Why a River Cruise Is the
Best Way to Travel Solo

Discover the Joy of Traveling Solo Without Going It Alone

Traveling on your own can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life, and a river cruise is an ideal way to do it. By booking a Uniworld River Cruise with Grand European Travel, solo travelers can enjoy the perfect combination of independence, comfort, and connection. (Plus, our guests save more with GET exclusive offers!) Every cruise is thoughtfully designed to remove the stress of planning while surrounding you with like-minded travelers who share your love of exploration.

A Carefree Way to See Europe

Planning a solo trip across multiple countries can be challenging. Booking a river cruise with GET makes solo travel simple, and it's one of the best ways to experience Europe. Each day, your elegant ship docks in the heart of beautiful cities and charming villages. Your accommodations, meals, and daily excursions are included, so you can spend your time discovering rather than organizing. Whether you are visiting the castles along the Rhine, the vineyards of Bordeaux, or the cultural treasures of the enchanting Danube, everything is arranged for you from start to finish.

A Welcoming Community for Solo Travelers

Solo river cruising offers the best of both worlds. You can enjoy your own space, yet never feel alone. Onboard programs, wine tastings, and small-group excursions naturally create opportunities to connect with others. Whether you join a guided walking tour, attend an evening lecture, or share a meal with fellow travelers, the experience feels personal and engaging. Many guests find that what begins as a solo adventure becomes a journey shared with friends who appreciate travel just as much.

Luxury and Warm Hospitality Onboard

Every Uniworld ship is a boutique floating hotel, created to feel both sophisticated and welcoming. From the art-lined corridors and cozy lounges to the attentive service and locally inspired cuisine, every detail reflects European elegance. You can spend the morning exploring with a small group, enjoy lunch on board, and relax on the sun deck as you sail to your next destination. Solo travelers often find that the atmosphere makes it easy to meet fellow guests while still enjoying moments alone when they wish.

Travel with Confidence and Ease

From your first call to your final port, every step of your journey is guided by experts who know how to make travel seamless. With GET, you can count on a caring team that understands the unique needs of solo travelers and ensures every detail is handled. You can explore Europe with complete confidence, knowing that your comfort, safety, and enjoyment come first.

Solo Traveler Offers Throughout the Year

You'll often find special savings for solo travelers when you book with GET, including reduced or waived single supplements on select Uniworld departures. These limited-time offers make it even easier to enjoy your own stateroom at a great value. Solo traveler promotions are available only a few times a year, so it is always a good idea to check current offers when you are ready to plan your trip. These offers are a wonderful way to enhance your journey, but the true value of solo river cruising comes from the comfort, community, and confidence while traveling through Europe.

Why You Should Travel Solo on a River Cruise

Traveling solo is an opportunity to see the world on your own terms. Book a Uniworld River Cruise with Grand European Travel, and explore Europe with confidence, comfort, and connection. Each day brings new scenery, new stories, and new friendships. You can relax knowing that every detail is taken care of while still having the freedom to choose how you spend your time.

Whether you are setting out on your first solo trip or planning your next great adventure, a river cruise offers the perfect balance of independence and community. It is travel made easy, elegant, and entirely your own.
