The 13 best solo cruises for 2024 (no supplement fare).

Set sail for a solo adventure at sea.

The Best Solo Cruises

Relax by the pool, attend shows, dine with new friends and more on your next solo cruise.

Whether you're embarking on your first cruise alone or you've been on solo cruises before, single travelers will find more options than ever when it comes to cruising solo. Many cruise lines offer single staterooms with the same amenities as other cabins, at a price similar to what you'd pay with double occupancy fares. You'll also find special promotions where the single supplement fee is reduced or waived, making it more affordable to reserve a spacious stateroom or luxurious suite with even more amenities – including personalized butler service, an added perk of booking with many luxury lines .

If you're ready for a maritime adventure, an extended vacation or simply a quick getaway from home, these top cruise lines offer some of the best options for solo travelers on waterways around the world.

Lines with solo accommodations and waived fees

Launched in 2010, Norwegian Epic was the first cruise ship in the industry to feature studio accommodations for solo travelers. Norwegian Cruise Line offers this category on nine of the 19 ships in its fleet, including the newest ship, Norwegian Viva. These cabins, at an average size of 100 square feet, are designed and priced with the solo traveler in mind. They have no single supplements – and studio rooms on board Norwegian Bliss even boast virtual windows.

Guests of the studios get access to the private Studio Lounge. In this exclusive space, you can socialize with other solo travelers and enjoy complimentary refreshments. There are also singles meetups throughout the voyage and plenty of fun-filled onboard activities to mingle with like-minded cruisers. Solo travelers can check out all the fun for singles on Norwegian Viva this winter on a cruise to the Caribbean , or in spring 2024 as the ship sets sail for the Mediterranean .

MSC Cruises offers interior and balcony solo cabins for single cruisers on its Meraviglia-class ships: the MSC Meraviglia, Bellissima, Grandiosa, Virtuosa and the newest vessel in the fleet, MSC Euribia. The second-newest ship, MSC World Europa, has 28 cabins – 10 Studio Interior and 18 Studio Ocean View staterooms – designed specifically for solo travelers. MSC World America, set to debut in 2025, will also feature the solo studio staterooms.

During voyages with MSC Cruises , single cruisers are invited to a complimentary, hosted cocktail party to mix and mingle with other solo travelers. The daily program is also an excellent source to discover additional activities, entertainment and opportunities to meet other cruisers. You'll have onboard special events like the themed 70s-inspired Flower Party and the White Party, where the ship is decked out in festive white decor and guests don their best white attire. In addition, there are various sports tournaments, or you can show off your culinary expertise during a MasterChef competition.

MSC's Caribbean and Bahamas cruises departing from Miami and New York City feature an overnight visit to Ocean Cay, the line's private island and marine reserve. While there, singles can participate in fun-filled evening activities like a Champagne Sunset Cruise or a glow paddleboarding excursion in the lagoon, then attend the lively Luna Libre Party and the lighthouse show.

Holland America Line

Three of Holland America Line's newest ships each offer 12 solo cabins to accommodate single travelers: the Pinnacle-class Nieuw Amsterdam, Rotterdam and Konigsdam. These ocean view staterooms range in size from 127 to 172 square feet and feature the same amenities as the double occupancy cabins but with a double bed. The cruise line's Single Staterooms are priced for one person. If a guest chooses to book a different stateroom, single supplements for double occupancy cabins are as much as 100% over the standard fare, depending on the voyage and the cabin category.

Long committed to solo travelers, the line offers many activities where guests can meet other singles such as wine tastings, cocktail mixers, exercise classes, daily quizzes, sports challenges and more. If you're a solo traveler and a member of AARP, Holland America is now the exclusive cruise benefit provider to AARP's members. Solo cruisers will have access to an AARP member-only onboard credit that ranges from $50 to $200, depending on the itinerary and stateroom category.

For itineraries, Holland America's Alaska cruises and cruisetours are perfect for solo travelers, offering many opportunities to connect with fellow cruisers. Another favorite for singles is the line's fall voyages sailing from Boston to Québec City or Montreal.

