Solo Traveler Hack: 5 Reasons to Join a Small Group Tour

Posted: April 4th, 2024 | Hanna Muth

Although traveling alone can be a liberating experience, there’s another option that offers safety, camaraderie, and convenience – booking a small group tour. Here are five reasons why joining a group hiking tour might be the ideal choice for solo travelers.

1. Safety and support

Solo travel may foster independence, but it also comes with many risks. When you join a group tour, you’ll benefit from the expertise of seasoned guides who prioritize your safety. From navigating challenging terrain to providing first aid assistance, having a guide will give you peace of mind throughout your journey, so you won’t need to worry about getting stuck in a tricky situation alone.

2. Meeting new people

One of the most rewarding aspects of group travel is the opportunity to create meaningful connections with other adventurers. By joining a group tour, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded individuals who share your passion for exploration. Whether you’re swapping stories around the campfire or conquering a summit together, the bonds you form with your fellow travelers can last a lifetime.

3. Expertly crafted itineraries

Planning a solo hiking trip can be daunting, with countless logistics to consider. Which hikes offer the best scenery? Which campgrounds or lodging will be comfortable and convenient? Do I have enough time to visit all of these places? When you book a group tour, all the hard work is done for you. Our expert team thoughtfully designs each itinerary, ensuring you experience the best that your destination has to offer.
