The attention to detail and making sure that the clients were well informed of what was coming up on the route was well appreciated. The stop and lookout points along the way are perfect and well thought out. Highly recommend this tour and the professionalism of the staff and company.

That is an awesome trip that I have so far outside China. The group members are really nice.

The CEO also helps a lot and I am really appreciate for her help. Thanks to me such a amazing experience with all of members and CEO

• Sightseeing

The Maritimes: Nova Scotia

My husband and I did the tour of the Martimes in Nova Scotia. It was beautiful country. Our tour guide, Louise, was fantastic. She is so kind and caring; she is an amazing safe driver. She's always there for you. The only thing I didn't like about the trip was the motel in Baddeck. It was so old; musty smelling. Needs a total renovation. Everything about it was pretty awful. No-one on the trip was happy with this hotel. Other than that, we did enjoy the rest of the trip. the other hotels were fine. The Picnic Louise arranged was a lot of fun and the hike was awesome on the Cabot trail.

• Mountain Hikes

Canadian Rockies: National Parks Eastbound

Hiking, waterfalls, stunning scenery, mountains, emerald lakes, glaciers, wildlife and a brilliant guide and tour group. This was a fast paced, but fantastic tour that I would highly recommend. I will definitely be going back to West Canada

Essence of Eastern Canada (End Toronto, 8 Days, Toronto Airport And Post Trip Hotel Transfer)

Wonders of the Maritimes & Scenic Cape Breton (11 destinations)

Excellent tour guide and bus driver. The tour interesting and well organized. The hotels and meals were very good . Everything ran like clock work. The" box breakfast" was especially appreciated as we had to leave our hotel at 2:30 am for our flight home and it would have been hard to get anything to eat in the time we had.

Vancouver Island & Northern Rockies

Great tour leader! Energetic and friendly. Didn’t take into account varying abilities. Great participants but the energy level of the tour was a bit much for me. Didn’t like racing down the trail. Approaching 70, maybe tour wasn’t right for me. Itinerary was lousy except for two days: inside passage and Icefields highway. Good time overall. Thanks, Storm!

Canadian Rockies Express

Itinerary was great, scenery was beautiful, and our guide was fun. I was the only male in the group with my wife and 11 other females and it worked out fine. Everyone was very congenial, and the diversity of the group added to the experience. Only thing I would change would be the accommodations in Vancouver. While the hotel was fine it was very far from the downtown and sights, so we spent most of our time the last day in the van in traffic. Overall, it was a fantastic trip.

Heart of the Canadian Rockies

Tour Director and driver made the time on board the bus less taxing

What people love about Canada Solo Tours

We enjoyed our tour very much, the sights were beautiful, staff we well informed. A highlight for us was the optional evening photographic tour. The only thing stopping me from giving five stars was the last day felt very rushed, especially at the Banff gondola as the queue to get on took half an hour and not enough time allocated to our lunch at the Lake Louise Chateau, we had to ask the waitress to bring out the dessert while we were eating the main as we only had 15 minutes until the bus left. Allocate a bit more time for those things and you will get five stars.

Great experience and great guides like Allan and David.

I have great time. Dusty is the best tour manager. I have very good first camping trip.

17 of the Best Places in Canada for Solo Travelers

05/05/2022 by Kristin Addis 16 Comments

Oh, Canada, you’re one fantastic country to visit, especially as a solo traveler!

For those who love the outdoors, want a safe and incredibly friendly place to travel in, and want to experience many different cultures all at once, Canada is the perfect solo destination at any time of year.

Canada is easy to navigate, has a very low crime rate, is absolutely huge (so you can’t run out of national and provincial parks or activities), and is breathtakingly beautiful. Need we say more?