Royal Caribbean International

Royal Caribbean International features studio staterooms on select ships that range in size from 101 to 199 square feet. These solo accommodations include interior rooms, virtual balcony staterooms and a super studio ocean view stateroom with a balcony. The cabins do not carry the single supplement fee singles encounter when booking other types of staterooms, making them an attractive option when traveling alone.

Once on board the ship, solo cruisers will have countless options to engage and socialize with other travelers. When it comes to dining with Royal Caribbean , make a reservation at the Japanese restaurant Teppanyaki for an entertaining meal with new friends, or join fellow foodies for the intimate Chef's Table experience (the dining venues vary by ship). Singles can also participate in onboard activities like trivia contests, drink seminars, escape rooms, dance classes and pool parties.

If you need more thrills to stay busy and to meet people, Royal Caribbean's ships feature world-class shows and entertainment alongside adrenaline-pumping rides and attractions. If you're sailing in the Caribbean, there are plenty of opportunities to meet and chat with other passengers at the line's private island, Perfect Day at CocoCay.

Atlas Ocean Voyages

Luxury line Atlas Ocean Voyages offers single cruisers 183 square feet of beautifully appointed space in solo accommodations that come without single supplement fees. These ocean view staterooms feature a queen bed, a panoramic picture window, a private spa bathroom with a rain shower and body jets, a stocked minifridge replenished daily with personal favorites, and other luxurious amenities. Single guests can also book other stateroom or suite categories with single supplements starting at 50% of the double occupancy price.

The line's three intimate yacht-style cruise ships – World Navigator, World Traveller and the new World Voyager, whose inaugural season begins in Antarctica in November 2023 – are all-inclusive . Meals at all the dining venues, premium beverages and wines, gratuities, culturally immersive excursions, and more are included in the fare. With fewer than 200 guests on board, there's an atmosphere of conviviality on these ships – especially when exploring remote destinations with like-minded and adventurous travelers during expeditions in Antarctica and the Arctic.

Once on board the vessel, check out the daily program for activities conducive to meeting others – like wine tastings, cocktail-making classes and more.

Avalon Waterways' river and small-ship cruises traverse waterways around the world, including in Europe, Asia, Africa and South America. The company waives the single supplement on a selection of staterooms, including its Panorama Suites, on select European and Asia departures. The company recommends booking early as the specially priced cabins do sell out. Solo travelers make up about 10% of the passengers on this river cruise line .

Avalon's fleet of Suite Ships operates in Europe and Southeast Asia and features cabins with a minimum of 172 square feet. About 80% of the staterooms are Panorama Suites, which have 200 feet of living space, beds with a view and the river cruise industry's only open-air balcony. With Avalon excursions, solo cruisers have opportunities to meet like-minded guests during immersive tours, cooking classes, wine tastings, yoga or fitness classes, biking or hiking trips, and more.

(Note that this pricing does not apply to certain stateroom categories and suites.)

The ultimate guide to solo cruising: Deals and best lines

Solo cruising is on the rise – research shows 45 per cent of Australians are looking for singles travel this year.

Cruise lines are racing to put out the best offers to lure solo cruisers. This means there are plenty of hot deals and lots to know for those looking for solo cruises.

Traditionally the barrier to solo cruising has been the steep costs of one person having to pay for a double cabin. However, many cruise lines are now putting out deals that reduce or even eliminate the single supplement. This makes solo cruises much more affordable.

Furthermore, some cruise ships have now fitted solo cabins. Solo guests can forget about wrestling with the supplement and just book a solo cabin.

Beyond this, some cruise lines have special lounges or activities for meeting other solo travellers. Cruise lines are fast realising the new wave of solo cruisers need to be catered for. 

Norwegian Cruise Line, who put a strong emphasis on catering for solo travellers, said they had been paying attention to research that was highlighting the rise of the single traveller.

Solo travellers not alone

Skyscanner research says 45% of Australians are interested in escaping solo in 2023. And 44% cite a solo travel trip as important for their wellness. 

Ben Angell, VP and Managing Director, Norwegian Cruise Line APAC says: “Cruising solo offers the ideal balance of adventure, independence, safety and security, with guests able to explore ports alone or join excursions with a community of like-minded people.

