DEFINITIONS FOR TOUR OPERATORS WISHING TO BE LISTED:

Travel-quest's single parent holidays section lists travel companies offering dedicated single parent family holidays, companies making special arrangements for lone parents, or offering special deals for the single parent family within their general holiday offers. We are looking for companies who offer trips where any single supplement is reduced or done away with altogether, and where child reductions, discounts and offers are based on a single adult booking (rather than two as is the norm) and/or where special consideration is given to lone parent families (e.g. in rooming arrangements, child care, practical help and facilities provided). We are particularly interested in listing dedicated holidays and vacations where single parent families can meet other similar families. We also include single parent travel clubs and charities that provide holidays and breaks for their members.
