We met up with 9-time Trafalgar guest Isabelle Horemans, a 45-year disability support worker from Grobbendonk (near Antwerp in Belgium), to find out why she loves touring with Trafalgar to the United States as a solo traveller<\/a> – and what makes her come back time and time again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I work as disability support worker and I love my job, but once or twice a year I need to get away from it all, from my home, my friends. I need new experiences; new sounds, smells and tastes. This is where Trafalgar comes in.”<\/p>\nIsabelle Horemans<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

What was your first experience touring with Trafalgar?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

“I met some people from Ireland and luckily enough they told me about touring with Trafalgar. The rest is history! Just after my 31st birthday, I recovered from ulcerative colitis and decided to travel to the United States to see New England in the fall<\/a>. I loved the USA: especially how friendly most people were, the nature and the food. In the fall of 2011, I flew all by myself to San Francisco and went on the \u2018Adventures of the Wild Northwest’ tour (no longer available<\/em>). Since then I’ve only travelled with Trafalgar or on my own separately. My next 7 tours were all equally wonderful.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isabelle is one of Trafalgar’s many female solo travellers<\/a> who explore the world safely, without stress or time-consuming pre-trip planning. And they are also famous for bonding with like-minded explorers on tour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out Isabelle’s past trips with Trafalgar below; and note that, because we update our tours on a regular basis to keep them fresh and interesting, only the linked tours are currently active for 2022. Could this be your year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
