I've done riding holidays by myself - I think activity holidays are best.

Don't know if this is any help .
I went on a cruise ( I was only 19 ) by myself . I had money , and wanted to see some sights of the Med.
I had a wonderful time , everyone thought I would be lonely , so they all went out of the way to include me.

I used to go on various activities and holidays with Spice (www.spiceuk.com) which were very sociable and suitable for all age groups.

I found Solos very good and would recommend them to anyone. They seem to choose good hotels and have an English rep.

Just You were not so good, although I only used them once. The Hotel was in the middle of nowhere.

Saga tends to be much older people generally. I haven't used them, but met other people on holiday with them.

Hope you find something that suits you. Check out their websites and forums.

In my opinion solos holidays are a bit expensive. What do you think?
Thanks for your good advice anyway.;)

Yes there is an annual membership. Spice isn't particularly cheap but it is a big national organisation with thousands of members and local meet-ups etc. so it's good for building a social life. After a while we formed a break away group and arranged our own trips but it's great if you want to do stuff that your friends don't.

I forgot to say they do evenings and day events too, which are good for a taster. I think you can go along as a guest to try it out.
