Solo travel tours to various destinations from $839

It has always been that someone wishing to travel solo would be penalized (for a number of silly reasons) in some cases 100% of published touring prices which is always based on double occupancy, or when two share a room.

On cruises, the single supplement charge is somewhat justified since there are so few twin cabins. But on guided sightseeing tours, paying double often leaves behind the traveler that simply cannot afford to pay what two people pay.

Finally, more travel companies are understanding the demand for single travelers and either have a zero single supplement charge or a modest increase from that per person, based on double pricing. Budget tour operators may want to pair up two single travelers when available, so a slight charge may apply if you want a room for yourself.

Globus Escapes offers a price break to solo/single travelers on a wide range of guided European & Middle East trips in 2023/2024. The zero single fee does not apply to every itinerary but only to the first 5 singles booked.

Here are some sample trips:

• 6-Day Scottish Highlands Escape, from $839
• 7-Day Morocco, from $839
• 7-Day Greece, from $999
• 7-Day Jordan, from $1,179
• 8-Day Israel, from $1,659
• 9-Day Italy Escape, from $1,669
• 9-Day Egypt with Nile Cruise, from $2,179

Select tours may include optional round-trip international airfare for as little as $400 additional.
