nations sustainable development goals including goals for responsible consumption and production, empowering local communities, and climate action considerations. Exodus Travels (founded in 1974) was awarded Best Operator in National Geographic Traveller’s sixth annual Reader Awards in 2021.

Best for Ages 35-50 : El Camino Travel

According to El Camino Travel ’s founder, Katalina Mayorga, elder millennials are their strongest customer base. That means if you were born between 1980 and 1985 approximately, you’ll find yourself among curious, like-minded solo travelers looking to immerse themselves in destinations like Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia, and the Eastern European nation of Georgia. Some trips even add a professional photographer to capture shareable shots so you can remain in the moment.

All of El Camino’s guided, small group trips max out at 12 participants. They’re also curated with an ethos of preserving and protecting local culture, the environment, and communities. For example, some of their partners include the Environmental Research Institute Charlotteville in Tobago and La Sierra Artist Residency in Santa Marta, Colombia.

Best Sustainable : G Adventures

G Adventures is particularly known for its sustainable, responsible ethos. The company works with small, locally-owned hotels and operators to ensure your travel dollars benefit the community you’re visiting; outlines policies around child and animal welfare practices; aims to reduce single-use plastics, and works to ensure experiences taking place in Indigenous communities align with community goals.

Founded in 1990, G Adventures specializes in small group adventure tours to a host of destinations from Asia to South America and Africa to the Arctic. Nearly half of the travelers on every trip are flying solo, and there’s no single supplement if you choose to bunk with a same-sex roommate. Or, select your own room for a fee. 

A Chief Experience Officer leads each group tour and itineraries are searchable by travel style. For example, find wellness-centric trips like nine days of daily yoga, visits to Hindu temples, and partake in traditional healing ceremonies in Bali. Or travel with their partner, National Geographic, for an exclusive guided tour of South Africa’s Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden and a visit to Soweto township in Johannesburg, the home of Nelson Mandela. 

G Adventures partnered with hostel booking service Hostelworld in 2021 to launch its Roamies itineraries. Its combination of backpacking and organized travel itineraries includes countries like Albania, Mexico, the Netherlands, and Vietnam. The trips are marketed to 18- to 35-year-olds, though like-minded individuals keen on budget travel and communal environments may enjoy these trips, too.

Best for True Solo Travel : Black Tomato

Courtesy of G Adventures

Black Tomato specializes in bespoke luxury travel experiences. For those interested in traversing around the world solo and willing to pay a premium for tailored itineraries, its adventurous or culturally immersive experiences may just be your ticket.

Your travels might look like hiking and biking in Patagonia, embarking on a spiritual pilgrimage through Bhutan and India, chasing glaciers and geysers in Iceland, or learning to cook Georgia and Armenia’s local dishes or Japan’s regional cuisine.

In 2017, Black Tomato launched its Get Lost adventure travel experience. With the support of a dedicated team, and without prior knowledge of where they're headed, Get Lost participants will find their way home from an undisclosed location. The location is selected based on a pre-travel questionnaire about which environment clients would like to immerse themselves in. Then, they show up at the airport and the adventure begins.

Best for Ages 25-39 : For The Love of Travel

Courtesy of Contiki

With 80 percent of individuals traveling with For The Love of Travel jet -setting solo, each trip is packed with opportunities to meet fellow Millennial and Gen Z travel enthusiasts. For example, within your small “crew” of up to 14 people, make new friends doing snow sports and unwinding in saunas in Lapland or devouring tacos and sipping mezcal in Mexico City. Trips range from four to nine days, including weekends in Colorado’s Rocky Mountain wilderness or an extended weekend in Costa Rica where you’ll hike through rainforests, relax in hammocks, and hike, bike, or surf.

According to company feedback, the average FTLOT traveler is 30 years old and interested in meeting new people while traveling . The company bills itself as a mid-range travel company, where “​​we might stay in a more basic hotel for a couple of nights so we can include a Michelin-worthy meal and a private catamaran ride.” 

In 2022, FTLOT plans to offer at least 10 new itineraries including to Belize, Turkey, and Spain’s Basque Country. And for those with the flexibility, the company launched Sojrn in 2021 featuring month-long, themed stays in destinations like Cape Town—focused on biodiversity—and a fashion-oriented stay in Paris.

FTLOT requires an initial deposit and allows installment payments if not paid in full.

Best for 50+ : Overseas Adventure Travel Rates

Courtesy Flash Pack

Overseas Adventure Travel is primarily aimed at American travelers aged 50 and over. It offers guided itineraries to worldwide destinations, including Africa, Antarctica, Asia, and the South Pacific, with trips ranked by activity level and accompanied by a list of physical requirements to help select an itinerary that is best suited for you. For example, their Japan and South Korea itinerary advise that participants be able to carry their own luggage as the selected hotels do not have porter service.

Some of Overseas Adventure Travel’s most popular trips include 17 days of wending the Adriatic from Croatia to Bosnia and Herzegovina (think a walking tour in Dubrovnik, sampling traditional Bosnian food in Sarajevo, and exploring the countryside near Zagreb). On another popular trip, you spend 15 days traveling through Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, ending in Helsinki, Finland. All trips offer pre-and post-itinerary extensions, and either waive the single supplement entirely or offer a discount on a private room.

The company offers a free Roommate Matching Program which helps you find a like-minded, same-sex roommate. If they can’t find a match, your single supplement is deducted. Small group sizes typically average 13 travelers.

Overseas Adventure Travel won the Solo Travel Award for Best Tour in 2017 and 2018, thanks in large part to its policy of offering a limited number of single spaces for each itinerary.

Best Female : Wild Women Expeditions

Courtesy of Overseas Adventure Travel

It began as an all-women, Canada-based canoe tripping company in 1991, and Wild Women Expeditions is perfect for boundary-pushing women who want to travel independently and enjoy the safety and support of an organized tour. The company also prioritizes hiring female tour leaders and on-the-ground guides. It offers outdoor adventures for women of all ages and identities and with a range of physical abilities (“whether your greatest skill is tracking a storm or talking up a storm, summiting mountains or summoning courage, keeping your kayak in line or coloring outside the lines,” as the company describes).

The company travels to 31 destinations around the world like Egypt, Tanzania, and the Azores islands. Itineraries are typically adventure-based and are filtered on their website by activity, with options ranging from sailing to cycling and horse riding. Imagine yourself sea kayaking and snorkeling in the Galapagos or scaling glaciers in Alaska. 

Most guests are solo travelers and there’s no single supplement to worry about as accommodation is typically in a shared room or cabin. Though if privacy is a priority, you can usually snag your own room for a nominal extra fee. Group sizes are kept small and social with between six and 14 women, depending on the itinerary you choose. The average group size is eight. 

Wild Women Expeditions also takes care to curate trips that avoid or minimize the disturbance of wildlife; supports environmental education and advocacy projects; and partners with social justice and women’s rights organizations.

Best for Solo Parent Travel : Intrepid Travel

Courtesy of Wild Women Expeditions

Intrepid ’s family-themed holidays welcome adults traveling with children, including solo parents looking to travel with their kids without the stress of planning and coordinating a trip. Since each family’s travel needs and preferences are different, every itinerary includes an “essential trip information” section where Intrepid outlines whether the trip would be a good fit for you and your kids, as well as a physical rating from least to more strenuous activities. 

For example, an itinerary through part of the Amazon Jungle in Peru advises the jungle can be very hot and humid, and that the weather can be unpredictable in the Andes. On the other hand, an 11-day trip to Borneo island in Southeast Asia lists a minimum age of 5 and outlines a range of accommodations from hotels to guesthouses and jungle camps; on a few occasions, travel times between destinations range between four to five hours. Trips to Costa Rica, Tanzania, China, and Morocco are also listed.

Individuals under 17 years typically receive a 10 percent discount, and the company requires that adults have at least one child under 18 years traveling with them. As part of Intrepid’s commitment to responsible travel, itineraries support initiatives surrounding sustainability and conservation, climate education, and preservation of Indigenous culture.

21 Best Solo Travel Vacations for Singles in their 30s

Sharing is caring!

