We’ve all been there – you’re itching for a vacation but everyone you know seems to be unavailable. Your best friend is out of PTO, your family is set to hit the slopes of Telluride (but you despise snow) and your college roommate doesn’t have a passport.
Fear not, your best travel companion is staring at you in the mirror. Solo travel can seem intimidating, but hey, if Amelia Earhart could fly solo across the Atlantic in 1932, we’re confident you can find your way around a new country on your own.

White Water and Wine in France
Sure, you can spend your trip to France eating baguettes and cheese, but you’re on a solo travel mission to find the biggest adventure around.

Pamper Yourself in Thailand
What better place to get a Thai massage than Thailand? Stay just outside of Bangkok to avoid the hustle of the city and find your oasis in this beautiful country. Indulge in a decadent experience (without the decadent prices) with a massage at Lavana Bangkok, a spa offering an array of treatments. We suggest asking for the herbal ball, a traditional Thai massage tool made of steaming herbs tightly wrapped in a warm towel and used to ease stress in the body.
Get Beached in BVI
Crystal blue waters and white sand beaches more your pace? Consider a British Virgin Islands getaway. Visit the natural baths on Virgin Gorda and climb through crevices to reach Devil’s Bay.
