Our Solo Traveller Supplement Offers

If you’ve been dreaming of taking that once-in-a-lifetime journey to the Arctic or Antarctica, but worry that travelling as a solo traveller will be prohibitively expensive, we’ve got great news. While many operators charge a single supplement simply for travelling alone, we believe solo travellers shouldn’t have to compromise - or pay more - to experience the world’s most extraordinary destinations.

That’s why we offer a selection of no single supplement and reduced single supplement options across a range of our polar expeditions, available with selected partners and on chosen departures. These offers allow you to enjoy your own private cabin without the additional cost, making it easier to travel independently while still benefiting from expert guides, small-ship experiences and the camaraderie of like-minded explorers. It’s the perfect way to tick the Arctic or Antarctica off your bucket list - on your own terms.

Speak to our Polar Specialists for more information on these incredible offers for solo travellers!