Though the whole country is worth exploring, these are a few places that my fellow travel bloggers and I think are particularly good for solo travelers:

Table of Contents

1. Le Baluchon Éco-villégiature, Québec

Sitting on a thousand acres in the Mauricie region of Québec, this luxurious eco-resort is the perfect wintertime getaway if your solo trip is all about self-care. Featuring a Nordic-style spa, a farm-to-table restaurant, and extra cozy details throughout, you’ll feel completely taken care of here.

Activities around Le Baluchon Éco-villégiature include skiing, fat-biking, riding in a horse carriage, snowmobiling, and snowshoeing. Although this destination is just two hours from Montréal, it feels a world away from any city noises and is the ideal place to relax and unwind.

Read more about how to have the best winter getaway near Montréal here .

2. Gatineau, Québec

The first stop on my fall Québec road trip , Gatineau is just the right place to find some peace and quiet with lots of nature. Check out Nordic Spa-Nature for a bit of pampering, or explore Gatineau Park, which has 360 square kilometers of nature to explore. There you’ll find Pink Lake, which has a 2.5km (1.55 mile) trail around it, ideal for a leisurely stroll or a jog.

This destination is great on its own for a quick weekend trip but also makes the best launching point for a road trip through Québec, which I definitely recommend for a solo adventure.

3. Banff, Alberta

Alberta was my first stop ever in Canada, and by the time I left, I was seriously asking myself if I should just come back and move in.  Alberta is a winter wonderland , with snow-shoeing tracks, Nordic skiing, ice climbing, and ice fishing all nearby. It’s also home to excellent downhill skiing in Banff and Lake Louise. In the summer, it’s the perfect jumping-off point for hiking trails galore.

Though everywhere in Canada has its own special beauty, this part of Alberta sure is a standout.

4. Icefields Parkway, Alberta

“The Icefields Parkway is not particularly long — 233 kilometers from Jasper to Lake Louise — and is easy to do in one direction in a day, even with all the stops. And it’s these stops that make it perfect for a solo traveler. You’ll never have a chance to get bored on this drive, because there are constantly places you’ll want to get out of the car to take photos and explore off the road. And then, regardless of which direction you go, you’ll find friendly towns with lots of other travelers at the end of the road trip, in Jasper or Banff National Parks.” — Michael of  Time Travel Turtle

5. Churchill, Manitoba

What could be more epic than seeing the northern lights? Seeing them in complete silence, taking in the beautiful solitude of the moment. Churchill, Manitoba, is undoubtedly one of the greatest places in the world to see this phenomenon, due to its proximity to the auroral oval in the remote subarctic. That said, this destination is certainly not for cold-weather haters, especially considering that the best time to see the northern lights is the dead of winter.

Besides beholding the iconic aurora borealis, there’s plenty of other splendid things to do in Churchill . Take a snowmobile over a frozen bay to visit a shipwreck, go dog-sledding, or check out the many murals in Churchill , which touch on the current global climate crisis.

6. Winnipeg, Manitoba

When I told some Canadian friends that I was heading to Winnipeg for a couple weeks last summer, they scratched their heads and asked why. Manitoba must be Canada’s most underrated province, yet it’s probably the friendliest and one of the least crowded to travel through in the summer months. It also has thousands of lakes, so if you’re into paddling, it’s the ideal place to get some solitude.

I joined a  multiday canoeing adventure  right out of Winnipeg, enjoyed the summer Fringe Festival, and took a road trip around Lake Winnipeg (you can read more about that on my Manitoba writeup on  Alamo’s Scenic Drive ). Plus, it’s a great place for some pampering , as the wellness scene is hot right now.