“NCL has always been at the forefront of solo cruising, and our new Prima Class ships are continuing to innovate and provide opportunities and experiences tailored to meet the needs of this growing guest sector.”

Cruise Passenger also recently covered the rise of solo cruising for women , another significant industry trend.

Celebrity Edge is one of the high-end ships ideal for solo cruises.

The best cruise lines for solo cruises 

Celebrity cruises .

Solo-traveller friendly staterooms: Available on Celebrity’s Edge Series ships, including Celebrity Edge which will be making its way to AUNZ in December this year. There are Single Staterooms with an Infinite Veranda.

Celebrity Beyond has 32 solo staterooms with an Infinite Veranda, as does the new Celebrity Ascent . The Celebrity Apex features 24, while Celebrity Edge i s home to 16 solo staterooms. Celebrity Silhouette will also have four inside single staterooms perfect for solo guests. More info here https://www.celebritycruises.com/au/things-to-do-onboard/staterooms/single-stateroom

These single staterooms start at 131 square feet, giving you plenty of space to move around.

Onboard networking: Celebrity has added new, dedicated events for solo travellers to their programs. This includes a gathering and dinner hosted by the activity team. Guests can check the time in their Celebrity App or Celebrity Today daily program and head for the Sky Lounge (on Millennium and Solstice-series ships). Or the luscious Eden on Edge-series ships, to meet fellow solo travellers.

The friendly Activity Team will help break the ice. There will also be a special solos’ table at dinner that night, and an un-hosted solos’ table every night thereafter. This is the perfect opportunity to get together with other people travelling solo. On the first night of each cruise, Celebrity will host a welcome party where all guests are invited to mingle. There’s also opportunities to connect with travellers with programs in the Fitness Centre, or mixology and cooking classes, and more. 

Royal Caribbean

Royal Caribbean has redesigned some of its ships to include solo cabins, which are now available in two categories: a superior ocean view with access to the balcony and a studio interior room with a virtual view. Unlike many other cruise lines, the beds provided in the solo cabins are in full size. 

Solo cabins don’t always have balconies. Instead, you may book an interior solo room with a virtual balcony, which is a digital window that displays ocean views. 

For cruises to and from Australia, Royal Caribbean offers single staterooms on Ovation of the Seas, Serenade of the Seas, and Radiance of the Seas. 

Singles-friendly activities such as cooking classes, wine tastings, and scuba diving training are available. For meals, passengers cruising alone can also request to either go solo for some “me” time, or request to join a larger group. 

One of the features of a Royal Caribbean ship is its several singles cabins.

Norwegian Cruise Line

NCL launched its first solo cabins on board Norwegian Epic in 2010. Today the cruise line offers dedicated solo accommodation options on nine ships , including its new Prima class vessels, Norwegian Prima and Norwegian Viva .

NCL’s solo Studios are cleverly designed to maximise storage space. All solo accommodation centred around the Studio Lounge. It includes a dedicated bar and TV area where solo travellers can meet and mingle.

NCL is the only cruise line to offer an exclusive lounge for solo cruisers keen to meet and relax with their fellow adventurers. Accessible by a dedicated key card, Studio Lounge provides a home-away-from home for solo guests who can unwind in a laidback environment offering complimentary refreshments, room service and a big-screen TV to watch movies with neighbouring Studio accommodation travellers. 

Each NCL sailing also includes social activities coordinated by cruise staff such as hosted singles meet-ups, and opportunities to get together with other solo travellers to attend Broadway-style shows, participate in game shows, have a laugh at comedy clubs, join fitness classes or get involved in fun-filled outdoor activities such as sky-high slides, racetracks, mini-golf, and casinos, making it easy to mingle and make memories with new friends on board. 

Virgin Voyages

Virgin Voyages has been a heavy promoter of solo travel in its early years as a cruise line.

The cruise line offers many activities for solos, including a “grog walk” (pub crawl) through all the different bars on the ship. At the end of the walk diners will get to shared table restaurant Gunbae, where they will gather around and dine together.

