This is the classic Flash Pack formula – itineraries filled with immersive experiences – but at a more relaxed pace and a more affordable price. Perfect for those seeking balance from their global adventures.

So, what does that actually mean? It’s about slowing things down without compromising on quality. You’ll visit the same amazing locations, but fewer of them in one trip. Your activities will still be culturally immersive, but with minimal physical challenges. You’ll stay in the same carefully chosen three- to four-star hotels, with more free time to actually enjoy them.

FAQs

How do I find the right activity level?

Every Flash Pack trip strikes a different balance – whether you’re after an all-out adventure or slower immersion. The Physicality and Downtime meters on each trip page make finding your perfect adventure that much easier. Here’s what they mean:

Physicality –

Chilled: Our most laid-back adventures, with zero pressure. Think easy hikes, gentle kayaking and all the wow with less of the adrenaline.

Active: This trip follows the original Flash Pack formula. A curated mix of adventure and ease – volcano climb one day, yoga the next. Just the right amount of thrill.

Challenging: Big adventures. Big views. Big sense of achievement. If you’re generally fit and willing to push yourself, you’ll love every moment. No training plans needed.

Downtime – 

This shows how much free time you’ll get on the trip – from Less (think full days of back-to-back activities) to Balanced, with built-in breathing room to relax and recharge.

Why are these trips cheaper than other Flash Pack adventures?

In short, the more you do, the more you spend. While most of our adventures are fast-paced and packed full of activities, our Chilled adventures are more relaxed with less time spent travelling and more free days and half-days to chill out in each location. You can expect the same high standard of accommodation and bespoke experiences but with fewer inclusions (such as meals out and excursions), which helps to keep costs down.

Why should you go on a Chilled adventure?

Adventure travel doesn’t have to mean high-stakes activities like mountaineering or whitewater rafting. At the same time, ‘chilled’ doesn’t mean your trip will be any less exciting. This style of adventure is designed to take you away from the tourist trail into the heart and soul of a destination, with time to really immerse yourself in the local culture. If you prefer to travel at a more leisurely pace with a less intense schedule and no physically demanding activities, then these trips might be just what you’re looking for. The hardest part? Deciding where to go…

At Flash Pack, we ensure you’ll get the most out of your Balanced solo adventure with our handcrafted group travel packages. Learn more about how it works.

Why should you embark on a group solo trip?

We understand group solo travel can be daunting. But it just might be one of the best things you’ll ever do. Taking on new challenges is what we’re all about at Flash Pack and stepping that little bit outside your comfort zone is often a revelation.

You just need to be brave enough to take that first step – and trust us to take care of the rest… In return, you’ll meet like-minded people – all in their 30s, 40s and 50s – and make amazing new friendships along the way.

Why choose Flash Pack for your group solo travel adventure?

Back in 2014, our co-founder and keen traveller, Radha Vyas, spotted a gap in the group-tour market for people in their 30s, 40s and 50s. So, she set up Flash Pack to deliver immersive, experience-led group adventures for like-minded people at the same life stage. The vast majority of Flashpackers (90%, in fact) arrive solo, before travelling together – and leave having made a whole bunch of new friends.
