If you fancy going it alone for a change, adventure travel is a godsend. For starters you'll have loads in common with the people on your trip because you've already chosen something you're genuinely interested in. And unlike some 'single' holidays there's no pressure to meet someone of the opposite sex so you can sit back, hang out with everyone on your trip and relax.

Explore's short breaks are the ideal way to travel alone. The Rose Red City tour is a five-day trip exploring the magical landscapes of Petra followed by a visit to the magnificent desert scenery of Wadi Rum, where you'll camp, Bedouin-style, before trekking by camel through the Siq al Barrah gorge.
