Are you considering booking a Christian cruise or tour but unsure about traveling solo? You’re not alone! You may begin the trip as a solo adventurer but won’t finish it that way.

Christian Travel offers one of the best experiences for solo travelers because of the many opportunities you’ll have to connect with like-minded people during shared meals, group excursions, worship sessions and faith-based discussions. We’ve gathered the best tips and resources to ensure your Christian travel experience is meaningful and filled with new friendships.

Christian travel is about more than just visiting beautiful destinations. Not only do you go with the One who has promised to never leave or forsake you, but you also travel with the family of God. Despite having just met someone, you’ll feel a depth of relationship that is only possible because of your shared experiences and faith.

Here’s what makes traveling solo on a Christian tour or cruise different:

  • Built-In CommunityEvery tour and cruise is filled with fellow believers, making it easy to form meaningful connections.
     
  • Faith-Based Activities – From worship nights to Bible studies, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to grow spiritually while bonding with others.
     
  • Shared Excursions – Explore biblical sites, stunning landscapes and historical landmarks with fellow travelers who share your passion for God and His Word.