Alright, my single friends in your 30s! I only have 2 months left in my 30s to write this 🙂 So consider this your elder’s wise, wise words. I began solo traveling in 2014. I took my first solo international trip in 2018, and I have loved every single solo road trip and solo trip I’ve taken! So let’s get into it.

Disclosure: Some of the links on this page are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase. 

What’s your Travel Style?

First things first (I’m a realist), you have to decide if your vacation is for leisure. Or is it for sightseeing? Or do you want a good old-fashioned combo platter? I personally like the combo platter – I like to go places where I can read a book all day in a hammock but also go see their best sights. I talk more in-depth about how I plan (or unplan) a trip in this podcast episode ! But deciding on what your travel style will be for your next vacation is a good thing. That way you have made sure that you have the best singles vacation you can imagine!

Now, are we driving from where you are? Flying in a plane? What time of year is it? Don’t count out a singles cruise.

Check the best destinations for day trips – sometimes it’s very helpful to have a bus drive you to the Grand Canyon instead of having to do it yourself!  I love a wine tour and want someone else to drive – it also means I get a little bit of people’s time on the tour and it’s only a day so I’m not locked into their itinerary.

Here are the Eleven Best Places for Singles in their 30s to visit in the US:

• The Grand Canyon is a top spot for any intrepid traveler looking for a solo adventure and a trip of a lifetime. Take an inclusive package and be accompanied by like-minded solo travelers and local guides who will take care of the heavy lifting, so you can focus on the stunning views and finding the perfect travel partner.
• Yellowstone National Park is a must-visit for nature lovers and bookworms alike, with its stunning scenery and opportunities for solo departures. Wild Women Expeditions is one of the best companies for female travelers looking for a love affair with the great outdoors and a good book.
• The Pacific Coast Highway is the perfect way to explore California’s best vacation spots, with great food and the opportunity to meet like-minded travelers. For those seeking a trip of a lifetime, consider taking a tour with one of the best travel companies that offer solo departures and small group tours.
• Route 66 is a classic road trip destination and a top spot for singles looking for a good trip and new things to explore. Book with a travel buddy or join a group tour for the best experience. Grab a free audiobook before you go.
• The Great Smoky Mountains offer a great vacation for year-olds and are one of the best cities to explore for nature lovers. Take a solo adventure or join a tour with like-minded solo travelers and discover the region’s rich history and culture. The Rocky Mountains are a top spot for adventurous travelers looking for a perfect holiday with plenty of opportunities for hiking and skiing. Join a tour with one of the best travel companies for solo departures and meet other like-minded travelers.
• The Florida Keys are a great vacation spot for those seeking inclusive packages and a chance to relax and unwind. Join a tour with a travel partner or go solo and meet other like-minded solo travelers.
• The New England states are a good trip for those seeking a type of trip that combines fall foliage, charming small towns, and fresh seafood. Join a tour with like-minded solo travelers and discover the region’s unique culture and history.
• The Southwest is a top spot for adventurous travelers looking for heavy lifting and a chance to explore the region’s stunning desert landscapes and national parks. Join a tour with one of the best companies for solo departures and discover the best cities and local guides. If you haven’t looked at the mountain town of Taos – make sure you do.
• The Chesapeake Bay is a great vacation spot for those seeking an inclusive package and a chance to explore charming small towns and beautiful beaches. Join a tour with like-minded solo travelers and discover the region’s rich history and seafood.
• Austin, Texas: Austin is known for its lively music scene, great food, and outdoor activities. It’s a city that celebrates creativity and individuality, with a diverse range of neighborhoods, such as South Congress and East Austin. There are plenty of festivals throughout the year, including South by Southwest (SXSW) and Austin City Limits (ACL) music festival
• Portland, Oregon: Portland is a laid-back city that’s known for its craft beer, coffee, and food scene. It’s also surrounded by natural beauty, with the Columbia River Gorge and Mount Hood just a short drive away. The city has a thriving arts and music scene, with plenty of quirky shops and galleries to explore. There are also plenty of outdoor activities, such as hiking and biking.

Here are the Ten Best Solo Travelers in their 30s for International Destinations:

10 Tips on Solo Traveling

• Research your destination: Do your research before you go and learn about the local culture, customs, and language. Knowing what to expect can make your solo travel experience smoother and more enjoyable.
• Stay in hostels or Airbnb rentals: Hostels and Airbnb rentals are great options for solo travelers, as they offer the chance to meet other travelers and locals. Hostels often have common areas where you can socialize and meet like-minded people.
• Use public transportation: Public transportation is a great way to get around and explore your destination. It’s often cheaper than taking taxis or renting a car, and it gives you the chance to see more of the local culture.
• Meet other travelers: Don’t be afraid to strike up a conversation with other travelers you meet along the way. You may find that you have a lot in common and can explore together.
• Stay connected with family and friends: Letting your loved ones know your itinerary and checking in with them regularly can give you peace of mind while traveling solo. You can also share your experiences with them and get their advice on what to see and do.
• Be open to new experiences: Solo travel is all about stepping out of your comfort zone and trying new things. Be open to new experiences, whether it’s trying new food, taking a different route, or striking up a conversation with a stranger.
• Join a tour group: Joining a tour group is a great way to meet other solo travelers and explore your destination with a knowledgeable guide. Look for small group tours that cater to solo travelers or those in their 30s.
• Embrace solo time: While it’s great to meet new people and explore with others, don’t forget to take some time for yourself. Use your solo time to reflect, recharge, and explore at your own pace.
• Stay safe: Safety should always be a top priority when traveling solo. Research your destination beforehand and take precautions such as avoiding unlit areas at night, not carrying too much cash, and being aware of your surroundings.
• Have fun: Solo travel is a great opportunity to explore, learn, and have fun. Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try new things.

25 Fantastic Singles Travel Groups You’ll Love

By: Author Amanda OBrien

Posted on Last updated: 04/04/2024

A few years ago there were hardly any single travel groups that offered options for holidays for one – let alone companies who entirely focused on solo departures and looked at things like no single supplements etc and solo travel groups.

Thank goodness for the growth in singles travelling as now there is a good economic reason for companies to look at developing great offers for those looking for holidays for one.

There are now singles travel groups over 30s, single travel for over 50, singles travel getaways, luxury solo travel tours and singles travel getaways galore.

I will let you know which of these tour companies I have traveled with and which I haven’t – if you then go and do a tour on one of the ones I haven’t been on please do let me know what they are like – and I would love you to write a guest post if you’re up for it.

There are so many options for solo traveling today – here are some great trips for single travelers.

BEST SOLO TOUR OPERATOR: Short on time? You can’t go wrong with Explore which has a section dedicated to solo travel on their website.

30 Singles Travel Groups

Top 3 companies for organised solo travel vacations.

#1 TOP PICK

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Explore ✔️ Dedicated Solo Tours ✔️ Small Group Tours ✔️ No single supplement

G Adventures ✔️ No single supplement ✔️ Free time in itineraries ✔️ Evening Group Meals

Encounters Travel ✔️ Private & Small Group Focus ✔️ 20 Years Experience ✔️ Range of Tours

1. Group Tours for Solo Travellers

Explore is perhaps one of the best singles travel groups. It is also the company I have been a traveling single with the most so the best place to start! Explore has been running since 1981 so they have loads of experience with running tours.

Explore covers over 100 countries and has a maximum group size of 11 and there is no single supplement if you take a shared room. There is an option to have your own room but that does cost extra. They prioritize working with locals and do a great job finding expert guides.

Around 60% of people who go on Explore trips are traveling on their own and they break down solo vacations into age groups on their website which is really helpful.

My second recommendation for solo travel vacations is G Adventures . They have a wide range of small-group trips designed for the solo traveler. There is no single supplement as long as you are willing to share a room with someone of the same sex. G Adventures also offers single rooms at reasonable prices if that is your preference.

The itineraries for G Adventures trips tend to have more free time than some of the other tour companies in this article. This is great if you are someone that likes to have some time to yourself to relax or explore further but want the support and structure of an organised group trip.

