Solo Travel!

See the world through your eyes, your story, your solo travel adventure.

Solo Travel!

Independent adventures

Travelling on your own, but never alone.

Whether you’re flying solo by choice, ticking off a bucket list while your partner stays home, or simply craving some ‘me time’ with the option of great company along the way, we’ve got you.

Our independent travel options are perfect for those who want to explore the world on their own terms – with the freedom to set your pace, plus the comfort of a group when you want it. You might be keen on a guided small group tour, a women-only journey, a cruise with no single supplement, or a tailored trip with your own space at the end of each magical day. However you want to travel, we’ll match you with the experience that makes it feel easy, safe and unforgettable.

From culinary walking tours through Italy, to sailing in Croatia, to dancing across the temples of Thailand, these trips are made for connection – with places, with people, and most importantly, with yourself.

There are a variety of tours, cruises and experiences that cater for those travelling on your own. Check out some of our favourites solo deals or holidays below!

So go on, plan that big trip. Just for you.

CHOOSE THE WAY YOU TRAVEL

Your own room, no extra cost

Join tours designed just for solo travellers—your own room, no single supplement. Travel solo, stay social, and connect with like-minded explorers on dedicated departures.

Happy to share

Skip the single supplement by sharing a room with a same-gender traveller on select tours. It’s a great way to save—and maybe meet your travel twin along the way.

Your own space, your own pace

Prefer the comfort of your own room? Choose the single supplement option—join the group by day, unwind in your private retreat by night.

Still deciding what’s right for you?

We’ve been matching travelers with their perfect trip for over 35 years – and we’d love to help you find yours. Let’s chat about your independent adventure!

After 30 years selling travel, its still a buzz creating fabulous holidays, watching my clients anticipation and being a part of the planning, knowing the excitement they have towards their journey and of course hearing all about it when they return ... It's almost as good as being on the trip with them! 

Travel has really changed over the last few years, so let me help you navigate this new travel era, and create a holiday to remember, with the backing of an incredible House of Travel team.

House of Travel Wanaka

Hi, I’m Megan! I’ve spent over 13 years in the travel industry, helping people plan trips that are exciting, enriching, and full of unforgettable moments. I’m all about finding experiences that are a little different—whether it’s an adventurous trek, a hidden gem, or a relaxing escape.

Having lived and worked overseas, I’ve gained a lot of insight into what makes travel so special. I love discovering new places and connecting with locals, and I’m always on the lookout for unique experiences that you won’t find in typical guidebooks. My goal is to help you explore the world in a way that feels personal and meaningful, no matter where you’re headed.

When I’m not helping others plan their travels, you’ll likely find me exploring new destinations with my family, seeking out adventures, and getting inspired by the world around me. Let’s work together to plan your next journey, whether it’s a relaxing getaway, a cultural immersion, or a thrilling adventure—you’ll be in great hands!

I’m Natalia - Travel Fairy!? 

I love crafting trips that blend discovery, comfort, and a little bit of magic.

My initial introduction to the world of travel was becoming a flight attendant after my graduation many moons ago! This gave me first-hand knowledge of flights, airlines and fuelled my own love of travel alongside other travellers.

I’ve visited more than 30 countries, lived in Russia, Thailand, and India,  and travelled widely across Europe and Asia. Each experience has helped me become familiar with both budget and luxury styles of travel (and everything in between!).

As a mum of two, I’m also an expert in travelling with children from toddlers to teens, and I know how to make those trips smooth and enjoyable to all!

With so many years in customer service and the travel industry, I understand and I’m attentive to my clients’ needs and preferences, creating journeys that match their personality and style of travel — from solo travellers and couples to families and all kinds of groups.

I see every journey as a beautiful puzzle. With care and attention, I bring all the pieces together to create your seamless and unforgettable experience.

So, whether you are planning a family holiday, peaceful escapes, or a once-in-a-lifetime journey, I’d love to help.  

Let’s have some fun & bring your travel dreams to life together!
