Travelling with a single friend can be a great buffer…but going it alone means you'll be more likely to take the plunge and get out there and socialize. So think carefully before you invite a buddy.

"Traveling when single can be an exciting and incredibly liberating experience," says the specialist company Meet Market Adventures. "Single people possess a level of freedom and independence unknown to couples, allowing them to enjoy their vacation to the fullest."
