6 Reasons to Cruise Solo

Did you know that cruising is also becoming one of the fastest growing holiday options for singles? Yep! Whether you’re a single in search of a relaxing getaway or happily married and simply want to embark on a solo trip, cruising is a fantastic option.

Here’s 6 reasons why it rocks!

1. Cruise lines cater to solo travellers

Solo cruising is becoming increasingly popular, which goes hand in hand with lines starting to offer single travellers better options. Today’s ships offer single berths at wonderfully affordable prices, which means you can say goodbye to the singles surplus!

2. Meet new people

Whether you’re in search of friendship or romance, cruising solo is a great way to meet and mingle with new people. As well as group shore excursions and shared dinners, some ships also throw singles specific events.

3. Have it your way

When you travel solo you enjoy total control over your every move. Whether you want to sleep in, hit the cocktail bar or soak up the sun all day, you’re the boss! It’s the perfect excuse to relax, unwind and enjoy a little time all to yourself.

4. Enjoy exceptionally high standards

Forget roughing it simply because you’re travelling solo. When you cruise with luxury lines you’ll enjoy world class dining, entertainment and facilities. And you’ll never be short of company, as cruise ships are always full of like-minded travellers.

5. Rekindle your sense of adventure

Setting sail solo will give you a serious sense of achievement and independence. With a plethora of unique destinations to choose from, the world is at your fingertips. Plus, you’ll be able to satisfy your craving for adventure, without having to live out of a suitcase.

6. Stay safe

Some people are concerned that travelling alone is dangerous, and they’re not necessarily wrong. If you’re concerned about safety, cruising with a world class line is a terrific option. You’ll enjoy all the comforts of a luxury cruise ship, plus the excitement of exploring new ports in exotic destinations.
