"I never felt alone! I loved every moment as a single person: The company, food and experiences. I shared a room which worked out perfectly well."
If you’ve ever thought about taking an adventure on your own, you’re not alone.
Voyages with Aurora Expeditions are such a fantastic choice for solo travelers, giving you the chance to experience the world’s most remote and incredible destinations with like-minded travelers and our expert guides, while on board our small, social and welcoming ships.
To support your solo travel adventures our 2026 Arctic and Beyond & 2026-27 Antarctica seasons will offer 10 dedicated solo cabins on every sailing, with no single supplement.*
Our landings and activities are all conducted in small groups. You will be able to explore at your own pace, pushing your own limits with adventure. You will be surrounded by fellow expeditioners with a shared spirit of adventure, having an amazing experience, making new friends – and the memories will be yours to keep.
Aurora Expeditions welcomes solo travelers. Whether you choose solo accommodation or if you would like to share accommodation with another expeditioner of the same gender, we will be happy to try to make it happen for you. And with dedicated solo staterooms on every sailing from our 2026 Arctic and Beyond season, there has never been a better time to book your next adventure.
Adventure on your own terms, discovering the world’s most remote and breathtaking destinations.
With the single supplement removed from select 2025 & 2026 Polar voyages*, now is the perfect time to embark on the adventure of a lifetime.
Share your experience, but not your stateroom. Experience the world’s most remote and incredible destinations with like-minded travelers, in the comfort of your private stateroom. To support your solo travel adventures our 2026 Arctic and Beyond & 2026-27 Antarctica seasons will offer 10 dedicated solo cabins on every sailing, with no single supplement.†
Save the solo supplement and we’ll pair you with a like-minded traveler based on gender and your selected stateroom category. If we’re unable to find you someone to share with, the solo supplement is waived. This option can be combined with other offers and discounts.
If you would like a specific stateroom all to yourself, you can pay a 50% surcharge and it’s all yours! This way, you can explore endlessly at your own pace. This option can be combined with other offers and discounts.
How does Aurora Expeditions support solo travelers looking to share a stateroom?
One of the major barriers for solo travelers are ‘single supplements’, or additional charges because you are traveling alone. When traveling with Aurora Expeditions, you won’t need to worry about these. We offer a service that helps you find a like-minded traveler (or two) of the same gender to share your stateroom with. This way you can avoid paying any extra single supplements during your voyage with us.
What if I want my own private stateroom?
That is fine. We offer the option to pay a 50% surcharge for a sole occupancy stateroom (on top of the twin occupancy rate).
Will the group be full of couples or solo travelers?
On our expeditions, the average ratio between solo travelers and others (whether couples or friends) is approximately 30:70. However, this varies. If you are keen to know more about the others booked on your specific voyage, talk to one of our Expedition Experts for more details. We are always keen to help ensure you are booked on the most suitable voyage for you.
Are other single travelers mainly women or men?
Generally, the split between women and men traveling solo on our trips is 50:50, however in recent years there has been a slight rise in the number of female solo travelers. If you'd like to know more about the others booked on your specific voyage, talk to our Expedition Experts today.
What age will the rest of my group be?
The age groups of passengers on our voyages vary hugely. Traditionally the majority of passengers have been over 50, however in recent years we have seen an increase in younger guests; particularly with the lure of our adventure activities, photography workshops, adding voyages to a round-the-world trip etc. We would say expect the age range to be diverse & rest assured that a good, mixed range of ages on the expedition makes the experience all the more fun.
