If you’re anything like us, your travel bucket list is impressively long. It’s perhaps even longer than your family or friends’ bucket list, and you might not be able to convince someone to go with you on every single trip.
That’s where our partners Just You come in. We’ve been working with them for several years now to offer our customers escorted tours designed with solo travellers in mind to some of the world’s most exotic locations. Here are just five of their most bucket-list worthy itineraries on offer right now.
1. Namibia – Tribes and Natural Wonders
If your dream holiday to Africa involves more than just a safari, then we recommend this itinerary in Namibia. Not only will you enjoy games drives where you’ll have a high chance of spotting lions, rhinos and elephants – you’ll also be treated to a visit at the Living Museum of Damara People, a drive through Kuiseb & Canyon Pass to Swakopmund, and a drive out to the ‘petrified dunes’. There’s also optional excursions for a Swakopmund City Tour, and a Dolphin & Seal Cruise.

2. Highlights of Peru
Peru is home to many bucket-list adventures, and this tour will take you through all of them. From the Incan ruins of Macchu Picchu, to the floating islands of Lake Titicaca, and to the pre-Incan burial ground of Sillustani. The tour also includes stays in the sprawling cities of Lima and Cuzco. There’s also an optional excursion that includes a trip to the Sacred Valley and Ollantaytambo .
