What is an ‘Exclusively Solos’ Tour?

We all have our own individual requirements when it comes to how we travel. It’s your holiday, and at Distant Journeys you can choose the style of holiday that suits you best.

Our solo travel tours are open to anyone wanting to travel on their own, and offer stress-free travel, friendship and freedom. And, no single occupancy supplements mean exceptional value too.

You’ll have the support and guidance of a knowledgeable tour guide and fellow holidaymakers to help you get the most out of your experience – discovering hidden gems and immersing yourself in cultural experiences.

Benefits of an Escorted Tour

If travelling alone seems daunting, an escorted solo tour is a great place to start. You’ll have the opportunity to mix with like-minded people that share your passion for exploring new places, whilst still enjoying your independence.

Escorted tours provide a great sense of safety and security, and can be more relaxing than planning a trip entirely on your own. Our solo tours include a set itinerary with planned activities and many amazing experiences along the way, and group sizes are small at a maximum of 19, creating a real sense of community amongst travellers.

Our solo groups really do have the best of both worlds when it comes to independence and camaraderie.
