Looking for a woman travel companion who likes to drive to take a short trip from Sydney to Melbourne Australia next May 2020. I am in my 70s, married, and have been traveling since I was 19, half of the time solo, sometimes with my husband, sometimes with my sisters, sometimes with woman friends. I will be flying to Darwin after that for a conference, but I have heard that the trip along the eastern coast of Australia is just spectacular!

Hi I’m a 73 year old carer for a very dear husband who has had dementia for 14 years. Next year 2020 I would love to take a weeks holiday in Croatia. I’ve never been and it’s somewhere I would love to go. It’s been a hard 14 years and I need a respite. It’s time as things are getting hard to cope with. I get a bit nervous in airports and it would be great to have a travelling companion. I love walking and good food and wine. I don’t mind whether a male or female companion. Just a new friend and someone to share the experience with. I live in south Leicestershire.

Im a young 70 year old woman from Middlesex looking for a like minded female to travel primarily to Cyprus where i have a home. Someone who likes eating out, a glass or two of wine, a little bit of beach and pool, walking ....but not too energetic, little bit of shopping and exploring. If you fancy a couple of weeks in Oct in Cyprus or some other time with free accommodation of course then please get in touch.

Hi Ragtagbobtail

I'm a young 73 female, recently moved to Ascot in Berkshire who would love to find a like-minded travel companion. Since you list a couple of glasses of wine, eating out and the odd leisurely walk and explore, that may be you!

if you haven't had too many responses, perhaps we could explore further?

What a great website. I am a little old but have the same energy as one 10 or 15 years younger. I can hike and bike, climb stairs and hills. My thinking is positive and young at heart. This year I went to Italy, Montenegro and Croatia. Fun fun fun. I mostly enjoy Europe., but. thinking maybe the Asian countries would be interesting.. Maybe even sleeping in an Igloo? When I am home, I play lots of golf tennis and pickleball. but my suitcase is always easily packed. Betsy

I also Googled traveling companion and ended up here. I am 54 soon to be 55 and would like to spend my birthday in the Galapagos. There is a nice looking cruise Nov.30-Dec.7 that would be perfect. https://www.quasarex.com/galapagos/deals Only problem is, it's very expensive to go it alone and pay a single supplement. I'm sure if you've looked into going to the Galapagos, you've also run into this problem. So, I thought I'd throw it out there. You can be straight male or female. I am not opposed to a man if we are compatible. The room will have separate twin beds. No hanky panky guaranteed but who knows.

Hi, I am a 65 year old (nearly, birthday in November) single lady who is retiring from work at the end of this year. I love to travel and have done quite extensively over the years with family and friends. Am now considering dipping my toe into some solo travel so would love a bit of advice from anyone around my age who is doing it/done it. Also anybody interested in joining me in a nice holiday somewhere. Worldwide, Europe, city breaks, whatever/wherever!! As mentioned above, retiring at the end of the year so no time restrictions.

I live in the Manchester area but am open to meeting/talking to both ladies and gents from near and far.

I am looking to go on a one week all inclusive to the Cape Verde islands this coming January. I do need a nice week just lazing in some winter sunshine so this would be my start to a bit of solo travel. Anybody been there? I know there is not that much to do there outside of the holiday complexes but the beaches do look amazing.

Hello Baileybird,
I am a 72 year old retired man, also from Manchester, looking for a new travel companion. I find travelling solo to be not much fun. I have been away this year to Romania for a few days, but have never been to Cape Verde Islands.
Please get in touch if you want to discuss anything more.