7. Montréal, Quebec

8. Ottawa, Ontario

“Ottawa is also a student city, with two large universities and a college, so there are plenty of young people around. Plus… locals are known to be super friendly. It’s pretty common to strike up a conversation with a complete stranger while waiting for a coffee or… admiring artwork in the National Gallery of Canada. If you visit during the summer, head to Major’s Hill Park or Nepean Point. Both are favorite hangout spots for locals looking to soak up the sun.” — Hannah of  Eat Sleep Breathe Travel

9. Killarney Provincial Park, Ontario

“For safety and additional paddle power, I hired a guide from Killarney Outfitters. They also provided all the gear and food necessary for a successful and bear-free weekend in the park. If this is your first canoe camping trip — like it was for me — I can only recommend heading out with a guide who is experienced and skilled in order to keep you safe and entertained.” — Kathi from  Watch Me See

10. Vancouver Island, British Columbia

“Check out Victoria, the capital of British Columbia and the biggest city on Vancouver Island, which feels kind of like a British city transplanted [to] Canada, but with a hippie vibe. The people are friendly and often environmentally conscious, which is no surprise given the beautiful surroundings they live in. You can explore Vancouver Island by public transport, hiring a car, or hitchhiking, which is fairly common on the island.” — Sonja of  Migrating Miss

11. Vancouver, British Columbia

“A place you can’t miss is the beautiful Stanley Park, [which offers] beautiful views of the harbor and the skyline. If you’re looking for a nice workout, hike up the Grouse Grind — you’ll be rewarded by spectacular views of the city. Afterwards, you can relax on the city beach and enjoy the sunset.

“For me, Vancouver is the perfect city — enjoy your visit!” — Patrick of  German Backpacker

12. Sunshine Coast, British Columbia

“Everyone loves Vancouver, and rightfully so. It is perfect for the solo traveler, with its bustling bars and jumping hostels, but visitors keep missing a gem over the water, Canada’s Sunshine Coast. The Sunshine Coast is made up of lots of small towns and even more lakes. Getting around is the only stumbling block for solo travelers, as the bus service isn’t that well connected. However, that really isn’t an issue, because the types of travelers that hit the Coast in BC are relaxed, friendly, and always willing to take others along with them on their trip.

“Staying at Up the Creek in Roberts Creek comes highly recommended for its relaxed vibes, hammocks on the porch, and free bikes to pedal to the bigger towns of Sechelt and Gibsons. Don’t be fooled by the one-shop village status: Roberts Creek has a big social calendar of live bands and fayres. The number of return visitors (family, couple, adventure, yoga loving, or solo) is a testament to just how lovely the Sunshine Coast is.” — Gemma of  Two Scots Abroad

13. Calgary, Alberta

14. Québec City, Québec

“Based on just one statistic, Québec City already ranks high for solo female travelers as the province with the lowest crime rate in Canada. Other factors that will push Québec City to the top of the list are: friendly locals, year-round beauty and activities, art and culture, [being a] bike-friendly destination, and that sweet.. sweet.. maple taffy!” — Pari of  Traveling Pari

15. Kananaskis Country, Alberta

“Active women can get lost in the beautiful sights and dizzying heights on any of the superlative hiking, cycling, and cross-country ski trails that will suit all skill levels. As always when traveling solo, some safety precautions should be taken, so always leave your itinerary with a trusted friend or family member, and carry bear spray when on the trails. Making noise is the best deterrent against run-ins with carnivores, so sing a song to yourself like no one is listening, except for the bears!

“For a taste of rustic luxury, book yourself into the beautiful and remote Mount Engadine Lodge and sample the delicious locally inspired cuisine while watching the sun set over the meadow from the lodge’s expansive wrap-around deck. Included in the nightly rates are afternoon high tea with scrumptious treats, an award-worthy dinner, a hearty breakfast, and a packed lunch to take with you on any number of the adventures [in] the area. In the winter, you could snowshoe [in] the lodge’s meadow, or ski any of amazing nearby trails. In the warmer months, there are endless hiking opportunities and the chance to cycle to the top of the highest paved road in Canada. The possibilities are limited only by how much energy you have.

“For ladies seeking a more relaxing retreat in the mountains, check into the Delta Hotels Kananaskis Lodge for a weekend of pampering and fine dining in the most gorgeous mountain setting.

