Europe Tours for Solo Travelers
Solo travelers often choose the Amsterdam to Rome tour for the mix of famous sights and free time. TourRadar travelers say the guides make it easy to feel part of the group right from the start. You might spend your morning touring Krakow's UNESCO-listed Old Town with your group, then head out on your own in the afternoon to explore hidden alleys and cafes. Many travelers describe making fast friends over cruising Amsterdam's canals, long dinners in Munich's lively beer halls, and easy evening strolls through Rome's piazzas.

What people love about touring Europe solo
- Small Group: Imperial Cities and Austrian Alps from Belgrade
I highly recommend this Eastern Europe Tour through Serbia Tours. It was so amazing and comfortable tour. As if I was with my family travelling around. We were only 5 in the van as tourists. After lectures on the places we visited, Slovo gave us the free time to explore on our own which was really great. Slovo is like a brother to us. He was our tour guide, lecturer, helper, cameraman, baggage carrier, security guide, and mentor. We visited 8 countries with the affordable price. Continental meals were good for the breakfasts and had 2 dinners. Holiday Inn Resort staff at Belgrade were amazing but the staff in Hungary hotel was not that so good. I had skin allergies on the 6th day maybe insect bites, bed linens or allergy to eggs but still manageable that I really felt relaxed and enjoyed. Thank you Serbia Tours for an amazing tour. SLOVO, we will miss you brother.

We had an excellent tour guide named Suriaj who was very kind and knowledgeable. Very personable. Very patient. A FANTABULOUS personality. Keep up the great work Suri! Wakey wakes hahaha
We were a group of 5 Australians who joined the perfect tour called the Balkan Experience, operated by Victor Tours, though we booked through TourRadar who had a special rate at the time we booked. This 14-day tour covered seven Balkan countries: Serbia, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia & Herzegovina, and Croatia. Our guide, Stefan was the best guide, we've experienced as long time global travellers. He is knowledgeable, articulate and well travelled. Sasha, our bus driver, was also amazing; super friendly, stern with the border control guards, and provided comfortable, safe and clean transport the entire trip. The itinerary had a wide range of interesting activities covering something for every type of person; relaxed free time, beautiful countryside scenery, fantastic centre of town hotels, history, food, wine, art, lakes, mountains, cities, culture galour! The tour had the perfect blend of organised short walking tours, all hotels and breakfast included, mostly half day or less of driving between stops, a couple of 2 night stays and plenty of recommendations provided by Sasha and Stefan of where to eat and what to see during our free time each day. The entire trip was so relaxing, safe, stress free thanks to a well planned itinerary and expert guide and driver, and there was epic amounts of learning about each country and historical connections with each other. Most importantly, the tour was lots of fun and fantastic value for money. We travelled 12 - 25 April - spring time - which was the perfect time of year for this area. We experienced 1 warm day and 1 day of rain. The weather was spot on, everywhere was lush green and throughout spring flowers in the cities and across the country landscapes were picturesque. The other people on this tour were singles and couples, making up a total of 10 on tour. Don't look any further - book yourself onto this tour today!

What our customers ask about Europe Tours for Solo Travelers
Which European destinations are most welcoming for solo travelers on guided tours?
Cities like Berlin Prague and Budapest stand out as friendly destinations for people traveling alone. Their safe neighborhoods inviting café scenes and lively nightlife make it natural to meet others. The charming Baltic capitals - Tallinn Riga and Vilnius - offer welcoming Old Towns where group activities bring people together. In Prague you can join social pub crawls that wind through historic beer halls. Budapest's thermal baths create relaxed settings where conversations flow easily. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The walking tours in each city made it so easy to chat with others while exploring amazing places together."
Are there any special discounts or deals for solo travelers in Europe?
Look for "no single supplement" promotions on certain departure dates especially during quieter travel months like March-April and October-November. Some tours cut the single supplement cost by up to 50%. When you book far ahead (6+ months) you can often save $200-400 USD. As stated by a TourRadar reviewer: "I got a great early bird deal booking my solo trip to the Balkans 8 months ahead."
How do room arrangements work for solo travelers who don't want to pay a single supplement?
The tour pairs you with another traveler of the same gender in twin rooms at places like the Ibis La Defense in Paris or Hotel Duo in Prague. About 31% of solo travelers choose this shared setup according to TourRadar data. A TourRadar traveler noted "The tour company was great at matching compatible roommates." For those wanting privacy single rooms cost extra ($500-800 USD) when available. Tour operators handle all room arrangements with care making sure everyone is comfortable.
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to join European tours?
The peak season runs May through September with September drawing the most solo travelers - around 150 bookings. The pleasant weather and abundance of group activities and festivals create an ideal social atmosphere. A TourRadar traveler noted "September was perfect - great weather and lots of other solo travelers." April and October offer good value with smaller but steady group sizes. Places like the Hotel Massimo d'Azeglio in Tuscany also tend to be less crowded these months.
What activities are best for meeting other solo travelers on the tour?
Group dinners walking tours and optional excursions naturally bring people together. Popular social activities include wine tasting in the Rhine Valley gondola rides in Venice and fondue dinners in the Swiss Alps. A TourRadar traveler shared "The optional activities were where I really bonded with others in the group." Evening events like Paris cabaret shows or Prague folk dinners also help break the ice. Most tours kick off with welcome gatherings at hotels like the Radisson Blu Amsterdam where connections start forming right away.
