Singles holidays

Me too tanith. I do go away, for a short break, once a year with a friend but I'd really like to have a proper holiday, preferably in the UK to begin with. Most of the solo travel companies I've looked at seem to offer only holidays abroad and that's just too much for me as a first timer.

I’d really love to try a solo trip I’m just so chicken ?

I would like to go on some kind of working holiday with plenty to do .

I have been on several as a single man, all the groups have been 2/3 women, most of the rest couples plus one or two men. 0f the 2/3 single women half were on their own, the rest with a travel buddy, some a close friend, some with a partner they only ever meet to holiday together.
If you don’t have a travel buddy the tour company will pair you up with another traveler of the same sex, or you can often (not always) pay for a single room.

All the trips I have been on the guide has arranged everything, transport, food and entertainment and as long as you follow the guide there will be no problems. The age groups are often very wide, the youngest I recall is 25 the oldest 85 although 50 to 70 would be a typical age range.

I’m really amazed just how adventurous older ladies are, many have left boring husbands at home and got away for some new experiences.
