Frequently Asked Questions about singles holidays
Do I always have to pay the single supplement as a solo traveller?
No. Many tour operators offer dates without or with a reduced single supplement. Particularly club hotels, cruises and group trips often have suitable allocations.
From what age am I a “best ager”?
In the travel industry usually from about 50. Many singles trips distinguish between younger singles, singles of middle age and best agers.
Is a group trip not for me if I need quiet?
Not necessarily. Good group trips offer fixed programme points but also free time. Those looking for a great deal of quiet are often better off in a wellness hotel or adults-only hotel.
Can singles with a child travel?
Yes. There are offers for single parents with a child, often with fixed children's prices or a reduced single supplement. Family clubs are particularly suitable for this.
Are singles holidays a dating service?
No. The focus is on holidays with like-minded people, not dating. Contacts arise naturally, but are not an obligation and not an official aim of the trip.