“If Kananaskis is not on your radar for solo female travel already, it should be now. Its exhilarating mountain scenery and breathtaking adventures will give any adventurous woman the chance to get away from it all in the most incredible setting.” — Thea of  Zen Travellers

16. Toronto, Ontario

“My favorite things to do include exploring the extensive street art, including Graffiti Alley and Underpass Park, spending a day in Kensington Market wandering through the shops and sampling food, finding unique coffee shops (my favorite was Odin, a Scandinavian-inspired café and bar), and eating my way through Toronto. You can find just about any cuisine imaginable in Toronto, and as a vegan, I had absolutely no trouble eating to my heart’s content. Don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled as you’re walking around to see all the fun and eclectic parts of the [city], such as an entire store devoted to condoms, a Harry Potter–themed shop, and a dog fountain.” — Ashley of  The Southern Gypsy

17. St. John’s, Newfoundland

This small city may be one of the least populated capital cities in the country, but it’s packed with things to do to keep any solo traveler sufficiently occupied. For the outdoorsy solo traveler, check out the East Coast Trail, which stretches a whopping 336km [209 miles] along the eastern coastline of Newfoundland. You can hike it in chunks or embark on a rugged backpacking journey along any of the 25 wilderness trails.

There’s a lot of history and charm to St. John’s, which you can check out at Signal Hill National Historic Site and the Quidi Vidi village. The downtown area of the city is vibrant, colorful, and full of kitschy shops and restaurants. This is a superb place to immerse yourself in Eastern Canada’s robust culture. Locals here are extremely friendly, so you likely won’t feel so alone.

Bonus: Music Festivals

First Name:

Those are a few of our favorite places to travel in Canada, though a list for the world’s second largest country is, of course, probably endless! For safety, outdoor adventures, beauty, and easy-to-navigate cities with plenty to do year-round, Canada has it all.

It is great to see such a positive review of my adopted country including my home Montreal. However, as somebody who has traveled a fair amount in the world AND driven Canada from coast to coast, I feel you are doing a big part of the population a disservice when you claim the “13 of the Best Places in Canada for Solo Travelers” and completely neglect a large part of the country.

The maritime provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland are where some of the oldest settlements in North America can be found dating back to the days of the Vikings. Add to that some of the most stunning scenery in the world. Also, speaking as a seasoned traveler, I have always found the Maritimers some of the friendliest people on the planet.

I realize you cannot cover all of such a vast country, after all it spans six time zones, but I hope you will return someday to visit the east. I believe you will be adding many more “best places” to your list.

Oh, and then there are the northern Territories.

Love your blog. Happy travels.

I’d love to see more of Canada! Thanks for adding in some more places.

04/08/2018 at 8:46 am

Nice list BMTM! Going to peak into Canada this summer hopefully. I have these two thoughts! Like you said the list can go on and on…..

1. It is referenced in the Toronto, Ontario listing for a second, but I really enjoyed Niagara Falls, Ontario (and New York on the US side) and the Canadian Falls is the bigger of the two groups of falls. It is fun for solo travelers, couples and families. It goes well with a jaunt to Toronto! I realize it is very touristy, but you can avoid the crowds by timing it right.

2. I would also encourage people to visit New Brunswick/Nova Scotia – two of Canada’s eastern maritime provinces. In these little provinces, you have so many things to explore including whale watching and the funky tremendous tides in the Bay of Fundy (up to 50 feet/15 meters!). Then there are the Reversing Falls (yes literally), gorgeous forests, wildlife, and even small mountains with nice views (especially in the fall!) and a surprisingly challenging climb! To be honest, haven’t been there myself but my travel friends rave about it. Some include it as part of an adventure trip that includes the state of Maine. Did you know Sugarloaf Mountain in New Brunswick is an ancient extinct volcano??