One of the most difficult parts of solo travel can be dinner. Eating on your own can feel lonely and isolating. The tour leader organizes group meals most nights, so if you want company you will almost be able to find it.

If you are traveling alone one of the best ways not to feel like it is to join a group doing some challenge – when I summited Kilimanjaro on an organized solo tour. we were a team from almost the word go. More than half of the trip was traveling solo – some were single, some had partners who didn’t want to go, some like me had someone pull out last minute etc.

It didn’t matter who you had arrived with – what mattered was everyone wanted someone to talk to about whether or not to take Diamox, tips on altitude, share lollies, etc etc.

I have done two travel solo tours with friends – North India and cycling Southern Iceland . Again an activity-based trip can be a great travel for singles option – particularly as you tend to be exhausted every night and eat and sleep.

Want to join me on a small group female trip to Africa? I am heading to Kenya in October on an 8 night safari with Walking Wild Africa and would love you to join me. It’s a unique mix of game drives, walking safari and some chill time. Make sure you tell Kim that you want to go on the tour with The Boutique Adventurer so she gets the right one!

⇒ Still not sure about group travel for singles? Check out this great post on The Benefits of Solo Trave l .

2. Solo Female Travelers Club

Solo Female Travelers Club is a community of more than 90,000, run by the fantastic travel bloggers Meg and Mar. The heart of the community is their Facebook group, which has some great information and is the perfect way to meet other females interested in traveling solo.

Meg and Mar also run female-only small group tours that range from luxury retreats to adventurous expeditions in some awesome locations.

3. Luxury Single Traveller Vacations

One company I have been particularly keen to try but it just hasn’t worked out on timings and destinations is Flash Pack . I love the tone and feel of their website – it is very much about boutique adventures.

They focus on people in their 30s and 40s and seem to have some great travel groups for solo travelers.

Australian based Travelling Divas also promises boutique hotels and customized trips. I have also been very keen to try Cox and Kings solo holidays .

Cox and Kings have a great reputation as a high-end travel specialist so I am highly confident that the thread count on their sheets will be up to my standards based on how fantastic their hotels look.

These trips though will, of course, be at a premium to some of the other options I have mentioned. But their group travel singles options look terrific.

4. Solo Travel Companies that are specifically for traveling alone

I would highly recommend that you think beyond the country you live in when it comes to solo travel groups. For example, quite a few travel companies based in Australia now run specific holidays for solo travel groups.

Encounter Travels is all about solo travel but not traveling alone as they say.

They also age match so if you are a 35-year-old solo traveler you won’t be in a group of people in their 70s. They do have quite a few trips to various parts of Australia but also a few trips to other places around the world.

Another solo travel company based in Australia is Twos a Crowd . Some UK based companies that specialize in solo travel groups are:

⇒ www.solosholidays.co.uk

⇒ www.justyou.co.uk

⇒ www.friendshiptravel.co.uk

5. Companies that specialise in Adventure

For a more adventurous bent check out    8th-day adventures . They are a London based club that has lots of sporting events and other fun things that are a mix of social and activity.

They also run some group holidays which could be good for the more adventurous solo traveler eg Everest base camp

An interesting-sounding organization is Archaeo Adventures. This female-focused travel company looks at adventures in countries like Morocco and Jordan in small groups. They are about boutique hotels, working with locals, and off-the-beaten-track experiences.

Female-focused hosted adventure trips are also the focus of Living Big which is US-based. Another company specializing in solo travel groups USA is Overseas Adventure Travel , which offers some fantastic-sounding trips for adventurous solo travelers.

Heading to Australia there are Adventurous Women and Another World Adventures.  Another World Adventures curates adventures from different providers. It is a very comprehensive site with loads of options that sound great.

6. Cruises for Solo Travelers

Even cruise ships have gotten on board with the growth in solo travel. Norwegian Cruise Line is the brand most commonly mentioned for having actually built single cabins and apparently there is a dedicated area for solo travelers.

They have several cruise brands – Norwegian Epic, Breakaway, Getaway, and Escape. But ensure you look closely as these can be more family-focused at certain times of the year – check out my top tip 2 below.

Encounter Travel also has loads of information on solo cruise options. They even have a “cabin mates wanted” section where you can potentially find another same-sex solo traveler with whom you can share a cabin.

7. Charity Based Solo Travel Companies

There are a few organisations that run group tours that have some activity/challenge that supports a charity. These can be a great way to find others to travel with and the shared sense of purpose can surely add to the group bond.

Have a look at Global Adventure Challenges and Charity Challenge.

8. Passion-based Solo Travel Tours

An organized trip around an activity you love that is also about solo travel is a fantastic formula to follow. Even if you don’t really bond with anyone on the trip if you have learned more about Italian cooking or photographing sea life it is a well-spent holiday.

Quite a few organizations I have listed above offer planned trips around passions and hobbies. Here are a few others I’ve found:

Frui has some fantastic looking passion-based trips – from photography (a great one for solo travel) to painting to food in some lovely locations. I did a day class with them once in London in photography and they were great.

The Red Sea in Egypt appears to be a very popular solo travel spot – most likely driven by the amount of activity that can be done in the water. There are also numerous diving and/or underwater photography courses in the area.

Skyros is a very famous spot in Greece for activity/passion-based trips. They used to have a bit of a self-help bent but now they are very focused on passions like painting, singing, yoga, and learning.

They have two locations in Greece and one on the Isle of Wight for taster weekends. According to their site, 70% of their travelers are between 40 and 60, and most travel solo. This is a great option if you’re looking for singles travel groups over 40.

9. Something Different for Single Travel Groups

In August 2017, I spent a month living life Unsettled in Medellin Colombia, and loved it. Unsettled is a fantastic concept. Essentially it aims to give people the experience of living in a city for a month rather than being a tourist.

It does this because it has about 25-30 people sign up, organizes apartments and coworking space and sets up activities that you can participate in as much or as little as you like.

The other people on the trip are your community, the hosts act as your connection to local life and having an apartment and workspace means it feels more like living.

They choose brilliant locations from Buenos Aires to Cape Town to Barcelona . I highly recommend checking them out.

If you decide to live life Unsettled then use the code “FRIENDSOFUNSETTLED”  and tell them that the Boutique Adventurer sent you for a discount of USD$150 .

Solo Travel Tips

1. mix up your plans.

A great way to travel solo is to mix things up. If you were heading to say Australia you could go and stay in a spa for a few days (a great way to meet people), head to say Sydney on your own and stay at a boutique hotel and use Tinder or join a meetup group.

You could then join an organized tour with someone like Explore, travel with them for a while, and then have some time solo again. Committing to a lengthy organized tour can be a bit much – plus it is hard to find one that covers everything that you want.

I find a mix is optimal – if you feel lonely it is only a few days till you have company, if you’re dying to be on your own again it’s only a few days till that happens. And you may very well meet others traveling alone on your organized section who are keen to have further adventures after the tour.

I have many friends I have met when traveling solo who become travel buddies and loads of other friends of mine are the same.

2. Avoid School Holidays

September is a great time to travel solo. Be careful of all organized tours/cruises etc during any school holiday time, particularly over the summer, as you may end up surrounded by families.

However, school has returned in September, and there are often many deals for solo travelers.

3. Fill Up your Kindle

There is nothing like a good book to keep you company when traveling solo! I keep adding to my list – please email me with more suggestions! [email protected] .

I keep them all in my Amazon shop. And I have just launched a range of e-books aimed at solo travelers! I have an ebook on Solo Travel, my trip to Colombia with Unsettled and Everest Base Camp .

Frequently Asked Questions about Solo Travel

Are there travel companies just for single people.

Yes! There are several travel companies just for single people as well as companies like G Adventures that offer trips designed for single travelers.

What is the best holiday destination for singles?

In my opinion, rather than focusing on a particular destination singles should look at holidays with a focus or goal like a cycling trip or a trek. This is most likely to bring together like-minded people and provide a common purpose.

Is solo travel lonely?

