Wikinger Reisen expands solo travel offerings to Vietnam and Japan

Wikinger Reisen is expanding its specialized travel line for singles and solo travelers by introducing new long-distance destinations for 2027. The expansion includes new group tours to Vietnam and Japan, designed to offer shared experiences rather than solitary adventures.

The Vietnam program focuses on Southeast Asian diversity, covering Hanoi, Saigon, the Halong Bay, and the Mekong Delta. The Japan itinerary, titled ‘Nippon gemeinsam’, explores the contrast between tradition and high-tech, featuring Tokyo, Kyoto, and the Japanese Alps. Other existing solo-focused destinations include Namibia and Oman.

In addition to organized group tours, solo travel—particularly for women—is highlighted as a means of self-discovery and flexibility. While solo travel offers empowerment and easier social interaction with locals, safety remains a critical consideration, with indices like the Women Danger Index used to evaluate travel security.
