Solo Travellers
Voyages for Solo Travellers
If you’ve ever thought about taking an adventure on your own, you’re not alone.
Voyages with Aurora Expeditions are 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.
To support your solo travel adventures, from our 2026 Arctic and Beyond season, we will offer 10 dedicated solo cabins on every sailing, with no single supplement.*
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 with dedicated solo staterooms on every sailing from our 2026 Arctic and Beyond season, there has never been a better time to book your next adventure.

What our Solo Travellers Say
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. We offer a service that helps you find a like-minded traveller (or two) of the same gender to share your stateroom with. 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 stateroom (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.
