Cruises for solo travellers

For those who travel solo, few holidays offer as much choice as a cruise. If you are outgoing, there’s always someone to talk to; if you want privacy, you can be as sociable as you wish. And there will always be somewhere to see or something to do. If you'd like to receive the latest news and solo offers from the world's best cruise lines, as well as access to exclusive Mundy solo traveller events, then make sure you sign up to our Independent Travellers Club:

Our insight

Cruising for single travellers

Solo travel is a cause we champion at Mundy, lobbying for the best deals and a great onboard experience. We also carried out extensive research into the needs and preferences of our solo travellers and this resulted in a package of Mundy benefits, tailored to the needs of those who travel alone.

We have special events at our offices in Central London, a dedicated mailing list for offers and opportunities, and in-depth information about the best facilities to help you choose the perfect cruise line. (Whilst a cruise holiday may be perfect for solos, the right choice of ship can make a big difference). And because one of the pains of travelling alone is getting to your destination, we can provide all sorts of add-ons to make your travel experience easier, such as airport assistance, luggage forwarding, and private transfers and guides.

Some solo travellers prefer the flexibility of all-inclusive ships, taking away the embarrassment of returning the generosity of others over drinks, and that fuss about who will pick up the tab for wine at dinner. Open seating can be the perfect way to meet people, or you may prefer the opportunity to build relationships with fellow guests at fixed tables. You can also pick themed cruises for joint activities with like-minded individuals, to get to know others more easily.

So if you want the very best solo experience, call us and we can let you know which cruise lines currently give the best welcome to single guests: special cocktail parties, hosted tables and attractive fares are all indicators!

Cruise Lines

The best luxury cruise lines for single travellers

Silversea

Silversea brings a personal touch and Italian style to the hospitality on board, with a truly cosmopolitan and sophisticated passenger mix which provides a stimulating onboard experience.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises

Regent Seven Seas Cruises gives you a choice of small to medium sized ships, from the 490 guest Navigator to the world’s first all suite all balcony ships Seven Seas Mariner and Seven Seas Voyager, and the lavish new Seven Seas Explorer and Seven Seas Splendor.

Oceania Cruises

Whether you choose one of the classic smaller R class ships, or the purpose built slightly larger O class, you can expect the same levels of Oceania delivery, with a huge emphasis on excellent food, and fascinating worldwide itineraries which can be combined to create lengthy trips.

AmaWaterways

Choose from a range of engaging and immersive sailings, on board luxurious vessels that accommodate between 28 and 196 guests. Itineraries include all of Europe’s most popular rivers, as well as Asian voyages in Vietnam and Cambodia, and a particularly special cruise in Africa on the Chobe River.

Uniworld River Cruises

These award-winning and intimate vessels – with an average capacity of just 130 guests – are beautifully appointed in an English country house style, unsurprising given that Uniworld is a sister company to Red Carnation Hotels. They provide a truly luxurious European river cruise experience and offer a number of itineraries further afield, including India, China, Vietnam, Cambodia and Egypt.

Hebridean Island Cruises

This is a truly unique way to experience Scotland. The unpretentious little Hebridean Princess, inextricably linked to the Western Isles, is loved by all who sail on her - even Her Majesty is a fan! - while the recently acquired Lord of the Highlands brings the same intimacy and charm to the inland waters of the Caledonian Canal.

Ponant

Travelling with Ponant is cruising simultaneously at its most elegant and at its most adventurous – everything is about the relationship with nature. The name of the line itself refers to the setting of the sun, whilst the ships’ names evoke the winds, the hemispheres, the sun and the stars.

What our clients say

“I have been cruising since 1980 and find Mundy the best cruise specialists, they know the vessels they are recommending and listen to what you want.”
