New places • New faces • New friends Looking to take a holiday but have nobody to share the experience? Good Companions holidays are designed especially with you in mind. Many people on their own tell us they dearly want to get away for a holiday but can’t find a tour operator who really understands the needs of the solo traveller. Some say they didn’t fancy being alone on a coach full of couples and families. Many feel a holiday just isn’t the same without pals to share the fun. Others confide they find it hard to pluck up the confidence to introduce themselves to new people.

Good Companions holidays feature†: Return Select coach travel Dinner, bed and breakfast Welcome reception

For all these reasons we came up with Good Companions – holidays and excursions designed specifically for the single holidaymaker. On these tours our friendly host will invite you to a reception where you’ll be gently encouraged to meet and mingle with fellow travellers. Before long you’ll be laughing and relaxing in the company of newfound friends. What’s more, there are no annoying single room supplements to pay. We firmly believe no other holiday company works so hard for the mature solo traveller!
