Singles Travel International
Creating life-changing experiences and unique opportunities to meet the world – together!

What would you rather do? See the world alone or enjoy the action in the company of fun loving singles with the same interests?

It’s all possible once you decide to take the first step. Thousands just like you are sitting in front of the computer thinking about it. Many have joined the community and are talking online, BUT, there is nothing better than meeting in person and taking in the spectacular sights with your own eyes.

SoloMate Travel – First-Class Trips

The folks at SoloMate Travel understand that it can be hard for singles to find people to travel with. "That's why," says founder Andrea Leber, "I started SoloMate Travel, so that singles could enjoy the hassle-free experience of a preplanned, escorted trip with 6 to 14 like-minded travel chums. A small group allows us to see more and do more with a greater feeling of friendship. We pride ourselves that many clients return for new adventures with us."

While "first class" is top priority, travelers looking for the most cost effective holiday may save money with SoloMate's guaranteed room-share program, yet anyone wanting a private room always has the choice of selecting the single occupancy option, which Leber has negotiated to the lowest possible price. In choosing SoloMate as a travel partner, solos may rest assured that they are joining one of the most exclusive singles vacations on the market. "That's a promise," says Leber.

The aim at Singles Travel Company is to provide great vacation experiences, both budget and first class, to destinations around the world. Mainly, trips are designed for singles aged from late 30s through 60s, but there are also groups assigned specifically to the under 30s.
