What We Do
At Solo Travel we unite solo travellers. We create immersive itineraries for small-groups of individuals who enjoy getting under the skin of a country in the company of like-minded people. So, though you are on your own, you’ll never feel alone.
Our Story
We created Solo Travel for curious solo travellers just like us. We’ve travelled the world, and we’ve taken trips alone. Sometimes we wished we had company. Other times we’ve met amazing new people who became firm friends. We wanted to create the chance for everyone to explore the world and share their experiences with people of a similar age.
Too many companies offer huge groups or are aimed at older travellers. They charge hefty single supplements or make you share rooms. At Solo Travel, you get none of that.
We want to give you the confidence to travel to exotic destinations, meet new people, and explore different cultures while also having the privacy to travel on your own terms. We cater to busy professionals aged between 30 and 40 who can now make the most of their well-earned holiday time with people with shared interests.
If there’s one thing we know, it’s travel. So you can rest assured we’ll do all the legwork for you, putting together incredible routes and itineraries, mapping out unforgettable experiences, and creating that dream trip. Planning is time-consuming, so we’ll sort out everything for a seamless journey. All you have to worry about is getting to the airport on time.
Enjoy your solo travel trips without language barriers with the help of our local English-speaking guides. We handle everything from private transport to well-designed itineraries to ensure you get to do all you want to do, with time to sit back and relax as well.

Hassle-Free Planning

On all of our trips, we use local, English-speaking guides and have private transport to and from the destination airport. We design seamless itineraries so you can make the most of your valuable holiday time.
Who We Are
Meet Ciara, the founder of Solo Travel
I love travelling alone. I love the joy and sense of freedom it gives me. But one night in a tapas bar, sitting at my table for one, my eyes locked on a group of people who were deep in conversation and full of laughter. This, I thought, is the one thing missing from my trip; I have no one to share my experiences with. No one to laugh with about how something got lost in translation. No one to tell about the delicious street food I had for lunch. No one to clink a glass with at the end of another fantastic day exploring an unfamiliar place.
Never one to sit around and miss out, I immediately started researching group travel for those going it alone. I noticed a gap in the market for people like me — thirty-something, can’t find travel buddies (most of my friends are married with children so find it difficult to get away), enjoys deep and meaningful travel but loves to have a laugh and share stories and experiences with like-minded people. Oh, and no longer wants to share a bunk in a hostel (I like a higher thread-count nowadays).
So, I set up Solo Travel. It is a dynamic, small-group travel company the unities solo travellers, like me and you, with itineraries designed to get to know a place, its people and its culture with boutique accommodations that capture the vibe of the area.”