It can be. The best way to avoid feeling lonely when traveling solo is to join an organised tour. Or if you are on your own look at staying in high-end hostels for some comfort and the chance to meet others. And a good book can transport you from any difficult situation! And don’t forget to check out things like the safest cities in the US to make sure you can relax during your trip.

How do I meet other female solo travelers?

There are several facebook groups for female solo travelers such as Solo Female Travelers (who also organise group trips for solo female travelers). I have also found that going to a spa/yoga retreat can be a good way to meet other female solo travelers.

Great ideas. I have done a lot of solo tour travel as I like the security of a tour when I am on my own. Some other companies:

Contiki is great for the 18-35s, especially when you haven't travelled much before.

My favourite company is G Adventures, no single supplement, but you can pay for your own room and a huge range of tours world wide. They are Canadian based. All ages, very budget and affordable.

Another one very similar to G Adventures but Australian based is Intrepid tours. World wide, budget, no single supplement but also has own room option if you don't want to share.

I have made life long friends on these tours when I was travelling solo. Now we meet up all over the world and do tours together!

Solo Vacations Are the Best Way to Treat Yourself

• May 20, 2024

Have you ever considered vacationing alone? For some people, the mere thought of solo vacations makes them break out into a cold sweat. However, sometimes the best travel companion you can ever have is yourself. There are many reasons why you may be considering taking off across country or even overseas all by yourself, and you’re not alone.

The solo vacation industry has been growing astronomically over the past few years, and when you join a group, you aren’t actually by yourself. Instead, you get the benefits of solo travel as well as the advantages of a group adventure.

Most people who travel alone are treating themselves, either for a new job, a graduation, recovery from an illness, or just because they enjoy their own company. Here are some reasons why striking off on your own can be enjoyable and liberating.

You Can Do Exactly What You Want

Often, when you travel with a companion, compromises are made. You have to agree on travel dates, on where to go, where to stay, and what to eat. What do you do when you’re on the vacation of a lifetime and your companion doesn’t want to go see that museum or eat at that restaurant that’s at the very top of your list? Do you acquiesce and feel bitter? Do you insist and cause hard feelings? When you travel on your own, you can craft your itinerary exactly the way you want it.

Traveling Alone Can Help You Gain Confidence

Few things are more frightening than being in a strange new place all alone. However, when you take solo vacations, you may find that you’re far braver than you thought you were. It can be extremely liberating to test your limits and push yourself to do things you wouldn’t normally do. Strike up a conversation with that bartender or try out your high school French. You might just surprise yourself.

Solo Vacations Let You Get to Know Yourself Better

In today’s digital world, people are constantly surrounded by people and noise. Cell phones are always on, and most people rarely have the time or energy to just be alone with our own thoughts. Traveling alone can give you an opportunity to get to know yourself all over again. Read a book. Watch a sunset. Drink coffee in a Paris street café. Solo vacations give you time to do those quiet things that make you happy.

Traveling Alone Can Make It Easier to Stay Within Your Budget

Finances are a sensitive subject. It’s difficult when you’re traveling with someone who is in an entirely different tax bracket than you are. They may want to do something extravagant that you simply can’t afford, or your traveling companion might not be able to participate in something you want to do. Again, you’ll be forced to compromise. Traveling by yourself allows you to set your budget and stick to it.

If you have a special event coming up or want to celebrate a milestone, you might want to consider the benefits of solo vacations. Broaden your worldview, experience something new, feed your soul. At Adventures for Solo Travelers, we take solos on group tours to amazing spots all over the world. To learn more,  contact us  today.

Solo Travel In Your 30s – here’s 5 alternatives to staying home

by Steven Dillon | Apr 26, 2019

This post was written by Steve Dillon, founder of   Other Way Round , a group travel company specialising in adventure trips for 25-45 year olds. He’s passionate about encouraging fellow 30 somethings to give solo travel a try, and he shares 5 ways to go about it.

(or “vacations” for my North American friends).

If you’re anything like most people it’s what gets you through the day-to-day grind.

Looking forward to that next trip – the opportunity to relax, to disconnect, to experience something completely different.

It doesn’t get much better.

“Where are you going this year”?

If you would have asked me that when I was in my 20s I would have reeled off a list of upcoming trips with friends.

There was always something going on and the main challenge was finding the cash to get involved.

But the first time it happened to me I had just turned 30…

I had resigned from my job and had managed to wangle a 1 week break before starting my next role.

I was in need of a break.

Desperate actually .

And I knew I would be useless at my next company without recharging my batteries first.

The problem – I couldn’t find anyone to go with.

At such short notice neither my girlfriend or friends could get the time from work and I was faced with the daunting prospect:

GO ALONE, OR DON’T GO AT ALL.

Solo Travel in My 30s

As I’ve progressed through my 30s I’ve realised that this was just the start of things to come.

People get married, have kids, get saddled with huge mortgages.

It becomes near impossible to align schedules and finances with those closest friends.

If this sounds all too familiar, the good news is that you are not alone.

It is way more common than you think and many of us are facing the same challenge.

So what do you do?

You could decide to stay home and miss out (and sadly many people do).

But honestly, in this day and age it’s SO unnecessary.

“Solo Travel” is absolutely booming, especially for people in their 30s, and there are endless possibilities out there.

In this post I’m going to share with you 5 alternatives to staying home if you find yourself in a similar situation.

(See also:   Group Holidays for Solos Over 30 )

1. Hardcore Solo Travel

By this I mean really go all in and fully embrace the solo aspect of “solo travel”.

Plan out your own trip in full, based entirely on what YOU want to do.

There are SO MANY resources available online to help.

(some good places to start are Nomadic Matt , Adventurous Kate , Lonely Planet , Conde Nast Traveler but really if you just type your destination into Google you’ll find there’s a ridiculous wealth of information available). 

Go where you want, when you want.

Don’t worry about pleasing anyone else.

Enjoy the time alone to think, get perspective on life, and renew your sense of purpose (sounds a bit cheesy I know, but it often happens).

Embrace the flexibility and freedom that comes with this option and after a while you may just wonder why you’ve never done it before.

It’s definitely character building stuff and you will likely emerge from such a trip with a new found level of resilience and independence which you can carry forth on into your daily life.

2. The Hybrid Approach to Travelling Alone

This combines the best of both worlds.

Again, plan your trip independently – book your own flights, accommodation, plan a rough itinerary etc… but put yourself in places where you are likely to meet other people along the way.

You could stay at a hostel where there’s likely to be a bunch of other travellers in their 30s sharing a similar mindset.

You could also book yourself onto day tours so you still get to go visit places with other people, but leave plenty of ‘alone time’ with the flexibility to venture off and do your own thing.

Or you could even hook yourself up with a local and really get to know the place you’re visiting on a deeper level.

Platforms like Couchsurfing and Airbnb Experiences are great for connecting you with such locals for a more ‘authentic experience’.

The great thing with this approach is that you don’t have to plan too much in advance.

Most Hostels / Hotels / Airbnbs will have relationships with the local tour operators and you can typically just land, see what’s available and book something at the last minute.

3. Join an Online Travel Group 

The internet is full of online communities (or travel groups) specifically catering to people in this very position – single people looking to travel solo.

They typically provide an abundance of useful information, in-depth resources and helpful tips for those thinking to travel alone.

And better still, some even organise trips which members can join.

Some great examples of such groups are:-

• Solo Travel Society
• Girls Gone International
• Travelettes
• Girls Love Travel

(these groups all also have huge social media followings)

Go search for something in your particular area of interest and you’re bound to find something that resonates with you.

(there are many which will specialise in bringing together singles in their 30s)

4. Get Social

This is a bit more of a long game with regard to solo travel but in my opinion it’s one of the absolute best things you can do.

Here it is…

JOIN A SOCIAL CLUB IN YOUR LOCAL COMMUNITY

If you’re struggling to find friends to go on holiday with then chances are you’re also facing a similar challenge in your day-to-day life (and we all need someone to go grab a beer with on the weekend).

And yet the perfect solution is available to most of us within our local communities which typically have ‘social clubs’ for almost every interest out there.

