In 2026, several major tour operators have eliminated or significantly reduced the "single supplement" to cater to the booming solo travel market. G Adventures and Intrepid Travel are industry leaders in this regard; they do not charge a supplement if you are willing to be paired with a same-gender roommate. If a roommate isn't available, you still don't pay extra. Exodus Adventure Travels and EF Go Ahead Tours also offer dedicated "Solo Only" departures where a private room is included in the base price, effectively removing the supplement. For younger travelers (18–35), Contiki uses a similar roommate-matching system. Other luxury brands like Tauck and Abercrombie & Kent frequently run seasonal promotions where the single supplement is waived on specific river cruises or land tours. These companies recognize that solo travelers now make up over 40% of their bookings and have adjusted their pricing models to remain competitive in 2026.
