| | | | | The magic of travelling solo is only having to please yourself, from the big decisions - where and when to go - to the small - such as ‘yes I will have that gelato’. But heading out on your own doesn’t have to mean travelling alone with our range of classic tours, designed with solo travellers in mind.
With smaller group sizes, welcome drinks or dinners so you can get to know your fellow travellers and carefully planned itineraries, these trips make both planning your break and enjoying your time away a breeze.
From bucket list destinations across Africa, Asia and beyond, to quick hops across the channel to explore France, Italy and more, there are lots of destinations to discover. So, make 2025 the year you go… | | The Guardian Holidays team