For example, in recent years I’ve been a member of the following clubs:-

• RBS Football (London – football team)
• One Element (London – outdoor fitness club)
• Y Tri (Washington DC – triathlon club)
• La Ruta Outdoor (Medellin – hiking club)

(yeah, I’ve gotten around a little)!

And without exception, in each of these communities I have met great friends, found people to hang out with on weekends and – most relevant to this blog – ended up going on HOLIDAY with other solo travellers from the group.

Sometimes it was part of an organised group trip (most social clubs do them) and other times just directly with friends I have met through these clubs.

And although these particular groups lean more towards the active side, you can bet there’s a group somewhere that covers you own personal area of interest whether that be music, dance, languages or whatever.

Go check out Meetup which is a great resource for finding such groups.

5. Go With a Tour Group

Last but not least is the option to join a tour group.

Now, I know that some people have the image of tour groups being a bit stuffy or rigid but these days there are definitely some WAY more modern versions out there.

(in fact check out this blog: Debunking 9 Myths About Small Group Tours )

Going back to the story I talked about in the intro – where none of my friends were available to holiday with me – I ended up ‘traveling solo’ for a week of ‘Spanish and Surf’ in Fuerteventura.

It was a fantastic trip, I met a bunch of fun people, and I got that much needed time to disconnect.

Fast forward a couple of years and I joined another tour group called Medsailors for a week of ‘Sun and Sailing’ in Croatia (it was so good I went with them again to Greece the following year)!

Inspired so much by these awesome trips I then went on to create my very own tour company – Other Way Round – specialising in group tours for 30 and 40 somethings solo travellers.

These days there are tour groups for absolutely everything .

Whether you’re into yoga , skiing , meditation, dancing, hiking, biking, literature, museums, adventure or just want to party for two weeks – there’s an option out there for you.

Just type your interest and desired destination into Google and you’ll be spoilt with a bucket load of choices.

The “Right Way” to Do Travelling Solo in Your 30s

SPOILER ALERT – there is no “right way” to do solo travel in your 30s.

There is no one size fits all.

For some people the thought of Option 1 (Hardcore Solo Travel) will fill them with dread while for others it will sound like paradise.

At the other end of the scale I know people who could think of nothing worse than going on a 2 week group tour with a bunch of “strangers” while for others it’s what they enjoy most.

It all comes down to what you’re more comfortable with as an individual and what better suits your personality.

I tend to lean more towards Option 4 (Social Clubs) and Option 5 (Tour groups).

I like meeting new people and sharing experiences together.

It always takes me a bit of time to get to know new people so I prefer spending a longer period with the same group rather than meeting new people every day.

I like the bond it creates within the group and usually find that on such trips the banter is the best part.

But that’s just me and everyone is different.

The most important takeaway here is that if you’re a solo traveller in your 30s there’s definitely an option out there for you. There’s no need to miss out.

With that in mind…

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE – Don’t Miss Out !

If I can get only one thin g across in this blog it is to tell you not to hold yourself back.

I’m extremely passionate about this subject because I see so many single travellers in their 30s missing out because they don’t take that initial first step .

Yes, it can be tricky.

Often awkward.

Eating at a restaurant alone.

Trying to make friends in a hostel when it feels like everyone else is travelling together.

Meeting up with a new tour group or social group for the first time when you don’t know anyone.

But if you push yourself through those initial moments of pain (torture for some I know) then you will open yourself up to a whole new world of possibilities.

Go on, give it a try!

What our customers say

We started the trip off as friendly strangers. But by the time the adventure was over, we felt like a family.

My perception of group travel before wasn't great – you have stereotypes. But Flash Pack changed it. It’s unique.

There was something so special about travelling with a group of people with the same mindset and willingness to adventure.

Singles holidays for over 30’s

Now it would be very easy for us to just give you a list of the best singles holidays for over 30’s but how would you know they really are the best for your age group?

There’s no doubt solo travel is on the up – the number of single travellers from the UK has increased by 25% over the last five years, according to a report by Euromonitor International . And with a massive 83% of you in your 30’s interested in pursuing a holiday abroad rather than the UK, there’s no better time to travel with like-minded people.

To help you pick your ideal holiday, we’ve gathered some recent reviews from our returning solo travellers in their 30’s so that you can see what they said about their holiday experience, meaning you can be sure you’re picking the BEST holiday for your needs.

So let’s delve into the world of solo travel in your 30’s…

Top 3 reasons to travel solo

Why solo doesn’t mean single.

• Top solo holidays recommended by travellers in their 30’s

Now let’s be clear – you don’t need to justify why you would want to join a singles holiday . The main reason I have travelled solo in the past is simply just to meet more people. The more people you meet from different backgrounds, cultures and from different age groups, the more enriching your travelling becomes.

But according to Mintel’s Solo Holidays – UK report (October 2018), these are the most popular reasons why people tend to go it alone…

• “To have more freedom to do what I want to do.”
• “I would like to have more time for myself.”
• “I didn’t have anyone to go with.”

OK, before we get deeper here, we need to make sure we are both on the same page. Are you ready?

Just because you travel solo does not necessarily mean you are single (and therefore looking to mingle…). Nope, not at all.

In fact, these ‘singles holidays’ we talk about are actually set up so people like you can travel solo but not alone – joining other like-minded travellers.

Some may be on their own, some could be with a friend or even partner but you’ll all share the same goal. To travel and share new incredible experiences.

But wait! On the other hand, what Mintel’s report found was that amazingly 1 in 3 people who travelled solo in 2018 were actually in a relationship.

So there you go, solo really doesn’t mean single.

Top solo holidays for over 30’s

So let’s get stuck into it. Here are our best singles holidays for over 30’s, reviewed by people like you, for you.

Surf and yoga holiday in Morocco

Located in the laid-back surfing village of Tamraght, near Agadir on Morocco’s Atlantic coast, is this friendly surf camp run by local surfer Abdellah and his team.

There are plenty of opportunities to meet new people outside the surf and yoga lessons. You’ll enjoy daily group meals on the roof terrace, while you admire the amazing coastal views. Plus, the instructors even organise a weekly night out to show you around the town and the best places to hang out after a day in the waves. As far as an active holiday for singles  goes, this is one of the best out there.

First-time solo traveller Holly, aged 32, said:

“I had a fantastic and memorable time in Morocco – all thanks to Abdellah and his wonderful team. Everything was organised bespoke to me – everyone just went above and beyond each day to ensure I had the best holiday ever. Do go with the yoga too – Danai is fantastic!”

Fuelling up at breakfast for a day in the waves

Yoga retreat in Costa Rica

Is there anywhere more perfect than Costa Rica to detach yourself from the daily grind for some much needed R&R? If that’s just what you need, this singles wellness and yoga retreat in Montezuma is just the ticket.

Wake up in your eco-friendly accommodation and take just a few steps to your morning yoga session on a wooden deck right on the beach. Unwind and re-energise for the day ahead to the sound of exotic birds and chattering monkeys, with the jungle and ocean as your backdrop.

The more active can spend the rest of the day horse riding or learning to surf. For the rest, grab a hammock, book a holistic treatment and immerse yourself in the moment.

Learn French in Nice

Located in the vibrant Liberation-Borriglione quartier of Nice, is this award-winning French language school. The area is known for its beautiful provincial style buildings, set among the lively village-like atmosphere and eclectic mix of people.

But don’t be deceived by the term ‘language school’. This language holiday for singles is far from any school environment you may know. Meet students from all over the world during your lessons, then relax in the private outdoor terrace area, complete with reclining deck chairs.

And let’s not forget the fact that in Nice you are never too far away from the beach. After your French lessons, grab your beach bag and head to the sandy city beach – take a dip in the Med or work on your tan.

Amy, aged 35 and travelling solo, said:

“Great course, exactly as described. Really good teachers and friendly staff at the school. I really enjoyed the experience and it’s something I would definitely do again!”

Practising the lingo with new friends

Read more about how you can learn French in Nice .

Explore Northern Vietnam

Get off the beaten track in Vietnam to discover the remote area of North Vietnam. Take in spectacular scenery, visit local markets, experience the mountains of Black H’mong of Dong Van, and much more.