The cruise line consolidated this attitude by removing the single supplement on a range of 2023 European cruises.

Princess Cruises 

Princess Cruises offers special rates for single voyages, without the supplement. Special cabins for solo travellers aren’t currently available aboard Princess ships.

The line also hosts singles nights, including evening cocktail parties and other singles events. You can also join group events, like yoga, cooking classes or even wine tastings.

Princess Cruises offers relaxing spa treatment for guests.

Oceania Cruises

Oceania Cruises has witnessed a post-pandemic boom rise in the demand for solo travel. They are currently offering a total of 62 staterooms dedicated to solo travellers across its fleet of small, luxurious ships. Six more are scheduled to be added by 2025. 

This includes six new concierge level veranda staterooms dedicated to solo travellers on the Vista . The ship offers the largest standard staterooms at sea at more than 26 square metres. 

There are also 56 staterooms for solo travellers available across Oceania Cruises’ four Regatta Class ships. Each debuted 14 Solo Oceanview Staterooms in 2022. 

Vista’s sister ship, Allura , launches in 2025.Her inaugural season on sale now. She will also have six staterooms dedicated to solo travellers . 

For solo travellers, Cunard has redesigned the Queen Mary 2 to add 15 staterooms. The spaces were carved out from the former art gallery and casino. The oceanview cabins are spacious with a single bed, a sitting area, a writing desk, an ensuite bathroom with a shower and a mini-fridge. Solo cabins are also available onboard Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth .

Cunard is best known for its gala nights where you will be invited via formal invitation delivered to your stateroom. Tthe dress code is always revealed in advance of sailing so you can prepare.

Seabourn has special staterooms that are luxurious and intimate designed for sophisticated solo travellers, according to its website. 

One of the highlights of solo travelling with Seabourn is the Retreat. It is a serene area of the ship, located in a distinctive flower-shaped canopy. The “single’s sanctuary” is ringed with 15 private cabanas designed as individual luxury living rooms. Inside, is a large HD flat-screen TV and a refrigerator stocked with your selection of drinks. 

A Spa Treatment Cabana is also available for guests to enjoy personalised spa services, subject to availability.

The Kimberley is one of the best places to go on vacation.

The beauty of booking a solo cabin with Ponant is that the ships are luxurious. There are at least 92 staterooms and suites, and most have balcony access. So for solo travellers looking for a more intimate cruising experience, Ponant is a good choice. 

If you are looking to meet nature-loving and adventurous solo travellers, you can join the National Geographic excursions. You will be guided by professionals and a team of Nat Geo specialists. 

P&O Cruises Australia

P&O Cruises Australia has several ships with solo staterooms. However, the availability of interior, oceanview and balcony cabins are limited and will depend on the ship you have selected. Arcadia has the biggest interior and balcony cabins. In selected cruises, P&O ships have a secluded area called The Oasis.

Other P&O ships with solo cabins include Brittania, Azura, Ventura, Iona, and Oriana. Aurora was remodelled in 2019 to become an adults-only ship. 

Solo staterooms on P&O Cruises are a bit smaller compared to double-occupancy cabins but offer the same amenities. Please also take note that solo cabins only have showers and single beds. 

Viking Cruises

All Viking ships are adults-only so solo travellers are a major part of the demographics onboard. 

Viking organises specific solo and single activities such as art performances, cooking lessons and lectures. But on shore, the line offers museum visits with other solo travellers.

Holland America Line

Holland America Line offers the Single Traveller’s Program with events such as dance classes, cocktail parties and mixers. There are more onboard activities and excursions that are ideal for singles who want to meet other people.

The staterooms on Nieuw Statendam or Koningsdam are larger compared to other ship. They are equipped with full-sized bed, ensuite bathroom and ocean views.

Activities for solo travellers are available. Just explore the Explorations Central, which is Holland America Line’s exclusive destination programming. It features indispensable travel resources and resources to help you engage with onboard experts and locals.

Holland America Line also highlights itineraries for guests who cruise alone.

