Rest assured, solo traveller – just because you’re taking it solo, doesn’t mean you’ll be by yourself. There are plenty of well-crafted holidays to suit every single one of our guests. It's time to choose the adventure you want to experience.

So, you’re the kind of person who prefers their own company, or you are someone who enjoys personal space with the option to socialise; whoever you are, we know you have a passion for travel, and with our solo holidays collection it's never been easier to find the perfect holiday.

Have you ever considered a river cruise through France? Now is the perfect chance. Climb aboard MS Jane Austen and see the sights of one of the world’s oldest nations. Meet like-minded travellers as you meander down the Seine and gaze at the joys of Rouen’s beautiful cathedrals. Or what about a tour to an exotic, far-flung destination? See Mother Nature at her best in South Africa, get a taste for Japanese culture and food with a highlights tour, or read a newspaper as you float on Jordan’s Dead Sea. 

Solo travel is the perfect opportunity to swap stories with like-minded people, have as much social time as you want (and plenty of time alone when you need a moment of peace) and tick another destination off your bucket list. Enjoy a welcome dinner and drinks PLUS all the benefits of our classic holidays. And through all this, you will be accompanied by an expert Tour Manager - they will be your trusted guide on your journey and will always be close by should you need any help or advice while you’re with us. Or feel free to explore our Frequently Asked Questions section for all the answers you need.

Travel solo, yet never alone

The Riviera holiday begins from your departure point

The Tour Manager will meet you at the airport (or Eurostar station), check in and travel there with you. Where this isn’t possible, a Riviera team member will greet you at the airport, help you check in and introduce you to other members in the group.

Less is more with small group sizes

The maximum group size of our solo tours is just 25 people. This gives a more intimate and personalised experience. For ocean and river cruising, it depends on your ship size. Our yacht cruises having a maximum of just 19 cabins, so just 19 guests!

Expert Tour Manager looking after you throughout

Our Riviera Tour Managers specialise in solo travel. They’ll ensure you feel safe and welcome, making your trip one to remember (you should learn lots from them too)!

Break the ice at the welcome dinner