This immersive tour is run by local guide, Nguyen Tuan Linh. After growing up in the remote countryside of Vietnam and studying in the city of Hanoi, he realised most tourists visited major hotspots and many were missing out on real authentic experiences in the country.

So if you’re all about sustainable travel, meeting the locals and up for swapping some travel tales, this could just be the trip for you.

Breathtaking views and experiences off the beaten track

Find our more about this tour of remote Northern Vietnam .

Fitness and wellbeing in Spain

If you like being active but want more action, let trainer Casper put you through your paces in the town of Zahora on Spain’s Costa de la Luz. This training ground is a world away from your average gym – believe us.

Nestled at the foot of a nature park and near to the white beaches and stunning cliffs, this amazing location gives you the opportunity to make the most of your outdoor gym during HIIT sessions, team games and even horse riding. Not forgetting the sea or swimming pool to cool off in.

Giacomo, aged 31, said:

“Great holiday, very well organised, perfect to challenge yourself and to try to go beyond your limits. Would definitely recommend.”

Warning: this is much better than your normal workouts

We’ll also give you a list of some of our favorite places to visit. So what are you waiting for? Start planning your next adventure today!

Trips For Singles Over 30 – Travel For Singles In Their 30s

10 best tour companies for people in their 30s, exodus travels.

This award winning travel company is based in the UK and has been in business for 45 years. They offer over 500 trips all around the world in a few different formats.

You can book a small guided trip, then there are self-guided holidays, and you also have the option of booking a private adventure for you and anyone else in the group you choose.

What makes Flash Pack great for solo travelers is that by the end of your trip you’ll forget you came alone.

They prioritize building relationships between the small group members going on the trip. The travel agents are careful to create a small group with like-minded people in their 30s and 40s so that they all get the most of the trip. It’s that kind of intentionality that made them responsible for creating 50,000 friendships in 2019. 

Flash Pack offers 23 different trips for the adventure seekers, singles looking to do some soul searching, and everyone in between. They are a little more on the pricier side, but with that comes better quality lodging among other perks.

Explore 

Explore gives the traveler many different options to create their perfect trip. Whether you are planning a trip with other singles travelers that you know, or are hoping to make some new friends in a guided small group trip, there is a trip for you.

The options don’t stop there though! You also get to pick the pace of your trip. If you want to pack as many sights and activities into your trip as you can, go for it! If you’d rather have a tour with lots of free time, you can book that too.

Another World Adventures 

Another World Adventures doesn’t describe themselves as a travel agency or tour operator, instead they describe their business as “the place to find a handpicked collection of unforgettable travel experiences that you won’t find anywhere else, and that you can book directly with the people who run them.”

They simply just want to make single travelers, and group travelers alike, aware of the incredible trips they have the opportunity to book.

There are many different trips that they feature on their website. You can find your next getaway by searching by location, activity, duration, or experiences you’re looking for on your new adventure.

Wild Women Expeditions

This company is different from other travel companies we have discussed. Wild Women Expeditions is an all-female travel company.

You can join an expedition as one of the single travelers, or even join the fun with a travel partner. You’ll find different age groups, cultures, life experiences, etc. on your group trip, but you all have at least one thing in common. That is your love for adventure.

Some of their unique group offerings include family trips, lower budget trips, and shorter breaks in the big, exciting cities around the world. They also offer small group tours among a few other options. Travelers can choose their perfect trip from over 40 countries.

Contiki offers social travel for people ages 18-35. This company is a great option for single travelers ready to have fun and meet new friends.

Their trips are hassle-free and experience oriented so you’ll have peace of mind throughout the planning process and through your trip. You’ll have over 350 trips to choose from, but no matter which one you choose, you’ll have the best time.  

G Adventures

G Adventures values both you, the traveler, and the communities around the destinations where they book trips. The small groups are kept small, about 10-12 people, so that you can really get to know and bond with your new friends.

Built into your itinerary you’ll find pockets of downtime so that you can do whatever you want. That could be more exploring or some recharge time, it’s all up to you. The local communities are also benefiting from these trips. G Adventures seeks out local accommodations, prioritizes community tourism, and even supports nonprofits that help the locals.

There are a variety of travel styles to choose from for your trip. You can go on a National Geographic tour, an age-specific trip, a wellness trip, and more. They even have cruise lines you can book so you can travel the sea.

Whether you’re trekking through the Sahara Desert or exploring the ancient city of Marrakech, you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience.

Costa Rica is a great place to go if you want more of an active holiday. With its diverse, and scenic terrains you’ll get to see everything from the rain forest to river valleys.You’ll get a real sense of adventure and culture as you explore Costa Rica. If that doesn’t sell you, check out all of the food you have in this area.

There is so much to do and see in Italy. Not only is there great food, the local culture is also amazing. Options are endless when it comes to where to go.

You could hang out at the Trevi Fountain in Rome, view the castles in Tuscany, hit the beaches in Sicily for a fun beach day, check out the history in Florence, and much more! Italy is great for both the solo traveler and a girls trip.

Get away from it all and soak up the sun, surf, and sand. Barbuda is the home of the iconic Pink Sand Beach.

The sand may not be pink, but you can still see the hue of pink from all of the shells that wash up on shore, according to hotels.com . You’re sure to find plenty of other beaches and attractions to enjoy on your vacation as well.

If you enjoy history, the theater, or mythology, Greece is a great way to see them all. There is so much that Greece has to offer, like the beautiful architecture in Santorini, the caves, trails, and museums throughout Greece, and much more. Greece is the perfect vacation destination for your thirties.

If you are on a budget but are still feeling wanderlust, Portugal is the place you want to go as a single woman in your thirties. Not only is Portugal inexpensive, compared to other overseas travel destinations, there is also so much you can experience while you are there.

Walking on the beautiful beaches, attending one of the many music festivals, exploring the amazing palaces and castles, and making new friends with the friendly locals are just some of the various activities that Portugal has to offer.

Two words, Northern Lights!! If you love picturesque vacations, Iceland should be at the top of your travel bucket list. Another must-see place in Iceland is the Blue Lagoon.

This hot pool is not only relaxing, but the water is actually great for your skin as well. A visit to Iceland is the perfect way to relax and rejuvenate your mind, body, and soul. It’s the perfect vacation for anyone that is single.

Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires has a little something for everyone. The city comes to life in the most colorful way from the architecture, to the dancing and entertainment. Then there are the gardens if you want to get away from the noise and frolic in the flowers. No matter if your vibe is more relaxed or ready to party. You are sure to have a great time.

Napa Valley

If you’re not quite ready to get out of your comfort zone and travel internationally, there are still some great spots in the United States to explore. One of those places is the Napa Valley. If you are a wine connoisseur, or just need a weekend away with your other single friends, this is the place for that. All the wine tasting your heart desires is just a plane, car, train, or bus ride away.

If you are craving a sense of adventure and want to have a good time, Hawaii is one of the best places to go.

Hawaii is a popular destination for vacations, and with good reason. The sun, sand, and surf are great, but it’s the history and culture that make it such a special place to be.

Las Vegas, also known as Sin City, is one of the best cities to plan a group travel vacation. If you love to party, this city should be at the top of your list.

With so many different things to get into, like gambling, clubbing, and local bars, you are sure to find a party in the city. Just make sure you are careful and stay in small groups of friends instead of wandering off alone.

If your idea of the best vacations include getting away from it all you’ll love visiting Ojai, California for the first time, and each time after that I’m sure.

Get off the beaten track, step away from social media, and embrace the quaint small town culture you’ll find here. Check out the local markets, or shop at the cute locally-owned businesses, or maybe go explore the trails. Whatever you get into, you’ll be refreshed by the end of your stay after taking that time to just be.

In Summary: Trips For Singles Over 30s

10 Best Vacation Spots for Singles in Their 30’s

Published on june 29, 2017 at 9:14 am by branislav srdanović in lists.

