Hello there

I am booking the Scottish Highlights tour with Cosmos at the end of June. The thing is, I am 21 and traveling alone. What kind of effect will this have on my trip? Are people on such trips usually open to socializing, or do they stay in their own groups?

Thank you in advance.

Has anyone been on this trip? Was it enjoyable?

Well I can answer in general terms, since I dont know the people on your tour personally. In my tours with Cosmos (I travel with my family) the "Single" travelers actually had the best of both worlds, in that the fellow passengers were ALWAYS more then happy to have the "Single" person join them in whatever they were doing and at the same time you can choose to have YOUR Time. It will really be Your choice to join in or venture out on your own during "Free time". . I am even a little jealous of the singles having the freedom to choose and the extra effort that the rest of the tour members take to make the "single" feel Welcomed and Wanted. To sum up.. ..YOU will find (usually) 2-3 or more fellow singles on the tour and you will feel like family by the end of day 2 (unless you are a mean person- which I doubt) and have more freedom of choice! You will have a great time and Scotland is INCREDIBLE. A little (silly) side note . .. .. .. ..in Edinbourgh the Pizza Hut serves "Free Refills" on sodas, which is unheard of in Europe.. ..silly I know, but at the time it was so NICE to drink all the soda I wanted and my kids were in heaven.. ..lol!

Thanks for the awesome advice. I am very much looking forward to visiting Scotland. My only concern was the kinds of people on the tour. However, your words gave me some confidence. I am usually able to get along with people from all age groups, so socializing should not be a problem.

Thank you very much. You just increased my excitement by another notch

Yes, the third post is right on. We have been on two tours and the sigles had a great time. Your going to love it -

Thank you. It sounds great.