And I encourage people as an extension to the listing of “Winnipeg, Manitoba” to look at Kristin’s posts titled “Murals that Tell a Story of Climate Change in Churchill, Manitoba” and “Whale Watching and Polar Bear Encounters in Canada”. These are adventures worth pursuing. Imagine kayaking with Belugas coming to you for a visit!

Heard great things about Nova Scotia too.

I always manage to skip over Canada cause I figure i’ll get there eventually so I should go somewhere further away lol. But everyone who has gone there loves it!

04/10/2018 at 5:36 pm

I am disappointed that you haven’t mentioned the Maritimes and Newfoundland. I am actually shocked. How did you do your research ? On a computer, only? The friendliest, funniest, most welcoming people, and in breathtaking surrounds, that will take your breath away, are in the Atlantic Provinces. If you want adventure, hospitality for solo travellers as well as nature, that’s where you should head.

04/11/2018 at 8:03 am

By asking people who have been to Canada alone which parts they enjoyed, as you can see from the article 😉 Thanks for the recs, though.

So beautiful! How have I never been to Canada? One thing’s certain, there’s plenty to see!

Banff has been on my list for a long time – it is so gorgeous! What do you recommend as can’t miss?

here you go! https://www.bemytravelmuse.com/things-to-do-banff-winter/

You are definitely in the minority for having enjoyed Winnipeg. Most people are repulsed by it. The Charlevoix region of Quebec is incredible, and a less known area, if you’re more of a nature person, is Northern Ontario. I’ve always been surprised that it’s never become a serious travel destination other than for fishing. A absolutely beautiful place.

01/13/2019 at 12:52 am

Repulsed? Whoa, I thought it was so underrated!

05/30/2019 at 5:20 pm

I am glad you enjoyed Montreal ! Canada surely is a great and safe country, especially for solo travellers , it is a great place to start your solo adventures! I love my country Canada, regardless the reputation it is a cold country ! So what!!! W e are a land full of natural and raw beauty !

Excellent article. After reading this post I love to go there. Thanks for sharing.

04/04/2021 at 10:54 am

Hi Kristin,

I love your vlog and your pictures make me want to go everywhere. I am older, hit retirement awhile back, so traveling is getting a little tougher. I don’t want to sit and wonder how long I have left to take trips and I’m not big on cruises or bus trips. I have always wanted to travel through Canada to places where there are a few people to meet and lots to see. Do you have any suggestions for someone alone who has reduced stamina but ongoing desire to see and learn.

Thank you, Mary

04/04/2021 at 11:54 am

I really liked Manitoba’s Churchill region for the belugas and polar bears! That’s a guided tour but I really enjoyed it so much.

Sensational Ontario Getaways for Solo Travelers

September 19, 2018 by Janice Waugh

I'm proud of my province.

From major cities like Toronto and Ottawa to Ontario's small towns and the wonderful, wandering wilderness in between, there is no shortage of Ontario getaways to enjoy.

Over the past few years I've done dozens of solo weekend getaways in Ontario. Those trips have focused on cultural activities like theater, wine, and food.

This year, three other writers and I took more adventurous weekend trips in Ontario.

• I took a cycling trip.
• Grace went whitewater rafting and kayaking.
• Bettine took a break from her usual backcountry camping and went glamping.
• Our editor Tracey ventured the backroads of Ontario taking the longest route possible to Killarney and the shores of Georgian Bay.

Here's your inspiration from these trips, links to more Ontario getaways and tips on planning your weekender in Ontario.

A Solo Summer Road Trip to Killarney

On this trip to the famous Killarney Mountain Lodge on Georgian Bay, Tracey took the long way. She turned 4 1/2 hours of highway driving into 7 hours of backroad driving with beautiful scenery, light traffic, and less stress. On her weekend she took a boat tour of Georgian Bay, ate great local fare, and learned a few lessons. Read all about it.

More Ontario Getaways to Consider

If you’re in Southern Ontario, here are few solo weekend getaways which Tracey and I experienced and wrote about. They are just a few hours' drive out of town.

