What our customers ask about Greece and Italy Tours for Solo Travelers
Which areas of Greece and Italy are most solo traveler-friendly on guided tours?
The historic centers of Athens Rome and Mykonos Town offer the perfect mix of safety and social opportunities for solo travelers. Athens' Plaka neighborhood stands out for its welcoming atmosphere while areas near the Arion Hotel in Monastiraki draw solo travelers with their energetic street life. In Italy the zones around Florence's Piazza della Signoria and Venice's St. Mark's Square make it easy to join group activities or explore on your own. One TourRadar traveler shared: "Florence truly stole my heart; it was an absolute favorite for me, with its beautiful Renaissance art and architecture at every turn. The combination of Italy and Greece was ideal."
What support is provided for solo travelers during free time?
Key areas like Athens' Plaka district and Rome's Trastevere neighborhood provide excellent bases for independent exploration with their many casual eateries and social spaces. The Greek islands particularly Mykonos and Santorini excel at welcoming solo travelers. Popular gathering spots include the Acropolis area in Athens and St. Mark's Square in Venice where you'll often meet other independent travelers. According to a TourRadar review: "The Greek islands were perfect for meeting people especially during the included sunset dinner in Oia Santorini at Restaurant 1800."
What are the best times of year for solo travelers to visit Greece and Italy?
Plan your trip during April-May or September-October when the weather is mild and major sites like the Acropolis and Vatican Museums see fewer visitors. These months bring lighter crowds to hotels such as the Divani Meteora in Kalambaka and NH Napoli in Naples creating better opportunities for social interaction. TourRadar data shows September as the most popular month for solo bookings. As one reviewer noted: "Traveling in September meant perfect weather for outdoor activities and meeting other travelers at rooftop bars in Santorini."
What's included in evening meals and dining arrangements for solo travelers?
Each tour includes daily breakfast and several shared dinners at local establishments such as those in Rome's Trastevere or Athens' Plaka area. Companies like Europamundo organize welcome dinners at partner hotels including NH Palermo along with evenings at traditional Greek tavernas. One TourRadar reviewer commented: "The group dinners were perfect for socializing especially the included dinner at a family restaurant in Kalabaka near the Meteora monasteries."
How much free time do solo travelers get on these tours?
The schedule typically offers 2-3 hours of free time each day plus occasional full free days. In places like Santorini afternoons are often unstructured after morning activities. Rome's itineraries usually leave evenings open for personal exploration or optional group meals. A TourRadar participant noted: "I enjoyed having free time to wander through Florence's cobblestone streets while still having the security of guided tours for major sites."
Are there any specific activities that are particularly good for solo travelers?
Group experiences like Santorini's caldera boat tours Meteora monastery visits and Venice gondola rides naturally bring travelers together. Walking tours of Athens including the Acropolis and Rome's Colosseum create easy opportunities to connect with others. At spots like Hotel Vienoulas Garden in Mykonos evening tours often end with group gatherings at local tavernas. As one TourRadar traveler said: "I wasn't sure about the cruise portion at first but it turned out to be such a refreshing way to explore the islands with the group!"
