Single Travel

Why would you want to go on holiday without your partner? Where's the fun in exploring new places without someone to share it with?

Exactly.

I enjoy it for a couple of days then start pining for the missus

Nothing wrong with B*ggering orf while the permie stays at home.

i've used www.intrepid.com when heading to countries that it's not to easy to get round in on yer own.

Groups no more than 12, though when i went to China, there was only 3 of us, which was great!

Did a lot of traveling as a young, single man but oddly, can't remember that much about it. I look through the photos I took and feel almost nothing.

It stuck me later in life that going to places only becomes significant when there's someone else to share the experience and when you can remember it together.

It's good value though. A day in Swindon is like a week anywhere else.

Morning All,

Have done a fair bit of travel and am looking to do more. Partner is very low on holiday (permie). I was wondering if any of you have experience of some of these companies offering solo group travel and any experiences they wish to share.

I would be mightily pissed off if my partner went on extra holidays that I couldn't go on for reasons of holiday allowances.

I would expect holidays to be taken together and if they had extra time they could use that to do odd-jobs, retail therapy, seeing friends or even spending the day drinking wine in front of the TV I wouldn't mind, but going on holiday would be unacceptable.

Yes it is very difficult to juggle things likes holiday if one of you is a permy - C'est la vie !
