hey all
i really want to do this tour however i was just won dering is it more for couples than singles..I am going alone in may 07.any advise really needed

hey! im going alone in march 07... ive heard alot of people go on their own, i reckon it'd b great going by your self coz u get to meet heaps of people and have a great time

I would say 75% of the people on the tours I been are solo..
I am heading out on my 4th, and already of the people I know going, 5 people out of 7 are going solo.
I always travel with 1 friend, but dont worry, you get to meet tons of people in either case.
The advantage of going with someone you know, you have someone to rely on in those emergency situations, the disadvantage, you usually always have to check up with them to make sure your both doing what you both want to do.. then again with a tour thats so large, you have those days of escapes, when you can go with new found friends and so can they. People are always welcoming on these tours, everyone is there for the same thing, a great trip and a good time... so you will be assimiliated into a group right away as long as you have personality.. The whole point of traveling is meeting new people and experiencing new things, traveling solo you will have more time to learn about other people.. The reason I dont travel solo, is the whole sharing a room thing, its like camp all over again, but you never know who you will be bunking with, but your never in the room anway, most of the time, we were sleepig on the bus.. It just easier to yell at a friend, then a stranger ..
Good luck, you will have a blast, you trust me this wont be your last contiki...

hey i was thinking of booking the same one.. but i am in the same situation.. i'll be going solo as well

if you go on the tour by yourself you would meet alot more people then if you went with a friend because you would probably feel obligated to stick with your friend. i think if you go on your own the opportunities are endless... u can meet friends for life and have the absolute time of your life!

Hey yeh i think either way if u go alone or wit sombody youll have a awsome time no matter what, im going alone in March 07, and cant wait to meet new people and make new friends, so SPAIN!! HERE I COME!!
hope ya'll have a great tour

I'm thinking of heading out of this tour too either May/June 07.

I took a tour this summer with friends, and had a blast. We're planning on doing tours nexy summer as well-more than likely New Zealand and Australia, but I really want to go Spain....but I'd be going alone, which I admit is scary....I like having my friends with me....but meeting new people is cool...and I think that going solo makes you mingle more with others.

Going solo...shouldn't be an issue...we had solos on my tour, and we all made friends...so after a day...they weren't solo anymore, don't worry people are friendly :}