We have created a list of best vacation spots for singles in their 30’s to help people choose the adequate destination for their holiday. If you are single and older than 30, you probably have problems with vacation planning. Most travel agencies offer packages that are customized for the biggest consumer groups, like family vacations, or vacations for 20-year-old party-goers.

In most cases, typical vacation packages don’t offer the features single travelers in their thirties are after. When you are thirty, you want to go to a destination that offers spectacularly beautiful beaches, interesting sights, outdoor activities and relaxation spots.

When we think of the perfect holiday, we usually imagine blue sea, white sand, tall palms, and cocktails. This type of setting is excellent for the ultimate relaxation and a battery recharge after a long period of hard work. Still, even the destinations far away from the coast offer great relaxing opportunities. Mountain air or a healing spa will relieve you from work-related stress and make you feel ‘as good as new.’ On the other hand, if you choose a popular party destination that never sleeps, you will be tired and unproductive, when vacation ends, and you return to your work.

People usually work very hard in their 30’s, and that is why relaxation is one of the crucial factors for spending a great holiday. For more adventurous people this also includes various outdoor activities, like hiking, sailing, canoeing or paragliding. For others, a relaxing time at the beach, with a cocktail in one hand and a good book in the other, is everything they need. That is why we tried to pick destinations that offer both relaxing spots and outdoor opportunities.

Nightlife plays an important role in choosing destinations for single travelers. While in the daily hours, tourists usually want to relax and recharge, the hot nights on single holidays are usually reserved for eating out, dancing and meeting interesting people. Nobody likes to spend their holiday alone, which is why at some time you’ll start looking for a partner in crime. If you are only looking for a summer adventure, you should check our article on Best Vacation Spots to Get Laid.

One of the good things about being a thirty-something single is that money isn’t a problem anymore. At this age, most people already have steady jobs and are eligible for various vacation loans. You can easily reach exotic destinations and enjoy all the luxuries they have to offer. By using the internet for planning your holiday, you won’t need to rely on tourist agencies. Today, you can easily book hotel rooms and airplane tickets online, and plan your daily itinerary with the help of online guides and interactive travel forums.

while creating our list of best vacation spots for singles in their 30’s, we have used TripAdvisor, the world’s most interactive and engaging travel forum. Each year, this platform issues lists of the 25 Most Popular Destinations and 25 Best Beaches in the world. We have combined the rankings on these lists with the information from two travel articles, published on Travel Channel and Business Insider . These articles list the best destinations for travelers in their 30’s. Each destination from Business Insider’s and Travel Channel’s lists received 20 points, which were then combined with the number of points that are reversely proportional to the rankings on TripAdvisor. In the end, we have added the bonus points to some destinations for features and sights that can be interesting to people in their thirties, from the cultural point of view. Now, let’s see our list of best vacation spots for singles in their 30’s.

The 13 Best Solo Cruises for 2024 (No Supplement Fare)

W hether you're embarking on your first cruise alone or you've been on solo cruises before, single travelers will find more options than ever when it comes to cruising solo. Many cruise lines offer single staterooms with the same amenities as other cabins, at a price similar to what you'd pay with double occupancy fares. You'll also find special promotions where the single supplement fee is reduced or waived, making it more affordable to reserve a spacious stateroom or luxurious suite with even more amenities – including personalized butler service, an added perk of booking with many luxury lines .

If you're ready for a maritime adventure, an extended vacation or simply a quick getaway from home, these top cruise lines offer some of the best options for solo travelers on waterways around the world.

Lines with solo accommodations and waived fees

Norwegian cruise line.

Launched in 2010, Norwegian Epic was the first cruise ship in the industry to feature studio accommodations for solo travelers. Norwegian Cruise Line offers this category on nine of the 19 ships in its fleet, including the newest ship, Norwegian Viva. These cabins, at an average size of 100 square feet, are designed and priced with the solo traveler in mind. They have no single supplements – and studio rooms on board Norwegian Bliss even boast virtual windows.

Guests of the studios get access to the private Studio Lounge. In this exclusive space, you can socialize with other solo travelers and enjoy complimentary refreshments. There are also singles meetups throughout the voyage and plenty of fun-filled onboard activities to mingle with like-minded cruisers. Solo travelers can check out all the fun for singles on Norwegian Viva this winter on a cruise to the Caribbean , or in spring 2024 as the ship sets sail for the Mediterranean .

Book a Norwegian Cruise Line voyage on GoToSea, a service of U.S. News.

MSC Cruises

MSC Cruises offers interior and balcony solo cabins for single cruisers on its Meraviglia-class ships: the MSC Meraviglia, Bellissima, Grandiosa, Virtuosa and the newest vessel in the fleet, MSC Euribia. The second-newest ship, MSC World Europa, has 28 cabins – 10 Studio Interior and 18 Studio Ocean View staterooms – designed specifically for solo travelers. MSC World America, set to debut in 2025, will also feature the solo studio staterooms.

During voyages with MSC Cruises , single cruisers are invited to a complimentary, hosted cocktail party to mix and mingle with other solo travelers. The daily program is also an excellent source to discover additional activities, entertainment and opportunities to meet other cruisers. You'll have onboard special events like the themed 70s-inspired Flower Party and the White Party, where the ship is decked out in festive white decor and guests don their best white attire. In addition, there are various sports tournaments, or you can show off your culinary expertise during a MasterChef competition.

MSC's Caribbean and Bahamas cruises departing from Miami and New York City feature an overnight visit to Ocean Cay, the line's private island and marine reserve.

TSA breaks record for most individuals screened on a single day, readies for record-breaking Independence Day weekend travel volumes

WASHINGTON — As airline passengers prepare to take to the skies this Independence Day holiday, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is prepared for a sustained period of high passenger volumes. TSA expects to screen more than 32 million individuals from Thursday, June 27 through Monday, July 8, which is a 5.4% increase over 2023 Independence Day holiday travel volumes. On Sunday, June 23, TSA broke the record for most people screened on a single day, screening nearly 3 million (2.99 million) individuals . This summer’s record-breaking travel volumes reflect the role TSA and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have in securing the nation’s transportation systems, while ensuring freedom of movement for people and commerce, which is vital to our country’s economic well-being.

TSA anticipates the peak travel day will be Friday, June 28, when the agency expects to screen more than 3 million individuals. TSA is staffed to meet its wait time standards, which are 10 minutes and under in TSA PreCheck lanes and 30 minutes and under in standard screening lanes. Seven of the top 10 busiest travel days ever have occurred over the past month.

“We expect this summer to be our busiest ever and summer travel usually peaks over the Independence Day holiday,” said TSA Administrator David Pekoske. “Compared to last year, we have cut our attrition rates by almost half and increased our recruiting as a result of the TSA Compensation Plan that was funded in the budget passed by Congress and signed into law by President Biden. The traveling public is on the move, which is a sign of a healthy economy. We are ready, along with our airline and airport partners, to handle this boost in passenger volumes.”

Airline passengers should be aware that security screening technologies may vary by airport. Although TSA follows strict standardized screening protocols, it is important for passengers to arrive early and listen to the guidance provided by Transportation Security Officers (TSOs).

Below are some frequently asked questions that provide an overview of the TSA technologies and procedures individuals may encounter during screening process.

Do I need to show a boarding pass to the TSA officer?

All airline passengers must have their acceptable ID and boarding pass ready at the security checkpoint entrance.

Do I need to take off my shoes?

TSA requires individuals in standard screening lanes to remove their shoes during the screening process. However, individuals 12 and under or 75 and older are always permitted to keep their shoes on during the security screening process.

Passengers with TSA PreCheck may leave their shoes on unless they alarm during screening. Most airports have dedicated TSA PreCheck lanes during some peak hours. Some airports have blended lanes where passengers with TSA PreCheck are screened in standard lanes, but they will receive a card indicating they have TSA PreCheck to carry with them during screening, and will be screened as a TSA PreCheck passenger.

Can family members go through the TSA PreCheck lane with me?

