Solos Holidays Reviews 

Just returned from a fantastic three week New Zealand tour covering both the North and South Islands. This was an extremely well planned holiday ensuring we visited the key areas and attractions the Islands had to offer. The whole experience was led by our super Team Leader Gary Bailey. Gary ensured we maximised every opportunity to see an amazing country and experience a range of interesting activities. His energy, warmth, super personality and great sense of humour made the holiday the best it could be for the Group. I hope I get to go on another Solos holiday with Gary

When I decided to book a holiday to New Zealand I knew that I wanted to go with Solos, having previously had two excellent holidays with them. As ever, the process of booking my holiday was straightforward and seamless, and I like the app.
This was my first Discovery holiday and it far exceeded my expectations. It was well organised with a comprehensive and brilliant itinerary. The trips were fantastic - for me especially were the cruises, the Māori experiences, and the mountains.
A special thank you goes to our amazing tour guide, Gary, who always went above and beyond to ensure that we saw everything. His professionalism and first-hand knowledge of New Zealand proved invaluable in this respect. Gary also brought a genuine warmth and humour into the mix which ensured that we had an enjoyable and fun time. A truly awesome trip.

The tour leader, Debs, was superb. Clone her.

I’ve arrived home after a wonderful time in New Zealand. I’ve always wanted to go there and this trip exceeded all my expectations. I thought the holiday was very well organised and all the trips exceptional especially the cruises and the Māori experiences.
A key aspect that raised this package to the “ holiday of a life time” was our tour guide, Gary. He worked so hard to ensure that we saw everything there was to see and that we enjoyed ourselves. He created a fun atmosphere and his insight to the history and geography of NZ added another dimension to our Discovery adventure.

Just returned from a fabulous tennis holiday in Corfu. Hotel & food was lovely and staff were friendly. The tour leader, Mark Atherton, was excellent at organising the tennis and ensuring everybody has a great time

Just back from a great tennis holiday in Corfu. Nice hotel and friendly staff. Special mention to Mark our tour leader who is a true people person. He worked tirelessly to ensure we all had a good time.

Great tennis getaway to Corfu. Very well organised by Mark Atherton who looks after everyone and makes sure they have a good time whether on the courts or socialising. A true professional and fun person.

Just come back from another tennis holiday in Corfu. All ran smoothly thanks to Mark our tour leader who goes out of his way to make sure everyone enjoys the holiday. Thanks Mark

Great location, great hotel, great tennis, great organisation by Mark. Great weather too, also arranged my Mark I believe. 😎

Great guides; informative and active; up and out and about; a vignette of the Almalfi coast with niche experiences - worth going - even solo!

Had a fabulous tennis holiday in Corfu April 2026. Thank you so much to Mark Atherton for his organisational skills making all the plans so much fun.

Wonderful week in Puglia, Italy, led by our great tour leader, Scott.
Never too much trouble to sort out a problem or lend a helping hand.
Always 'bringing up the rear' (so to speak), ensuring no one was left behind.
He really listened to his guests and was a pleasure to be around.

Puglia was an area I really wanted to visit and our leader, Scott along with guide Sasha, they made it memorable. Scott, as our group leader helped me due to a knee injury just before our tour started, accommodating my ability to do all the walks. Beautiful area and really loved the Farmhouse luncheon! Great group of people and great experience!

Have been travelling with Solo’s for many years and enjoyed every holiday. Just back from Puglia. Very well organised. The excursions were great and ran exactly to plan. We had a fantastic tour leader, Scott, who was always very helpful if there were any issues, and who integrated so well with the group, ensuring everyone was ok and having a great time. I met so many nice people on this holiday, and looking forward to my next one.

A fabulous full-on week exploring this wonderful part of Italy. Great hikes. Great sights. The local tour guides - particularly Sasha - were fantastic. Making the days out fun and very informative.
Also a great group of fellow travellers. Big shout out to Scott the Solos tour leader who kept us all organised and really helped the group to gel. Would jump at the chance to do another holiday with him at the helm.
Overall a fantastic week - holiday expectations exceeded!

Well what a lovely holiday, the tour leader Scott made sure everyone felt included and his humour certainly helped the group bond very quickly. Thanks to him and the great bunch of people on this trip for making it so memorable.

Just back from my latest solo’s holiday. Not had a bad experience to date so intend to stay with them. Next one coming up in June.

Our leader Scott brought such a positive vibe to the group. Everyone felt like family so quickly. Of course, the group happened to be a great bunch, but Scott fostered these relationships and made sure everyone was doing well at all times. He went above and beyond his role, solving the smallest problems that arose to handling extra travel plans for free days and even extended vacations. As a first time Solos traveler, he certainly influenced my decision to book again. On a side note, he’s a pretty good photographer too😉😊

Our Solos guide, Sue, was fantastic and the hiking guides were excellent too. Great hotel with plentiful food. Hikes were challenging at times, needing poles, but all the more rewarding for that. Good variety of activities with a lovely group to enhance the walking

Scott was always very helpful and friendly and approachable. Thanks to him for a fantastic holiday
