Aurora Expeditions announces savings for solo travellers
Edited by Travel Weekly


    Aurora Expeditions has today announced savings for solo travellers thinking of going north for the summer.

    Adventurous solo travellers can take advantage of no solo supplements, enjoying a guaranteed private cabin on select departures during Aurora’s Arctic 2024 season with plenty of options available on unforgettable voyages visiting Greenland, Svalbard, Northwest Passage, Iceland and more.

    The deals are valid to June 30, 2024 or until sold out.

    “Expedition cruising is such a fantastic choice for solo travellers, and we are thrilled to be offering some fantastic value for solo travellers on our upcoming Arctic 2024 season,” commented the Australian-owned adventure travel company’s Global Head of Sales, David Tanguay.

    “Our social and welcoming voyages on our small expedition ships are an ideal option for solo travellers, who make up approximately 30 per cent of our customer base.

    “Our smaller passenger numbers and relaxed approach create an intimate and friendly environment, where passengers’ interactions with the wild natural places we visit become a shared experience. We have had many solo travellers make lifelong friendships on our voyages and return for subsequent adventures with us.”

    The no single supplement offer is valid across several upcoming voyages on the company’s two purpose-built small expedition ships, the Greg Mortimer and the Sylvia Earle, including:

    • Jewels of the Arctic – 23 June – 7 July 2024, or 7-21 July 2024 from Longyearbyen, Norway to Reykjavik, Iceland
    • Greenland Odyssey – 6-22 July 2024 from Reykjavik, Iceland to Toronto, Canada
    • Northwest Passage – 20 July-5 August 2024, from Calgary to Toronto, Canada
    • Northwest Passage – 3-19 August 2024, from Toronto to Calgary, Canada
    • Traversing the Northwest Passage – 17 August-15 September 2024 from Toronto, Canada to Anchorage, United States