Teenagers aged 13-17 may accompany TSA PreCheck enrolled parents or guardians through screening when traveling on the same reservation and when the TSA PreCheck indicator appears on the teen’s boarding pass. Children 12 and under may accompany an enrolled parent or guardian in the TSA PreCheck lanes without restriction. This benefit is another reason to join the nearly 20 million people who have enrolled in TSA PreCheck. For customer flexibility, there are three TSA PreCheck enrollment providers from which passengers may choose: Telos, CLEAR and IDEMIA. For more information on any of the enrollment provider options and TSA PreCheck, visit www.tsa.gov/precheck .

Other advice from TSA

With more than 430 federalized, commercial airports nationwide, 685 security checkpoints and 2,412 security screening lanes, it may be challenging to know what to expect at any airport. Here are some additional tips to help ensure an efficient screening experience:

• Pack smart. Always start packing with a bag that is empty to ensure there are no prohibited items present during security screening. Place electronics larger than a cell phone and travel size liquids at the top of your carry-on so they can be easily accessible if they must be removed. Remember that all liquids must be 3.4 ounces (100 ml) or less if they are in your carry-on bag.
• Arrive at the airport two hours before scheduled boarding time. Allow ample time to park,  navigate to the terminal, check luggage with the airline if needed and proceed through the checkpoint. Most flights board 30-45 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time.
• Review guidelines for traveling with children. Airlines may request proof of age documentation during check-in for children 12 and under traveling unaccompanied. Proof of age documentation must also be provided for children two and under planning to sit on an adult passenger’s lap. A birth certificate is an acceptable proof of age.
• Get assistance prior to traveling. Do you have a question about an item and whether or not it is allowed through security screening? Download the MyTSA app and use the “What Can I Bring?” feature to determine whether an item is allowed or prohibited in carry-on luggage. You may also snap a picture of an item and send it to @AskTSA on X (formerly Twitter) or Facebook Messenger for real-time assistance. Passengers may text their question to TSA by texting “Travel” to AskTSA (275-872). Passengers who need additional assistance through security screening may request a TSA  Passenger Support Specialist (PSS). A PSS is a TSO who has received specialized training, including how to effectively assist and communicate with individuals with disabilities, medical conditions or those who need additional screening assistance. Individuals should request passenger assistance at least 72 hours in advance by contacting  our TSA Cares passenger support line  at (855) 787-2227. Live assistance for both the TCC and TSA Cares is available weekdays, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. ET, or weekends and holidays from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET.
• Double-check your luggage tags. Many bags look alike, so passengers should tag every piece of checked luggage with their name and address. We also recommended they include additional addresses inside each bag in the event the outside tag falls off. When retrieving checked luggage at baggage claim, it is important that individuals check the tags to ensure they have picked up the correct bag.
• Do you carry a firearm? Prepare, pack and declare. Passengers may travel with a firearm , but it must be secured as the passenger’s checked baggage; packed unloaded; locked in a hard-sided case and declared to the airline when checking in at the airline ticket counter. Firearms are prohibited at security checkpoints, in the secure area of an airport and in the passenger cabin of an aircraft, even if a passenger has a concealed carry permit or is in a constitutional carry jurisdiction. TSA does not confiscate or seize firearms. If a passenger brings a firearm to the security checkpoint on their person or in their carry-on luggage, the TSO will contact local law enforcement to safely unload and take possession of the firearm. Law enforcement may also arrest or cite the passenger, depending on local law. TSA may impose a civil penalty up to almost $15,000, and for the first offense, passengers who bring a firearm to a security checkpoint will lose TSA PreCheck® eligibility for five years. Second violations will result in permanent disqualification from the program and additional civil penalties.
• Do you have TSA PreCheck? Make sure your Known Traveler Number (KTN) is in your airline reservation. TSA PreCheck passengers do not need to remove shoes, belts, 3-1-1 liquids, laptops, food items and light jackets at the TSA checkpoint. TSA’s wait time standards for TSA PreCheck lanes are under 10 minutes whereas as standard lanes are under 30 minutes. If you are not yet enrolled in TSA PreCheck, you may enroll via one of TSA’s authorized enrollment providers starting as low as $77.95 for a five-year membership. Most new enrollees receive their KTN within three to five days. Members may renew membership online up to six months prior to expiration for another five-year term starting as low as $68.95. Visit TSA PreCheck at www.tsa.gov/precheck for more information, and to begin your enrollment.
• Respect frontline aviation workers. Violence and unruly behavior in airports and onboard aircraft are not acceptable and will result in significant delays at security checkpoints. TSOs, along with all frontline airport and airline employees and local law enforcement, are working together to ensure safe and secure travel. Assaulting a TSA employee is a federal offense and will result in penalties and/or arrest.

Fly Across the Country for Less Than $30 With Frontier’s 30th Birthday Sale — but You Have to Book Soon

The deal ends June 27.

Daniel Brenner/Getty Images

Frontier Airlines is turning 30, and celebrating the milestone birthday with a big sale that has flights under $30 on 100 of the airline’s routes.

The sale must be booked by 11:59 p.m. ET on June 27 and is valid for $29 one-way flights through Nov. 13, according to the airline . The promotional fares are available for nonstop travel on Mondays through Thursdays and on Saturdays.

“We want to thank our customers for their loyalty as we celebrate our 30th birthday this year and what better way to do so than by offering amazing fares to so many incredible destinations,” Tyri Squyres, the vice president of marketing at Frontier Airlines, said in a statement. 

Travel popular routes across Frontier’s network like Atlanta to Chicago, Nashville to Philadelphia, Baltimore to Tampa, Cincinnati to New York City, Denver to Los Angeles, and more starting at just $29 one-way. Or island hop in the Caribbean — where the airline has been expanding — with $29 one-way flights from San Juan, Puerto Rico, to St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Like most sales, there are a few catches. Not all destinations are available on all days (and some have specific days you can travel), and several blackout dates also apply: on July 3, from July 5 to 7, on Aug. 29, from Sep. 2 to 3, on Oct. 10, from Oct. 14 to 15, on Nov. 7, and from Nov. 11 to 12. A seven day advance purchase is required, but travelers do not need to purchase a roundtrip ticket to take advantage of the sale. 

Frontier is an ultra-low cost airline and charges passengers for everything from seat assignments to baggage. However, the airline recently started offering more luxury options, including introducing a new economic business class , called BizFare, and adding an “ UpFront Plus” option , which allows travelers to purchase seats in the first two rows with a blocked middle seat for added comfort.

Wrongly accused facialist accuses elizabeth banks, studio ifc films of ripping off her life story.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

A woman tells Page Six that “Hunger Games” star Elizabeth Banks and a Hollywood movie studio have ripped off her life story — and may be putting her in grave danger by doing so. Now she says she plans to sue.

Beverly Hills “facialist to the stars,” Dawn DaLuise, was arrested in 2014 on suspicion of ordering a hit against a rival beauty guru and spent ten months in prison before being found not guilty of the charges.

She has previously claimed in court papers that two alleged stalkers — “Bling Ring’ leader Nick Prugo and Edward Feinstein — set her up for the arrest.

But on Wednesday DaLuise was stunned to see a trailer for “Skincare” — a drama that DaLuise says is clearly based on her story — with Banks starring as Hope Goldman, a Beverly Hills facialist who is plunged into a deadly ordeal involving a rival beauty guru. It was the first she’d heard of the flick.

DaLuise tells us that she has been working with a production company to sell the story for some time, and was on the way to signing a deal with Netflix for a documentary, and she fears the Banks movie may scupper the project.

“It could rob me of my ability to tell my own story,” she told us.

But her bigger fear is how “Skincare” may affect her life. Prugo and Feinstein pleaded guilty to stalking her and her two daughters, but never did jail time. And DaLuise says that she has felt safest when she’s been able to use the media to “expose” them.

“The media are my minder and my bodyguard,” DaLuise said, adding that — while she would use her own project to cast a light on the duo’s alleged activities — it’s not clear from the trailer that “Skincare” will name Prugo and Feinstein or even explain their role in the case.

DaLuise says that since the trailer appeared, she’s been talking to lawyers about her options for going after the filmmakers.

Reps for the studio, IFC Films, and Banks didn’t get back to us.