• The Oxford County Cheese Trail: A Photo Tour
• Travel Tips for Haldimand County: Fresh Air and Fine Dining

Planning Your Weekend Trip in Ontario

I have to introduce you to the Explore Ontario website. The site is organized so that you can plan your trip geographically or by the activity you're interested in. There's a trip planner section that has suggested itineraries as well as a a tool to create your own custom itinerary. They even have a live chat function to get to an Ontario travel counselor. So, if none of the itineraries above strike your fancy, there are many other ways to plan your Ontario getaway.

Thank you to Destination Ontario for sponsoring these trips. As always, Solo Traveler maintains full editorial control over all content on this site.

Travelling single? Small group travel could be just the ticket 

Is a Japanese onsen calling you? Or maybe a flavour-packed taco in the streets of Mexico City has your name on it? Whether you’re travelling solo, single or simply can’t be labelled, our small group tours are the perfect way to explore a destination and meet like-minded people. While our tours aren’t exclusively for single travellers in their 50s or 60s , you'll be part of a small group of intergenerational, adventure-hungry individuals who are just as keen to explore as you are. From swapping anecdotes over Aperols on the Amalfi Coast to late-night chats under the desert skies of Wadi Rum, it’s often those moments of connection – big and small – that are most memorable.

Perks of travelling single with Intrepid

Single and keen to mingle?

Our trips can be great for singles over 50 and 60 as we take care of safety, logistics and transport so you can focus your time on the joy of travel. We don’t offer the classic ‘singles-only’ tours, but we do provide the perfect base for people looking to get to know others, usually a varied mix of ages, nationalities, cultures and more. Since our tours are so diverse, this could mean you’re on a trip with couples in their 40s, singles in their 20s, family groups or people travelling on their own in their fifties and beyond. Our tours aren’t specifically designed for making perfect matches, but hey, if it happens, it happens .

Small numbers, big sites

The best part of travelling in a small group is the friends you can make in the most unlikely of places – we’re talking while hiking the Inca Trail or cooking dhal in  Sri Lanka . It also means a bunch of new faces to share the world’s most epic experiences with and a few people around to watch your back (especially when walking through a traffic crossing in Vietnam ). No matter who you’re sharing your tour with, you’ll be docking at unbelievable sites, meeting local people and getting a one-of-a-kind journey - single or not, we think that's pretty epic.

Safety and logistics

Travelling solo at any age can feel like a big deal, especially when venturing to far-off places. That’s why small group tours are the perfect fit, no matter if you’re travelling alone at 25 or 65. We’ll do the planning, manage the itinerary, handle the transport and keep safety in mind - all so you can immerse yourself to the max. Not to mention, your guide will be able to support you with potential language barriers, give recommendations, show you the best spots for photos and so much more. Don’t just take our word for it, find out for yourself.

Local knowledge and unique perspectives

Maybe you’ve already seen the big sites and now looking for a different experience or new perspective. That’s where we come in. Our tours are led by our Local Leaders, all of whom are experts in their corner of the world and are out there showing it to others right now. Their knowledge of their country’s attractions, delicacies, cultures and communities is something you probably won’t get to experience elsewhere. Find yourself ducking into unknown hotspots and learning more than just the basics when you’re on one of our tours.

Recent tour reviews

Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join an intrepid trip as a senior.

Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises). However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.

Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.

Who are Intrepid travellers?

Intrepid adventures are for travellers with a yearning to get off the beaten track. Whether you're travelling solo, with a group of friends, or are aged 18 or 70, there is an Intrepid adventure to suit your interests and comfort level. Each Intrepid adventure has a physical and cultural grading to help you decide if the trip is right for you. No special skills are required for most adventures, just a sense of adventure and a curiosity about the world. Even on our camping adventures no previous experience is required; our tents are easy to set up, even for first-time campers. 

Are there age restrictions on your trips?