I have done over 1000 sea days with my husband on Princess, RCI, HAL, NCL, CELEBRITY,P&O, in all grades of cabins. I have got good loyalty levels on these lines , but now that I am solo traveller, it is very difficult to get reasonably priced cabins. There are so few solo cabins on the ships that do have them, that they sell out before you can purchase one. I am 77, independent, and would love to do more cruises, IF the pricing was better. This year I was lucky enough to get on Ovation of the Seas twice including repositioning cruise from Sydney to Hawaii in April/May. Prices were good for Studio Balcony , but ship is bigger than I would like. Prefer 2000 -3000 passengers. I have 2 booked on Celebrity Edge Jan 2024 & Jan 2025 but they are much more expensive. Happy to travel on my own, as I join in with trivia etc and am never lonely. Just disappointed with being penalised for being a widow and travelling on my own. I want to get more in before I turn 80 and travel insurance makes it even more expensive for me. What are other travellers thoughts?

Well it’s about time, I have great difficulty understanding why no single supplement is available, I spend nearly twice as much as a couple.

Cruising as a Single can be a very rewarding experience, and not as lonely as some people would think. With so much to do onboard you will never be bored or feel alone. You can decide whether you want to meet new people or simply go your own way. Either way, it can be a far more adventurous holiday than spending it at a single destination.

Obviously the costs are going to be a little more expensive than sharing the cabin, however at Crazy Cruises we have some great singles cruise deals to get you away as soon as humanly possible!

Best Cruise Ships for Singles

Why go on a cruise as a single.

As a single, you will have the ability to do what you want, when you want - without having to take into account anyone else! This is not selfish, it's just something alot of us need at times and can be a very rewarding experience to 'find yourself' and enjoy your own company.

Singles holidays can help you to 'Escape' - whether you are escaping a broken relationship, dealing with grief, or simply just want a holiday to escape work - a Singles cruise can really help recharge the batteries and give you the time and space that we all need sometimes.

Cruise ships are controlled, secure environments, hence single travellers can have the peace of mind to feel safe onboard.

When booking a cruise you won't need to worry about planning your day, whether that be where to eat, where to stay, what to do, where to go. With everything at your fingertips, you won't need to think about a single thing! No need to pay for extras as all costs are usually included in your cruise fare.

A cruise is a perfect way to explore the world and reach destinations you never thought possible. From Caribbean to the Mediterranean, New Zealand or a simple cruise around Australia - we have the perfect cruise for you. Cruise ships will also have a number of extra excursions you are able to opt into - so go out, explore and be as adventurous as you feel you want to be!

Because cruise ships offer Communal Dining, taking a singles cruise means you will never have to eat alone. As a group experience you can sometimes request to dine with other solo cruisers.

Cruises are all about fun, and all cruise ships are built around making sure everyone will enjoy the ride whether you are married, single, a family or a group of friends. Activites and Entertainment onboard some of our partner ships may include rock climbing, ice skating, mini golf, wave pools, shopping, theatre shows, movies, dancing, singing and casinos.

Sooth your mind and body with some peaceful reflection and a luxurious spa treatment. Most cruise ships are well equiped with some of the best rejuvenation spas one can find, and fully qualified massage professionals. Lie back and experience everything from luxurious facials to pamper sessions and aromatherpy massages.

If you're allocating some time to get your fitness regime back in order then a singles cruises is a perfect option to get you back in shape. With starte of the art cardiovascular machines, free weights and classes from Yoga to Pilates, spinning and boxing a fitness cruise could be just what the doctor ordered.

Choosing the right Singles Cruise

Taking a cruise as a single may cost more than sharing, however you only live once! Cruise lines don't usually offer cabins for one person, so they will give you the double occupancy cabin at a higher rate than the per person cruise cost. This is known as the single supplement - which can range between an extra 10% up to possibly 100% of the cruise fare. Some cruise liners publish deals with low single supplements.

Small cruise ships are perfect for single cruisers as they are usually more closed physically but often more social. The smaller amount of people often means smaller excursion numbers offshore hence it may be easier to meet new people and make new friends.

Young or in your Senior Years - You can be a Single Traveller at any age!

