Where should I travel when single?

You can travel solo all around the world - it's more common than you think! On our trips, 70% percent of travellers go 'solo'. Of course, they don't stay solo for long, as when you travel it's easy to make friends with young people like. It's also great for a spot of romance, if that's what you're after.

Anywhere! But if you want to ensure you don't stay on your own for too long, consider taking a group holiday. On our trips, 70% of travellers join us alone, but leave with lifelong friendships.

Question 4

Where is the best place to travel alone?

Question 5

If I join Contiki on my own, will I have to share a room on my trip?

Accepted Answer

Shared accommodation is part of the Contiki experience. How many people you’ll be sharing with depends on the region, travel style and type of accommodation, but twin or multi-share (up to 6 in one room) same-sex sharing is the norm.

Festival accommodation is the only instance where up to 8 people could be sharing, and this may be mixed gender.

After a lil' more privacy? On many of our trips (especially ones that are Twinshare) you'll have the option to upgrade to a private room for an additional cost.

Question 6

If I join a Contiki trip, will I have any free time for myself?

Accepted Answer

Contiki trips are truly ownable. We provide the best framework for you to build on with significant free time. You can choose to explore, relax or eat your way through these blocks of time that are yours. You can even do it alone or with members of your group that you have befriended and share common interests.

Is solo travel with Contiki suitable for introverts?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. 70% of our travelers go solo, so you’ll have tons of chances to meet like-minded adventurers, plus the freedom to explore at your own pace. The best of both worlds!
