Testimonials

John N.

I downloaded the guide on a whim before a solo trip to Portugal, and honestly, it changed the game. The packing checklist alone saved me from overthinking, and I ended up meeting people in the exact way the guide described.

Andrew Candish

Solid. No fluff.

Actually useful. That’s rare.

Chris Murphy

This guide gave me the push I needed to finally book a solo trip I'd been putting off for years. Clear, straight-up advice, and none of the 'find yourself' nonsense. Just real-world stuff that helped me not feel like a total noob abroad.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got Questions? We've got answers!

What’s in the full solo travel guide?

The Break From The Pack guide is a streamlined, no-fluff resource built for men who want to travel solo with confidence. It covers top destinations, gear recs, safety tips, how to meet people on the road, and real sample itineraries to get you started.

Who runs this site?

This was started by a solo traveler (just like you) who got tired of generic blogs, overpriced tours, and influencer fluff. Everything here is built from real experience to help men travel smarter and go further, and learn about themselves in the process.

Can I book a trip through you?

Not at the moment, but we’re working on it. Soon you’ll be able to book a call to get help planning your trip, or have us build it for you. If you're interested, make sure you grab the guide and get on the email list.

Is the guide really free?

Yes, no catch. The First 24 is completely free to download. You get instant access to practical info and insights from real-world experience. We want you to actually use it, not just collect another PDF.

Are you a travel agent?

Not exactly. Right now, we're focused on empowering solo travelers through guides and resources. That said, we’re exploring trip planning support and 1:1 help, so stay tuned.

Is this just for men?

The guide and site were designed with solo male travelers in mind, but anyone who resonates with the message is welcome here. Our focus is on honest, independent, no BS travel for whoever wants it.