Whether you are a Young Adult, a middle aged Single traveller, or a Senior citizen wanting the trip of a lifetime, a cruise holiday is bound to be a rewarding experience.

In summary, don't be put off by the size of the cruise ship, the potential noise from kids or that voice in your head that keeps saying 'NO'. Put yourself out there, go and explore and do something you didn't think you could do. You may look back on a singles cruise as the trip of a lifetime - and who knows, you may not be single for much longer!

Top 5 cruises for solo travellers

Best single cruises with RACV’s Travel Partners

I'm interested in..

  •   Benefits of solo cruises
  •   Top 5 cruises
  •   How to prepare

Solo cruising is a trend that’s here to stay. And in response, cruise lines are becoming increasingly more inclusive with rooms, amenities, activities, and on-board experiences designed especially for solo and singles cruises.

Taking yourself on an adventure at sea makes you the captain of your own ship — you can do what you want, when you want. And no matter what route you’re on, it’s the perfect opportunity to be fully present in every moment, whether you’re mingling with like-minded people or reconnecting with yourself over a quiet sunset drink. 

Get to know what cruising solo is all about with the best cruises for solo travellers from our trusted travel partners .

Why go on a solo travellers cruise

There are so many great benefits of embarking on a solo traveller cruise, including:

  • Freedom to do what you want, when you want
  • Plenty of “me time” to rejuvenate
  • Communal dining so your meals will always be shared with like-minded people
  • Solo travellers get peace when it comes to safety
  • Countless activities and excursions to keep you busy

If you’re looking for your next adventure, embarking on a solo travellers cruise on one of these top five solo cruises could be where it all starts!

Solo supplements explained

Embarking on a cruise on your own is typically more expensive (per person) than sharing your cabin with a friend.

This is because cruise lines build their cabins assuming two people will share them.

Instead of sharing the cost of a cabin with another traveller, a Solo Traveller pays a supplement for Solo use. 

1. Oceania Cruises

With small and easy to navigate ships, Oceana Cruises is known for its warm and welcoming on-board atmosphere, appealing to experienced and first-time solo travellers alike. 

Explore new places independently or on excursions with like-minded guests. With regular cocktail receptions and mixed dining tables, new faces will become friends in no time. 

  • Suitable for: singles seeking small vessel cruises which promise great food and indulgent culinary experiences.  
  • Solo perks: Solo staterooms and a program of solo-cruiser gatherings. 
  • Single supplements: Yes, but lower on average than other cruise lines.

2. Holland America Line

Whichever one of Holland America’s cruises has your name on it, the cruise line prides itself on catering for every type of solo traveller, giving you the freedom to choose your own adventure day by day.

There are a whole host of activities on offer, from competitive sports challenges and trivia nights, to lectures and cooking demonstrations to help you recalibrate and capitalise on your ‘me’ time. 

  • Suitable for: 50+ singles looking for premium experience at a mid-range price point.

How to prepare for your cruise

Before you and your set sail  on a cruise of a lifetime there are a few things you’ll need to take care of:

  • Make sure you’ve  packed all the essentials including your travel documentation , passports and visas
  • Check out your  shore excursions  and prebook if you can,
  • Take out  travel insurance ,
  • Notify your bank that you’ll be travelling overseas. 

Why do I need travel insurance

Travelling solo gives you the freedom and flexibility to travel however you want. However, it also means you won’t have someone you know with you to help in an emergency situation. This is why  travel insurance  is such an essential part of your next singles cruise.

Travel insurance that covers cruises will protect your luggage on board, provide cancellation cover if the unexpected happens and cover emergency and medical expenses. Most importantly though, it gives you peace of mind, so that you can enjoy your trip without worrying about the ‘what ifs’.

Wherever your next cruise adventure takes you, be sure to pack  travel insurance . RACV offers a 3 international Travel Insurance plans so you can choose the level that suits your travel plans. All plans include access to 24/7 overseas emergency assistance and international travel insurance   policies to suit every solo traveller, offering you the security and insurance cover you need wherever you are heading.

Expedition Cruising for Solo Travellers

If you’ve ever thought about taking an adventure on your own, you’re not alone.

