Highlights

  • Experience Antarctica at your own pace as a solo passenger on a cruise
  • Enjoy the freedom of choosing how you spend your time during a voyage
  • Pursue transformative travel on your own in an incomparable location to mark a personal milestone
  • Make new friends onboard expedition vessels, Zodiacs or sightseeing aircraft
  • No single supplement if willing to share a cabin with another or others

Can you travel to Antarctica by yourself? Absolutely! Antarctica solo travel is not only very much possible, but quite commonplace and eminently rewarding. Voyages to the Antarctic unify all passengers in up-close appreciation of one of the world’s most beautiful—and certainly the most untouched—places, and striking up lifelong friendships with like-minded intrepid explorers while touring this polar dreamscape comes easy.

Antarctica trips for singles give you complete freedom to spend your time: soaking up the on-deck views, attending every available lecture, and joining paddling and shore-based excursions left and right—or indulging in a slower-paced, more open-ended and reflective South Pole-wards sojourn. And what’s more, there are plenty of Antarctica cruises with no single supplement when sharing a cabin, so you won’t have to pay extra for the privilege of your Antarctic solo expedition.
