See the world through your eyes, your story, your solo travel adventure.
Independent adventures
Travelling on your own, but never alone.
Whether you’re flying solo by choice, ticking off a bucket list while your partner stays home, or simply craving some ‘me time’ with the option of great company along the way, we’ve got you.
Our independent travel options are perfect for those who want to explore the world on their own terms – with the freedom to set your pace, plus the comfort of a group when you want it. You might be keen on a guided small group tour, a women-only journey, a cruise with no single supplement, or a tailored trip with your own space at the end of each magical day. However you want to travel, we’ll match you with the experience that makes it feel easy, safe and unforgettable.
From culinary walking tours through Italy, to sailing in Croatia, to dancing across the temples of Thailand, these trips are made for connection – with places, with people, and most importantly, with yourself.
There are a variety of tours, cruises and experiences that cater for those travelling on your own. Check out some of our favourites solo deals or holidays below!
So go on, plan that big trip. Just for you.

CHOOSE THE WAY YOU TRAVEL
Happy to share
Skip the single supplement by sharing a room with a same-gender traveller on select tours. It’s a great way to save—and maybe meet your travel twin along the way.
Your own space, your own pace
Prefer the comfort of your own room? Choose the single supplement option—join the group by day, unwind in your private retreat by night.

We’ve been matching travelers with their perfect trip for over 35 years – and we’d love to help you find yours. Let’s chat about your independent adventure!

My first big trip was off to Camp America many years ago. As soon as I stepped foot on the first big international plane, the travel bug bit me and I never wanted to stop! Eventually I had to get a "real job" and what better job than as a travel agent.
Since then I've enjoyed sending many more people on their first big exciting trip overseas, on family holidays, honeymoons, reunions, road trips, girls trips and any other reason you can think of for travel!

My love for travel
kicked off early, I entered the industry at 19 and have been lucky enough to
turn that passion into a career. I’ve explored over 45 countries and
experienced travel in just about every way imaginable: solo adventures, OEs,
family holidays, cruises, group tours, and everything in between.
Having lived in several
countries, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the diversity of travel and
how personal each journey can be. I truly believe the best holidays start with
thoughtful planning, and I love helping others turn their travel dreams into
reality.
I bring a mix of energy, enthusiasm, and people-focused leadership to my role. I’m a bubbly, approachable personality who thrives on connecting with others, but I’m also highly organised and passionate about ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
