What we’re about
This is a group for Singles and Solo travelers who actually get out and travel. From local weekend getaways to international trips to cruises, there's a little something for everyone! Claudette of Claudette Travels is our resident travel agent and Organizer - you're welcome to contact her to arrange or post your own trips.
We’re here to help single travelers meet prospective roommates not just when you’re ready to travel, but at social events ahead of time to make new friends who travel. This is also a great forum to learn, teach and share tips to make travel more economical so having a roommate is more of an option than a must to make a trip affordable. In addition to the trips posted, you are welcome to share your trips to have others join you - work with our new dedicated travel agent to help you put one together (both for you personally or to share with the group).
We have a variety of trips, a little something for everyone, from exploring areas around WA, trips to other states and international travels. Additionally, we have a variety social and info events such as Travel Talks, frequent flyer tips, dinner parties, happy hours, cultural/international events, dance lessons, language lessons, and more.
No need to travel alone, come join us!
THANK YOU! ~ Claudette

Discover the best of Morocco and its local culture in a small group… From ancient medinas to vast Saharan dunes; Morocco’s enchanting landscapes will mesmerize and transport you back in time. Haggle for spices and textiles in bustling souks, sleep under an immense blanket of twinkling stars in the Sahara Desert, and caravan by camel just like Berber nomads.
The Blue City: Chefchaouen’s brilliant blues will engulf you for 3 days and 2 nights whereas many groups skip it or just do a quick stop.
It’s your vacation!: All the must-sees are included, but if there’s a particular activity that you would like to skip, your tour leader is there to offer alternative options.

The game plan is to hang out and party at the resort, but we may have to head into Centro for dinner at one of my favorite Italian restaurants, Salvatore G's, as well as visit some popular spots like the Office and Cabo Wabo. Also planning on an excursion or two, one of which will definitely include a water activity.
