A World Wide Wolf company

Cruise the world solo. Skip the single penalty.

Mike Wolf tracks down sailings where solo travelers pay little or no single supplement, then hands the list to members before the best cabins are gone.

The solo penalty

One traveler. Often double the fare.

Cruise cabins are priced for two. Book one of them on your own and most lines add a single supplement, frequently 50 to 100 percent on top of the base fare, for the exact same room. It is the quiet tax on cruising alone.

Here is what most solo cruisers never hear: lines waive or cut that supplement all the time. On select sailings. For a set number of cabins. Those are the trips worth catching, and they are the first to sell out.

How it works

Three steps. No catch.

1

Join the list

Start on the free Crew tier with nothing but your email. No card, no commitment.

2

Get the deals

We send solo sailings with the supplement waived or reduced, the cabin, the price, and exactly where to book.

3

Book direct, keep the savings

You book straight with the line or your own agent. We never take a cut or add a markup. The membership is the business.

Good solo cabins are limited, so the list goes out in waves. Captains and Commodores see every deal the instant it lands and get the first few hours to themselves. First Mates get it the same day. Free members get a locked preview right away and can open the deal 24 hours later, or unlock it instantly by upgrading.

Your expert

Meet Mike Wolf

Mike Wolf built his career in real estate investing. Semi-retired now, he spends his time doing the thing he loves most, traveling the world. He jokes that he is loosely homeless, because home is wherever the next sailing takes him.

For years Mike has quietly found the solo cruise deals most travelers never see, and booked them for himself. Solo Cruise Hacks is him handing that list to everyone else. Behind it sits Mike and his team at World Wide Wolf, curating every sailing so the deals in your inbox are the ones they would book themselves.

Why members trust the list

Built for solo cruisers, not the lines.

No markup, ever

We are paid by members, not by cruise lines. The price you see is the price they offer.

Solo first

Every deal is judged on one thing: whether a solo traveler actually comes out ahead.

First-mover access

The earlier your tier, the better your pick of limited solo cabins.

Questions

Good to know.

Is it really free?

Yes. The Crew tier costs nothing and stays that way. You get real deals by email. Paid tiers simply see them earlier.

Do you book the cruise for me?

No. We send you the sailing, the cabin, the price, and where to book. You book direct with the line or your own travel agent and keep every dollar of the saving.

How do you find the deals?

Mike and his sources watch for sailings where lines waive or cut the single supplement, then we check the numbers before anything goes on the list.

Can I cancel?

Anytime, from your account. First Mate stops at the end of the month. Captain runs for the year you paid for.

How often will I hear from you?

Only when there is something worth sending. Some weeks that is several sailings, some weeks one. We do not pad the list.
