SOLO Connections
Description
Escorted Small Group Tours designed just for Solo Travellers.
Private Rooms, No Single Supplement.
Travel is such a different experience for Solo Travellers, from paying the often unreasonable single supplements to not having a travel buddy to share the excitement of a moment with, to the fear of being alone if something goes wrong.
There is also no fun in having to share with a stranger or sitting at a dinner table each night with no one to talk to.
With a growing number of people finding themselves widowed, divorced, single or even with a partner who doesn’t like to travel, a change was needed.
Recognizing this, Solo Connections has come up with a solution so no travelling singles need to worry again.
Our fully escorted tours come with NO single supplements and there’s no sharing a room with a stranger.
The itineraries are desgined to ensure you have a hassle free holiday in the company of like-minded travellers and an experienced escort is on hand 24 hours a day for assistance should you require it.
There are three styles of tours to choose from. You may like to travel on our 3 - 3.5 star Classic tours, enjoying 2 meals per day and daily sightseeing or perhaps our 3- 4 star Active tours will be more for you. Still having 2 meals per day and daily sightseeing but more of the soft adventurous style of sightseeing like street food markets and bushwalks.
And then there is our Collection. These tours are for those that like a little bit of indulgence whilst they are travelling. Collection tours are All-Inclusive. All meals, all sightseeing and luxury accommodation. If you enjoy the finer things, then these are the tours for you!
