Riviera unveils eight new itineraries for solo travellers

Riviera Travel has announced the launch of eight new itineraries curated for solo travellers, as part of its new programme for 2019. 

The offering includes three new solo cruises and five new solo tours, spanning across the globe. From New Zealand to Egypt to the USA, the company?s solo travel programme has doubled since 2018, with 34 itineraries available for solo travellers now.

The itineraries aim to deliver authentic local experiences that let the holidaymakers delve into the history of the destinations. Each river cruise includes return flights or rail connections and transfers, tours and excursions with an expert tour manager and accommodation in luxurious cabins or suites on a full board basis. Each uniquely tailored tour includes return flights or rail connections, transfers, and excursions with expert guides and a dedicated tour manager.

Will Sarson, head of specialist product for the tour operator, said: ?There has been a real shift in attitude over the last few years, with travellers increasingly choosing to discover the joys of solo travel. Following this increased demand and by taking on the valuable feedback provided by our customers, Riviera Travel has more than doubled our solo travel programme in the last year. While we have always offered sole occupancy cabins and rooms on our tours and cruises, in 2017 we introduced our first Solo Travel programme offering eight escorted tours. Our solo offer has expanded rapidly and in 2019 we are proud to offer customers a total of 34 solo tours and cruises. There will also be a new dedicated solo travel brochure available to agents in early 2019.

Our new tours and cruises are carefully created for solo travellers to ensure that hotels are in the right location, meals are included at the right times to encourage the wider group to come together, and that there is choice and flexibility for individuals to tailor their experience according to their own interests and needs.?
