Contact Your Travel Expert

Solo-ish Adventures is G Adventures’ first travel style created just for those traveling on their own. The pioneer of community tourism has championed solo travel for over three decades, but these new trips – in some of the tour operator’s most popular destinations - are exclusively for solo travelers. 

Available to book now, for travel beginning in March 2025, Solo-ish features 13 trips in some of G Adventures' most popular destinations, including Costa Rica, India, Peru, South Africa and Vietnam.

Would you believe it? More than 50 percent of G Adventures’ global travelers are booking a small group adventure on their own. It’s part of a huge trend towards solo travel. But Solo-ish Adventures are unique.

Acknowledging the ongoing ‘loneliness epidemic’ and celebrating travelling solo as a mindset, Solo-ish caters to travelers who have the desire to go at it alone and are seeking personal growth, connection and safety as they travel. 

At the same time, all trips will harness the power of community tourism, ensuring local interactions and maximum benefit to local people in terms of money staying in the destination. 

“The barrier to travel for a lot of solo people was the fear of being bored or alone, surrounded by other couples as a third wheel, or a general fear of traveling solo in a new and unfamiliar location,” acknowledges G Adventures.

“Traveler mindsets are changing, however. We’ve seen a rise in the more mature traveler, who is no longer willing to wait for a partner, friends or family to book an adventure. Whether it’s a life-changing event, a desire for something new, or just an itch to go out and experience the world,” the number of solo travelers is surging. 

“Many are still seeking the connection that comes with a group, and this is where Solo-ish shines. With no upper age limit, Solo-ish is open to everyone who wants to experience the adventure of a lifetime while making some truly special friendships and memories along the way,” G Adventures explains. 

“The team has drilled down into the mindset of solo travellers to create itineraries unlike anything else currently on offer. Fun-filled dinner parties and surprise experiences help bring the group closer together in the first few days of the tour while respecting solo travellers’ desire for free time and space. With safety front of mind for many solo travellers, especially our solo female travellers, Solo-ish trips go above and beyond to ensure people feel safe and supported so they can focus on exploring and making local connections to a country and its people.”

SOLO-ISH ADVENTURES' UNIQUE FEATURES

Kicking off with a dinner party and culinary experience on day one, the group will bond and get to know each other over some delicious local dishes. A ‘We Day’ on day two focuses on driving connections between travellers, the CEO (Chief Experience Officer) and local communities with experiences such as a Taekwondo lesson in South Korea, a visit to a G Adventures-supported cafe in Athens that supports the homeless community and a morning spent whizzing around the streets of Hanoi. 

The third ‘G Day’ cements friendships with incredible ‘pinch me moments’ only available on a G Adventures trip including kayaking with penguins in Cape Town, a dinner in Jaipur’s Amber Fort and ziplining through the forests of La Fortuna in Costa Rica. For an extra splash of purple, a surprise experience is added to every G Day, pushing travelers to embrace the unknown and step out of their comfort zone. 

Setting itself apart from other solo tours available, unique highlights of the Solo-ish travel style include:

  • Itineraries are crafted to drive connection quickly among the group and local communities, with the first three days ‘front-loaded’ with experiences designed to turn a group of strangers into a close-knit crew.
  • Free time to recharge, including a ‘Me Day’, giving travellers the freedom to explore on their own.
  • Female-only CEOs (chief experience officers) who are dedicated to creating a safe, fun and empowering environment for all travelers, at the same time promoting more opportunities for women in travel.
  • Complimentary arrival transfers to help travellers feel taken care of from the moment they arrive at their destination.
  • Trips are designed for solo travelers aged 18 and above, with no upper age limit, meaning travelers are just as diverse as the places they visit.
  • Up to 50 percent off ‘My Own Room’ for travelers wanting their own space, with no single supplements as standard for those who are happy to share with a traveler of the same gender.
  • Trips will harness the power of connection via communal cooking to drive friendships, with hands-on culinary experiences and dinner parties included on the first day of every itinerary as well as a surprise moment along the way.
