Your trip · your pace

Solo weekend trip

A short solo trip gives you the freedom to choose your own pace, food and experiences. Good planning makes it easier to enjoy that flexibility.

Before you travel

Six steps to an easier solo trip

For a first solo trip, a city with a simple journey, clear public transport and a compact centre can make the experience easier.

Consider transport, opening hours and the journey back to the hotel in the evening. A good location may be worth more than the lowest room rate.

Send flight details, the hotel address and a simple itinerary to someone you trust. Consider agreeing when you will check in with each other.

One pre-booked activity gives the day an anchor without creating a packed schedule. Adapt the rest to your energy, the weather and your mood.

Keep power, internet access and more than one payment option available. Store a backup card and important details separately from what you use daily.

You do not need to join anything that feels wrong. Choose well-lit areas, use reputable transport and ask the accommodation for help when unsure.

Shape the day your way

Choose a market, museum or viewpoint and let the route there become part of the experience.

A guided walk, food class or small group tour can add company without making the complete trip social.

Leave room for a café, a book, a park or simply a break. The advantage of solo travel is being able to change the plan.