Expedition cruising is such a fantastic choice for solo travellers, giving you the chance to experience the world’s most remote and incredible destinations with like-minded travellers and our  expert guides , while on board our small, social and welcoming  ships .

Our landings and activities are all conducted in small groups. You will be able to explore at your own pace, pushing your own limits with adventure. You will be surrounded by fellow expeditioners with a shared spirit of adventure, having an amazing experience, making new friends – and the memories will be yours to keep.

Aurora Expeditions welcomes solo travellers. Whether you choose solo accommodation or if you would like to share accommodation with another expeditioner of the same gender, we will be happy to try to make it happen for you. And on our newest small ship, Douglas Mawson , we have dedicated solo cabins available.

Solo Traveller Offers

Enjoy no single supplements on select 2024 arctic voyages.

Go solo and save! With the single supplement removed across some of our most popular voyages in the Arctic, there’s never been a better time to embrace solo travel with Aurora Expeditions.

Whether you cruise the incomparable glaciers of  Greenland , visit  Svalbard  for its wildlife-spotting opportunities, or explore the hidden passageways of the  Northwest Passage , the Arctic offers unparalleled encounters with the natural world at its most rugged and untamed.

Whatever you choose, our new offer allows you to experience the wonders of these regions on new purpose-built small ships, in the company of like-minded explorers who share your wanderlust and passion for the natural world – all while enjoying the freedom of solo travel.

If you would rather have a cabin all to yourself, you can pay a 50% surcharge and it’s all yours! This way, you can explore endlessly at your own pace. This option can be combined with other offers and discounts.

Frequently Asked Questions

One of the major barriers for solo travellers are ‘single supplements’, or additional charges because you are travelling alone. When travelling with Aurora Expeditions, you won’t need to worry about these thanks to our cabin-mate finding service. Solo travellers who are happy to share can take advantage of our informal cabin-mate finding service that matches you with a cabin mate (or two) of the same gender. This way you can avoid paying any extra single supplements during your voyage with us.

That is fine. We offer the option to pay a 50% surcharge for a sole occupancy cabin (on top of the twin occupancy rate).

On our expeditions, the average ratio between solo travellers and others (whether couples or friends) is approximately 30:70. However, this varies. If you are keen to know more about the others booked on your specific voyage, talk to one of our Expedition Experts for more details. We are always keen to help ensure you are booked on the most suitable voyage for you.

Generally, the split between women and men travelling solo on our trips is 50:50, however in recent years there has been a slight rise in the number of female solo travellers. If you’d like to know more about the others booked on your specific voyage, talk to our Expedition Experts today.

The age groups of passengers on our voyages vary hugely. Traditionally the majority of passengers have been over 50, however in recent years we have seen an increase in younger guests; particularly with the lure of our adventure activities, photography workshops, adding voyages to a round-the-world trip etc. We would say expect the age range to be diverse & rest assured that a good, mixed range of ages on the expedition makes the experience all the more fun.

Dedicated staterooms

Onboard Oceania Cruises’ new ship , Vista, solo cruisers will have more accommodation options. The cruise line has met increasing consumer demand by accommodating single travellers as the trend for solo cruising continues to rise. The staterooms have been designed exclusively with solo traveller needs in mind; independent travellers can expect a spacious outlook which includes a seating area overlooking the private veranda, a separate sleeping area, and copious amounts of storage space. An added bonus? Solo travellers also get keycard access to the exclusive Concierge Lounge, which is usually reserved for Concierge Level Veranda Stateroom guests and above. Already, the solo staterooms are proving a popular choice, with all fully booked for Vista’s inaugural season in 2023. According to Jason Worth, Vice President of Oceania Cruises, Australia and New Zealand, the line is in discussions to see how it can accommodate even more solo staterooms onboard new ships in the future.

COMMENTS

  1. Solo Cruise Deals

    So, if there is only one person in the cabin the cruise line only takes in HALF of what it normally would, which is why a solo traveler often pays a "200% single supplement." (Essentially, the solo traveler pays for both spaces in the cabin.) Therefore, a favorable single supplement for a solo traveler is 125% or 150%.
