Next year I am planning a trip around Southern Africa going to Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi and possibly Tanzania. Will be traveling with 3 other vehicles most of the time, on this camping trip. Have my own fully kitted Land Cruiser. Most of the trip will be camping with occasional “luxury” stops.
I have travelled extensively in Africa and know my way around pretty well. Will again be going to many Game Reserves, for animal and bird watching, the Namib desert, the Kalahari desert, the Okavango Delta, Victoria falls, Serengeti to name but a few.
Starting from Cape Town at the end of April 2020.
I am looking for one or two people to join me and share costs and a huge adventure.
If you can’t do the entire trip I can break it down into more manageable sections.

If we take out annual travel insurance as a couple, can one of us travel alone during that time and still be insured ?

I'm 56 but everyone says I look about 45. Physically fit 6' 165. I'm married but my wife is limited physically and is unable to go on adventurous vacations so I usually have to go alone. I'm bicurious and would like to find someone like minded to be friends with and maybe travel with. Physically fit and not hairy gets my attention and pretty much describes me.

Looking for a female companion for a short cruise the weekend of 10/05/19. Just companionship/friendship for a short getaway. Looking for a relaxing, short getaway. To the Caribbean (not booked yet). 57 yrs old, still working full time. Not a person who has to be on the go all the time but not someone who is a couch potato either. Would be fine to go our own ways all day or do some excursions together or just talk/share over dinner.

Having googled travel companion I find myself here....

I am a 59yr old Nottinghamshire based single male looking for a travel companion for a holiday in second half of September, I was thinking of Turkey but am open to suggestions and genuinely willing to consider anything. I am not looking for romance but not closed to the idea either. I am a very easy going laid back guy without drama or baggage just looking for the easy life and a relaxing holiday.

I tend to like peaceful holidays, I suffer from mild knee arthritis so cannot walk too far these days. I used to love walking miles - alas, no more. I love snorkelling, boat trips, driving - happy to rent a car. dislike shopping endlessly in tourist shops. I love good food and wine and discovering local places of interest often off the beaten path. I am no longer one for late nights clubbing or burning the candle at both ends, getting a flicker at one end is excitement enough these days.. I am not a big drinker but would want a few cocktails of an evening to watch the sun go down while socialising would be a perfect evening.

I have generally for the last few years gone on all inclusive holidays in Europe but am willing to try something different - I would like a driving holiday (I don't mind driving any distance) as never actually done that and it sounds interesting, a simple beach holiday is also fine.

I do not know what to expect having put out this idea and have no prior understanding of how this might work - I would expect a couple of meetings for coffee etc before booking anything.

Hello,
I am looking for a like minded individual, non smoker, happy and easy going person to share accommodation and transport costs with. Or I am happy to join anyone going to warm places in winter months on the same basis. I am 63 years old male of Indian origin. I spend at least two months in India. Each year I choose two states to travel for a month in each state. Travel within India is by all modes of transport, public and/or private. Accommodation varies from 5 star to basic depending on the availability, but can be based on the means of my companion.If anyone is interested I will be happy to meet up with and explore feasibility. Happy travelling. [email protected]
Kind regards.

Hi all,
I recently retired (66), and I love to travel (on the budget).
Finally, after years as a scientist, I have plenty of time to do it.
I have four timeshares, and numerous booked weeks.
My experience include Europe, Mexico, Meddle East and now I'm planning a trip to South East Asia.
All inclusive are not my favorites. I love freedom of choice, and I'm opened to experience other cultures. My interests are architecture, history, landscape, food and more.
I live in San Diego, and I'm looking for a companion to travel.