For the majority of our trips the minimum age is 15. An adult must accompany all children under the age of 18. Our Overland Adventures have a minimum age of 18. Younger children can join us on our Family trips and Short Break Adventures, but check each trip for its minimum age, which is located on the trip’s overview page on the website. Most of our trips don’t have a maximum age limit, but a Self-Assessment Form is required for all passengers 70 years and over. 

How many people will be on my trip?

Good things come in small packages, which is why we keep our group sizes down. This means we’re small enough to remain flexible as we thread our way through communities without intimidating the locals. On most of our trips you’ll be part of an intimate group of 12-16 people, though our group sizes are on average 10 people. Our Overland trips are in purpose-built vehicles that can carry up to 24 travellers. Group sizes are displayed on each trip’s overview page on our website. 

I’m travelling alone – is that OK?

This is the beauty of the Intrepid style of travel: many of our travellers join because they are travelling solo and want to meet and share experiences with like-minded people.

I have a disability – can I join an Intrepid trip?

Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. We ask that you carefully consider whether you are physically and mentally able to complete the itinerary you have chosen, recognising that on many trips you will be required to carry your own bags and use public transport. 

Where we can we will make reasonable adjustments to the operation of our trips to facilitate the requirements of disabled travellers – such as booking ground floor accommodation, or having our leaders communicate important directions in writing as well as verbally. Many travellers with disabilities have been able to enjoy our trips by travelling with a friend or companion who can assist with specific needs. If joining a group trip is not practical we may be able to provide you with a private departure. Please contact our sales team for further information on any of our itineraries. 

Learn more about accessible travel with Intrepid

Do I need to buy travel insurance?

Travel insurance is compulsory on all our trips if you’re travelling internationally. Minimum coverage may differ from trip to trip, so make sure you check the Travel Insurance section in your Essential Trip Information. You will not be permitted to join the group until your leader has sighted your insurance policy number and the insurance company's 24-hour emergency contact number – it’s really important there are no barriers to getting emergency assistance for you. 

Will I have my own room?

It's your call. Rooming on our trips is organised on a twin-share basis, but most of our trips also have the option to pay an extra fee for your own room. Just let us know at the time of booking and we'll arrange it for you. 

For twin-share rooms, we pair up solo travellers with another traveller of the same gender as per the gender marker on each of their passports. As a responsible tour operator, we strive to create a safe and inclusive environment for everyone. In the case that your gender identity differs from what's indicated on your passport, please contact us so that we can discuss rooming options with you. 

On a small selection of itineraries some accommodations are booked on an open-gender, multi-share basis. In those instances it will clearly be stated in your Essential Trip Information. 

How does group time work?

Whether you’re travelling alone or with a partner, our trips have a set itinerary. But within that there’s time set aside for your own exploration (if you want to – no pressure). Depending on how you're feeling, you may want to have some downtime, ask your guide for a few tips then head out alone, or hang out with the group and see where the day takes you. 

What makes a small group tour better than a coach tour?

The main difference between a small group tour and a coach tour is the size of the group; our tours have 10 travellers each (on average) while coaches can hold up to 60 people. This means that you'll never have to vie for your leader's attention on a small group tour because you'll automatically have it.

As they're guided by expert leaders, who ensure that all of the details are taken care of, they make perfect walking holidays for  solo travellers  - all you need to worry abut is packing your most comfortable boots.

Travel solo, but never alone

What makes our trekking and walking holidays popular with single travellers is that you get all of the thrill and authenticity of solo travel, but without being alone. On any of our small group adventure holidays you could be joined by every type of traveller, including families, couples, and indeed fellow solo adventurers, so you're sure to meet some interesting people to share your experience with. Included in the cost of your walking or trekking holiday with Explore is your accommodation, travel and activities, as well as some or all of your meals (you'll find full details on the individual trip page) plus your flights, if you wish. With the details taken care of and your itinerary carefully planned, all you need to do is arrive, and enjoy every minute of your trip. You'll also have plenty of free time scheduled in too - and whether you'd like to use that to explore your destination further, or just indulge in some relaxing downtime, how you spend that is up to you. Of course, if you have any questions about any of our recommended holidays for solo travellers, just get in touch - our experts are always very happy to help you plan your perfect solo adventure holiday.

