Being single was never an exciting experience. Nowadays people remain single out of choice, to enjoy life on their terms and condition. Single holiday is one of the ways for the singletons to rejoice. They are free like a bird, to explore the world and get the most out of their solo vacations.

Single traveller never had such a wide variety of options. The tourism industry for the singles knows exactly how to cater to the increasingly growing market for the solo travellers. With every passing day more and more travel companies are entering the industry offering exciting and cheap holidays for the singles.
One problem faced by solo travellers is the single person supplement. That means people on solo holidays have to pay for doubles. Booking of a hotel room is more expensive in the U.K than many other European cities. 

In U.K. most of the pricing for the tour operating hotels is for two people sharing and generally most of the travel companies quote prices on the basis of maximum occupancy of any given hotel room. As a general rule when a hotel room is booked the prices are on per room basis but as a single traveller you will pay more than a couple on a pro rata basis as the pricing of the room is calculated on the rule of "twin sharing". The hotel put forward their reason that even one person uses the equal amount of electricity, bedding etc as two people. While the true reason is that the hotel losses out on their revenue since only a solo traveller is occupying the room. Sometimes the tourists travelling alone can feel penalized but then they can stay in travel lodges since they do not discriminate on solo travel in such a way.

So now you ready to embark your journey as a solo traveller , you have completed your search on the internet about the hotels and all the required arrangements are been taken care off by the travel company. So do u really need not worry about anything relating to your adventurous holiday - your so excited about….Think again!

There is no dearth of fake travel websites floated in the market and not every one is internet savvy and knows about the tell tale signs so make sure your bookings are made by one of the best travel websites in the industry.

At the end of it all, it can be summed up that a single person can also go on a solo holiday, Re-define enjoyment, forget his or her worries and tensions, do things as per his or her convenience and breathe the air of his or her independence.
