Singles vacations ideal for over 40s

Our small group adventure vacations are perfect for single travellers in their 40s and other ages, whether you’re a seasoned solo traveller or this is your first singles vacation. You’ll be in great company on any of our tours. Our average small group size is just 11 people and usually includes around half solo travellers and the rest couples or friends travelling together, spanning a range of ages. So whether you’re looking for a walking vacation or a wildlife tour, a cycling vacation or a cultural trip, there is an adventure waiting for you.

Our trips attract people of all ages who love to explore, discover and share their love for travel. Yet our schedules are flexible enough that you can choose to do your own thing if you’d prefer. Enjoy your singles vacation for over 40s at your own pace. Our trips are graded from relaxed to full-on, so you can choose a trip that’s right for you, whether you like a busy itinerary or plenty of downtime to explore on your own.

You’ll have all the excitement of travelling solo but with the safety of travelling in a group. Plus, all the day-to-day planning has been taken care of by our expert local tour leaders who will help you get to the heart of your destination.

Whether you're an avid walker, a keen cyclist or always enjoy trying something new, at Explore we offer action-packed small group activity trips that make solo travel over 40 even more fun.

On our best-selling Toubkal Climb Moroccan trekking adventure, you'll be guided through lush forests and remote villages before embarking upon an ascent of Jebel Toubkal - North Africa's highest peak, from where you can take in the panoramic and breathtaking views of the High Atlas. Or if you like to stretch your legs but don't want to tackle a tricky incline, go On Foot in Northern Cyprus to follow trails through the Besparmak Mountains, and admire its beautiful flora and fauna, Crusader castles and majestic coastline.

Prefer to feel the wind in your hair on a bike? We offer many two wheeled-trips too, where we'll even provide your bike! Whatever level of cycling you feel ready to take on, whether that's a moderately challenging journey along Southeastern European roads as you Cycle Albania, or a breezy, picturesque cruise along Croatia's Dalmatian Coast - there's a cycling holiday to suit you. We also offer ebike options on some of our departure dates, meaning you can really savour the sweeping views as you simply glide along!