What travelers are saying

"Our family of four, including two adult children, took the Bicycling: Day Trips to Paradise in Canada. This trip is entirely outsourced to the owners of the inn, there are no Road Scholar employees involved in the trip. Two of us have taken bicycle trips all over the world and the bicycling component of this trip was disorganized, haphazard and almost unsafe. We all filled out forms giving details regarding our bicycle fitting months before the trip. On the first day, the leader Stephen, went around the room and asked the same questions and said everyone would get fitted in the morning before we began the first ride. The morning brought a rack of bikes, all different types in various levels of readiness. There were road bikes, hybrid bikes, mountain bikes and e-bikes. The rides were all on paved surfaces and the mountain bikes were heavy and the additional suspension added weight. The bike I received had rust on the chain and rear sprocket. When I asked about it, was told they were waiting for another van to show up with tools and equipment. Once it arrived, they gave me the lubricant to spray on the rust. My wife’s bike would not shift into the high gear on the front sprocket. Instead of adjusting the derailleur, they suggested spraying it with lubricant. Our one son is over six feet and needed a larger frame bike, even though he detailed it in the bike form months ago, there was no bike to fit him. One of the guides, then went home and brought a larger bike that was a full suspension mountain bike for him. The bike was very heavy, hard to control on the road and he felt unsafe. After two days, one of the guides convinced Stephen that they could adjust a hybrid bike to fit him. Clearly there was no work done to prepare the bikes for the trip. Many of the bikes needed adjusting and all needed lubricant to function easily. For every day, there was a tray of snacks placed out for us to take along the ride. None of the bikes had any baskets or attached bags, so if you didn’t bring a small day pack, there was no way to carry the snacks. For lunch on the rides, they brought exactly one sandwich for each rider. Since most of us get hungry while doing a day of exercise, it would have been helpful to have a few extras. On one day, they ran out of sandwiches and one of the leaders that were riding with us did not get lunch. Do NOT take this trip if you are expecting it to be a bicycling trip. We have used VBT and Discovery Bicycle Tours many times over the past 25 years and they are excellent bike tour companies. Lastly, after sharing these details with Road Scholar after the trip, their response was weak at best. After doing the full reviews and having to call them, their response was to give us $200 credit after spending $8000 on this trip. Not only was that insulting, they assumed that I would take another trip with their organization."

Things to Do

Subscriber only, things to do | st. paul’s union depot to receive historic locomotive visitor on final spike anniversary steam tour.

The CPKC Final Spike Anniversary Steam Tour marks the one year anniversary of driving the final spike into the railway network, connecting Canada to the U.S. and Mexico. The tour stop at Union Depot, 214 Fourth Street East, will include activities on the south lawn, concessions and vendors. The event is free to the public from 3 to 8 p.m.

The tour is the first time a steam-powered passenger train in North America has traveled from Canada through the U.S. and Mexico in a single trip, making 11 stops between Calgary and Mexico City. The 2816 Empress was built in 1930, and ran throughout the Great Depression and World War II. The locomotive is estimated to have run more than 3.5 million miles.

The 2816 has spent most of its life operating in Eastern Canada, and has visited the U.S. twice since restoration in 2001. The 4-6-4 Hudson type locomotive has a total operating weight of 643,000 pounds.

Additionally on Friday, Union Depot will be seeing the grand opening of Choo Choo Bob’s Train Store, the train-themed toy store located on Level 1, kicking off with a Traintastic Storytime starting at 10:30 a.m.

For more information, visit the Union Depot website .
