What people love about touring Western USA solo
- Alaska Kenai Adventure 9 Days
WOW! What an amazing trip! My nephew and I traveled to Alaska for the 9-day Kenai Adventure. This trip exceeded all expectations! Dave and Natalie are wonderful....highly experienced, knowledgeable, organized, laid back, and fun! The converted school bus was unique....comfortable with plenty of space. The food was great...Natalie was very accommodating to my vegan diet. I loved the family atmosphere of the group and how everyone would pitch in with the chores. The tents were easy to set up and take down. The campsites were in areas with stunning views. Each day brought a new adventure....wildlife cruise, hiking, sea kayaking, and the highlight of the trip....bear viewing at Lake Clark National Park and Preserve! Definitely the best adventure evah!!! Shout out to hard working Carolina and beautiful boy Tayo:) Denali 2022!!!
- Yellowstone & Rocky Mountain Explorer
No Words Can Adequately Describe...We recently went on the 7 day Southwest tour followed by the 7 day Yellowstone tour. We chose the camping option. All our expectations were exceeded. The itinerary was full on, allowing us to see everything on offer and more. A huge thank you to Chris Patrick, our guide. He kept everyone engaged, entertained, watered and fed. No request or concerns went unanswered. He's an asset to the Bindlestiff team and we would DEFINITELY recommend you do these trips. Being able to stay right in the National Parks was fantastic.
Thanks a lot. I had a very good 8 days from 22nd of Jan till 29th 2024 with your team and literally suggest your company to all. Your tour leaders were responsible, respectful, helpful, and supportive. Goodness bless you guys.
Magnificent West – 8 days
What our customers ask about Western USA Tours for Solo Travelers
How easy is it to meet other travelers as a solo participant on Western USA tours?
More than half of Western USA tour bookings come from solo travelers making it easy to connect with like-minded people. The tours create natural opportunities to socialize through shared activities from group dinners at local spots like Rustler's Rooste in Phoenix to hiking together in Yosemite or enjoying evening shows in Las Vegas. As one traveler put it: "Made more and better friends in 2 weeks on this trip than I have in the last 2-3 years of my life. There is no one I wouldn't be stoked about meeting again."
What type of accommodation can solo travelers expect on Western USA tours?
You'll stay in a mix of hotels and campgrounds depending on your tour. Some tours like G Adventures' "Wild Western USA" split the stays between 6 nights camping and 3 nights in hotels. Hotel options range from the Brandin' Iron Inn in West Yellowstone to camping experiences in Zion National Park. Solo travelers usually share rooms or tents with another same-gender traveler unless they choose to pay extra for private accommodation. The camping portions often lead to friendships through shared meals and evenings around the campfire.
Which areas of Western USA are most solo traveler-friendly?
Major cities like Las Vegas and San Francisco along with national parks such as Yosemite and Grand Canyon work well for solo travel. These places combine organized activities safe environments and chances to meet others. The Grand Canyon offers ranger-led hikes and talks while cities provide hostel stays and social meetups. A recent traveler noted: "Las Vegas was incredibly solo-friendly - between the organized Strip tours and group activities it was easy to meet people and never feel alone."
What should solo travelers pack for a Western USA tour?
Pack clothes that work for different weather conditions. You'll need sturdy hiking boots for places like Bryce Canyon layers for temperature swings between Death Valley and Yosemite's highlands and a reliable daypack. If your tour includes camping bring a sleeping bag and pillow. Hotels like the Grand Vista in Grand Junction provide standard amenities but the outdoor portions require specific gear.
How are meals typically handled for solo travelers on Western USA tours?
Tours usually cover some meals especially breakfast. Many offer optional group meal plans like Intrepid's "Vegas to San Fran" tour which suggests a $20 daily food kitty for shared meals. You'll find picnic lunches during national park visits and group dinners at places like the Flying Saddle Resort in Alpine. These shared meals often become key social moments where solo travelers bond with their group.
