How to enjoy your time in Greece on a Solos Exclusive

When most people think of a holiday, the first image that comes to mind is usually lounging by the pool or soaking up the sun on a beach. And while Solos Exclusives definitely deliver on sunshine and relaxation, that’s just the beginning.

These trips are designed for solo travellers who want to do things their way, whether that’s exploring local culture, or trying something completely new. 
Here are 10 ways to make the most of a Solos Exclusive in Greece - beyond just sunbathing.

 

  

1. Immerse Yourself in Local Culture

Solos Exclusives aren’t just about staying in the hotel; they’re gateways to the surrounding area. Explore charming villages, historic sites, and local markets. From the winding streets of Santorini to the colourful towns of Crete and the hidden gems in Thassos, there’s always something to learn, photograph, and enjoy.


 

2. Culinary Adventures Await

Whether it’s a small taverna in Corfu or a local winery in Zakynthos, these trips give you the chance to taste authentic local dishes and regional specialities. Don’t just eat, learn a few cooking tips, discover local ingredients, and even pick up a new favourite recipe along the way.


3. Scenic Walks and Hikes

Feeling active? Many Solos destinations, like Lefkada, Thassos and Halkidiki, are perfect for scenic walks and gentle hikes. You can explore hidden coves, rolling hills, and coastal paths, all at a pace that suits you. It’s a great way to see the area beyond the main tourist spots and enjoy some fresh air.



3. Explore at Your Own Pace

Solos Exclusives give you total freedom. Spend a morning wandering the streets of Corfu, an afternoon at the pool, and an evening enjoying local music. You choose the balance of activity and relaxation that works for you - no schedules or pressures, just options.


5. Join Optional Group Excursions

Prefer a little guidance? There’s a wide range of optional excursions to choose from. Whether it’s boat trips, guided tours, or cultural experiences, you can join in when it suits you. It’s the perfect way to explore with fellow travellers without feeling tied to a strict itinerary.



6. Make New Friends Naturally

One of the most special aspects of a Solos Exclusive is the community. From the moment you arrive, you’re part of a welcoming group of solo travellers. Whether you join others for a coffee, a sunset walk, or dinner, it’s easy to make connections, but there’s no pressure if you decide to prefer some quiet time.


7. Combine Adventure and Relaxation

Some trips even offer themed experiences like walking trips in Corfu, culture-focused tours in Crete, or activity-packed days in Zakynthos. You can push your comfort zone, try new experiences, and still come back to your exclusive hotel where everything is set up just for solos guests.

 


8. Savor Every Sunset

No matter what your day looks like; whether you’ve been exploring villages, hiking hills, or sampling the local cuisine, there’s always time to pause. The sunsets in Santorini, Zakynthos, and other Greek destinations are unforgettable. Perfect for a quiet reflection, a friendly chat, or simply soaking it all in.


9. Step Out of Your Comfort Zone

Trying new things is part of the Solos Exclusive experience. Maybe it’s tasting a dish you’ve never tried, exploring a hidden trail, or joining a small group excursion. The best trips are often the ones that push you just enough to make lasting memories.


10. Enjoy the Flexibility of Your Own Space

Finally, remember that your accommodation is entirely yours. Enjoy a private room, exclusive Solos-only properties, and the reassurance that everything from the pool to the common areas is designed for solo travellers. You have the freedom to relax or socialise, all in a safe and welcoming environment with your solos group.

 

Ready to Explore Your Way?

A Solos Exclusive is so much more than sunbathing. Whether it’s cultural exploration, culinary adventures, hikes, or simply unwinding with new friends, there’s something for everyone.

With flexible options, expert Tour Leaders, and properties reserved entirely for solo travellers, your next adventure could be the perfect mix of freedom, fun, and discovery.
