Why book a solo cruise with Marella Cruises?
Events for solo travellers
Our onboard Guest Experience Coordinators host special events for solo travellers, so it’s easy to meet like-minded people. You can expect a coffee morning on the first day of your cruise, a hosted dinner in the middle, and farewell drinks on your last night. And, of course, you’ll be free to meet up with your fellow solo travellers at any time in-between.

Single cabins available
Our single cabins come with all the same touches as our double cabins, so you can look forward to that home-from-home feel. Just so you know, our single cabins are popular, so it’s a good idea to book early. You can reserve a cabin when you book – or up to 15 days before you go – from just £65. If you want to request a specific cabin number after you’ve booked, call us on 0203 451 2682 and we’ll do the rest.

Dining options
From buffet joints to speciality á la carte restaurants, you’ll have plenty of choice when it comes to where to eat onboard. If you’re travelling solo, you’ll have the option to sit alone or on a table with other guests. Or, if you fancy a more laidback meal, you can order from our room service menu.

Explore your way
Meet like-minded people on a group shore excursion, or explore new destinations on your own – or a combination of both. We’ve got a whole heap of experiences to pick from, from pizza-making in Naples and wine-tasting in Ancona, in Italy, to tuk tuk tours in Kotor, in Montenegro.
Discover some of our top ways to explore ashore.
Why cruise on your own?
Escape the day-to-day
Dreaming of swapping your desk view for a sea view? Life can be hectic sometimes, and a solo cruise is the ideal way to escape the usual routine.
Make new friends
Solo cruises are a great way to meet like-minded people – and events like coffee mornings and pre-dinner drinks make it easy to meet fellow solo travellers.
See more of the world
One of the best things about cruising is that you can tick a few spots off your must-visit list in one holiday. From big cities to tropical isles, we’ve got tonnes of choice.
Make more memories
Wherever you sail to, you’ll return from your solo cruise with a camera roll full of memories to share with your friends and family.
Do as much or as little as you like
With no one else to think about, you can spend your holiday doing as much – or as little – as you like. Explore ashore or kick back by the pool – the choice is yours.
