Solo travel has seen a surge in popularity, offering adventurous souls the freedom to explore the world on their own terms. The allure of setting out alone—whether to remote polar regions or vibrant tropical destinations—provides a unique sense of independence and self-discovery.
Travelling solo allows you to connect more deeply with the environment, experience new cultures, and take on challenges that lead to personal growth. It’s not just about the destinations you visit, but the journey of discovering yourself along the way.
Solo travel provides a unique chance to step outside your comfort zone and fully engage with your surroundings. The freedom to create an itinerary that aligns with your own pace and interests— whether you feel like embarking on a rugged hike or spending the day on deck with a good book, solo travel provides a level of flexibility that allows you to make the most of every moment.
In remote regions like the Arctic and Antarctica, solo travel fosters a deeper connection with nature and the world around you. Free from the influence of others, you can explore at your own pace, make independent decisions, and build self-confidence. Navigating new destinations alone can be empowering, and the challenges you face—whether it’s starting a conversation with a fellow traveller or trying a new activity—often lead to profound personal growth.
Starting from the Arctic 2026 season, Aurora Expeditions is making solo travel more accessible and stress-free than ever before. We’re proud to introduce 10 dedicated solo cabins on every sailing, with no single supplement, giving solo travellers the opportunity to explore the polar regions without the added cost.
This new offer is designed to make solo travel more accessible and enjoyable, allowing you to embrace your adventure while staying in the comfort of your own private stateroom. Whether you’re seeking solitude or looking to meet like-minded travellers, you’ll have the freedom to immerse yourself fully in the experience, knowing you’ve got a cosy retreat waiting for you at the end of each day.
Every day brings a new adventure, from Zodiac excursions along towering ice cliffs to hikes through pristine landscapes teeming with wildlife. Our itineraries allow us to adapt to weather conditions and wildlife sightings, ensuring that no two days are the same. Whether you’re exploring remote, untouched corners of the world or marvelling at iconic natural wonders, the sense of discovery is ever-present.
Onboard, the relaxed, communal spaces—whether it’s the library, bar, or Citizen Science Centre—invite travellers to gather and share stories of the day’s experiences. Expedition cruising offers the perfect balance of adventure and comfort, with knowledgeable guides and experts enhancing your journey with fascinating insights into the wildlife, history, and ecosystems of the regions we explore.
With small groups and personalised attention from the expedition team, you’ll have the opportunity to explore the world’s wildest places while forming meaningful connections with like-minded adventurers.
