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!

CHOOSE THE WAY YOU TRAVEL
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.

My travel journey began with a solo adventure to New York at 21-and I've been hooked ever since! Fast forward a few years and I've had the absolute joy of exploring over 20 countries.
From wandering through ancient cities to tasting street food in hidden alleyways, I thrive on discovering new places, flavours, and cultures.
I found my way into the travel industry while searching for a career that truly lit me up-and I've never looked back.
Today, I get to turn wanderlust into reality by crafting unforgettable holidays for our local community and curious travellers from all over the world.
Planning a trip should feel exciting, not overwhelming. I'm here to take the stress out of travel and help you design a getaway that's as unique and joyful as you are.
Got ideas? Let's dream big and make it happen-together!

House of Travel Papamoa
I have always been a lover of travel, family holidays as a child sparked my love of seeing the world. I was born in England, moving to New Zealand with my family at the age of six. Drawn to the outdoors and the natural beauty of the world, I enjoy nothing more than exploring new landscapes, immersing myself in local living or being a major tourist. Whether that’s wondering narrow streets, exploring a big city or lounging on a sun-soaked beach.
In addition to my knowledge of travel, I'm currently training to become a Contiki champ with a passion for adventure and a love of meeting new people, I am eager to help you plan your own exciting Contiki, Top Deck, G-adventures or Intrepid tour and create unforgettable memories.
I was fortunate enough to be sent to Disneyland California and loved every aspect of its adrenaline packed adventure. It is an unforgettable trip and I cant wait to help others book their magical Disney holidays.
With a passion for adventure and a keen eye for detail, I’m always on the lookout for hidden gems, unique experiences and trending destinations. Whether you're looking for a thrill-seeking adventure or a peaceful escape into nature, I have the drive to help you plan the trip of a lifetime.
