Solo Travellers
For many years Aurora Expeditions have provided ‘No Single Supplement’ options, allowing our passengers travelling alone the opportunity to join our voyages without the added expense of having to pay a single supplement. Making the ‘big trip’ on your own has never been easier and we believe our small group expeditions provide the key elements of a great expedition: adventure, fun and peace of mind.
Apart from providing security and peace of mind, our small group adventures provide an ideal opportunity to share experiences with your fellow travellers. Whether you’re exploring a historic site, enjoying a guided wildlife walk or reaching a summit, you will have the opportunity to enjoy the challenge alongside a small group of like-minded travel companions.
By their very nature, our expeditions attract people who have a passion for the natural world and enriching travel – seeing new places, enjoying new experiences and meeting new people. Whatever your age and however experienced or inexperienced a traveller you are, you will be more than welcome as a solo traveller on one of our small group tours. You may join the voyage alone, but by the end, you’ll feel as though you’re travelling with a group of friends.
What our Solo Travellers Say
“I travelled to Antarctica with Aurora Expeditions on the Polar Pioneer in 2013, it was the trip of a lifetime. I had such a wonderful
experience.”
Yvonne D.
“Loved it! I didn’t feel like it was a solo trip at all. The activities that were planned and the friendliness of the crew and other passengers was great. I still stay in touch with many today.”
Anon.
“I never felt alone! I loved every moment as a single person. The company, food and experiences and I shared a room which worked out perfectly well.”
Leone O.
“It was fantastic. I met other solo adventurers and hung out at the bar on the ship with them. I’m still friends with them almost a decade later.”
Nick D.
“I travelled to Antarctica in 2009/10. I was still on a high three months after the trip. I highly recommend solo traveller expeditions to anyone who asks. It’s a totally different but amazing experience. I still remember the most amazing kayaking trip. I’m looking forward to returning to visit South Georgia in 2022.”
Denise B.
“I’ve travelled solo to Antarctica. I must have liked it, I’ve done it three times!”

Frequently Asked Questions
That is fine. We offer the option to pay a 50% surcharge for a sole occupancy cabin (on top of the twin occupancy rate) unless you take advantage of one of our Go Solo & Save special offer expeditions listed above to receive the no solo supplements special.
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.
