Solo Traveller Cruises
An Antarctic cruise is an incredible experience unlike any other, but for single travellers, the friendly, communal, and welcoming nature of cruising means you’ll make new friends before your ship has even left the port!
We have collected the best deals for solo travel to Antarctica below, but this is just the tip of the iceberg.
Our experienced team can walk you through all the options, as we know it can sometimes be confusing to find the best Antarctica cruise for solo travellers.
Expedition cruise options for solo travellers to Antarctica
1. Book a dedicated single cabin on a ship.
Some ships offer these, while others don’t. Please note single cabins tend to sell out quickly, so it’s best to book in advance.
2. Book a cabin designed for two guests, but pay a single supplement to have it to yourself.
These room types are priced based on double occupancy, so a single supplement is a surcharge applied when only one person is in the cabin. Some ships do offer twin share cabins with no single supplements, but these also sell out quickly.
3. If you’re keen to avoid single supplements, we can pair you up in a double cabin with a fellow solo passenger of the same gender.
We also try to match by age when we can. Sharing a cabin is often the most affordable option for solo travellers, and your roommate usually becomes your first friend on the voyage!
The prices listed below are per person twin share. Please contact us for more information as we have access to more ships and special offers than we can list here.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Yes! Each season, we have many solo travellers of all ages and genders travel with us to Antarctica. It's easy to make friends over afternoon tea or a casual cocktail in the ship's lounge, so most travellers who arrive alone quickly make friends. Some ships also reserve restaurant seating for solo travellers who would like to dine with others.
Usually, the best way to visit Antarctica on a budget, if you're alone, is to book a twin share cabin and let our experienced team pair you up with a roommate of the same gender. This way, you can both benefit from twin share pricing.
Most cruise operators base their cabin pricing on two people in one cabin, known as twin share. If a solo traveller occupies a twin share cabin, the single supplement is the surcharge applied to the cabin's pricing. We know solo travellers are keen to avoid supplements as much as possible, so give us a call and we can help you find the best ship for your budget.
The allure of Antarctica spans generations, and we often welcome solo travellers of any age aboard! Many solo travellers are in their 30s and up into their 70s, but no matter your age, you'll find it easy to meet likeminded people.
If you're flexible on dates, then yes, we can help you find the best solo option for your Antarctica cruise. However, dedicated solo cabins often sell out in advance, so last minute solo travellers may find more options available if they're happy to share a cabin with another traveller of the same gender.
