Solo Travel in Europe

If you're flying solo for the first time, a solo city break is just the thing and Europe isn't short of options. To satisfy your cultural cravings, make a beeline for one of the continent's capitals where you'll find no shortage of excellent museums, galleries and restaurants. There's Gaudi's colourful creations in Barcelona, the world-famous Louvre museum in Paris and ancient architecture of Rome.

For a slower-paced solo holiday, opt for a European road trip. Discover beautiful beaches and historic cities while touring Normandy and Brittany, lap up the luxury on the Cote d'Azur - with pampering spa days and private cooking classes along the way - and hop between cool coastal cities while exploring Andalucia and Southern Portugal.

And if it's a spot of solo adventure you're after? Europe is home to some seriously epic nature from the fjords and glaciers in Iceland - where we can arrange sea kayaking, whale-watching and horse-riding - to the towering Dolomites range in Italy where you can ski in the winter and brave the heights of the Via Ferrata walkways in the summer.
