TTC extends solo traveller options across four touring brands
The Travel Corporation has expanded its solo traveller offering on Trafalgar, Insight Vacations, Luxury Gold and Costsaver tours to cater for increased demand. Previously, solo options were
available on fewer than 10% of Costsaver and Trafalgar tours, but they will now be available on all ranges for 2022 and 2023. All single supplements across
the board have been reduced and many are free. The Travel Corporation
president Gavin Tollman said: “We are excited to offer this to solo travellers so they can get back doing what they love – seeing and experiencing the world, with the peace of mind they get when travelling with our all-ages guided brands.” An eight-day Best of Greece
tour, departing on June 3, costs £1,795, and offers a free solo upgrade. Flights are not included.

Malta and Gozo. The Greece tours are: Zante and Kefalonia; Rhodes and Halki; and the Pelion Peninsula, Skiathos and Alonissos. The operator introduced the concept two years ago
and is expanding the range based on growing interest. Prices start at £555 from Gatwick and £659
from Manchester for three nights in Kefalonia and four nights in Zante with a mix of self-catering and B&B accommodation. A six-night island-hopping itinerary with three
nights in Malta and three in Gozo costs from £679 for Manchester departures and £719 from Gatwick, with a mix of self-catering and B&B accommodation. Managing director Michael Vinales reported a surge in demand for island-hopping experiences.
People are looking to see more
during their time away – island-hopping is by far the best way to do this
“People are booking longer trips and are looking to
do and see more during their time away,” he said. “Island-hopping is by far the best way to do this
and islands are our speciality – we believe there is no better way to experience a country. We have carefully curated a collection of fantastic island hops and there is something for everyone, be that cultural, gourmet, family, off the beaten track or the ultimate in R&R.” He added: “For our trusted trade partners, we
continue to offer price parity; deposits for our island-hopping holidays start from £200 per person; and there’s the flexibility of choosing from a variety of
airlines, durations and departure airports.”
