A third way to travel

Roam

Roamates

Solo travel isn’t “go alone” or “join a group.”
There’s a third way: Solo but Shared.

Roam with Roamates is how solo travelers live that third way using Roamate. It’s how you stay independent while choosing when and how to share parts of a trip with people who travel like you.

  • You stay solo.
  • You stay in control.
  • You decide what your trip looks like.

What it means to Roam with Roamates

Solo but shared

You’re still the main character. Share what you want. Keep what you don’t.

Matched, not random

Compatibility first. Pace, budget, vibe, boundaries.

Split, never doubled

Share the upgrade, the cabin, and the minimums without the solo penalty.

Meet‑ups, too

Dinner, hikes, day trips. Keep your own place if you want.

The shift solo travelers have been waiting for

Before
  • Pay double for the same room.

  • Wait on flaky “maybe next year” friends.

  • Join a group tour—and still face single‑supplement charges.

  • Or don’t go at all.

Now: Roamate
  • Compatibility‑first matches with people who travel like you.

  • Fair splits without turning your trip into someone else’s itinerary.

  • Share a space or keep separate stays.

  • Meet up when it fits. Roam solo when it doesn’t.

A platform designed for how solo travelers actually travel.

5
Post or join trips on RoamList

These aren’t just features. They’re how you know you’re part of a movement. Roamate is building a culture where solo travelers are finally supported, not penalized.

The lived truths we fix

You didn’t imagine these. Every solo traveler has hit them. We name them because we’ve lived them.

The balcony you skipped because it felt indulgent for one.

Fixed

The food tour you couldn’t book because it was “two‑person minimum.”

Fixed

The trip you didn’t take because your friends bailed.

Fixed

The solo surcharge that made your cruise cabin almost double.

Fixed

We built the fix.

Roamate turns these pain points into choices—split fairly, match by compatibility, roam your way.

No roulette

Why Roam with Roamates works

Other platforms connect you by availability. Roamate connects you by compatibility. That’s why it feels natural.

Compatibility first

We match by pace, planning style, budget comfort, vibe, and boundaries—so your Roamate isn’t just “who’s free.” It’s who roams like you.

FAQs

Is Roamate only for cost‑splitting?
No. Many Roamers split a room or cabin, but just as many meet up in‑destination while keeping separate stays. Solo but Shared—your choice.
What if I still want to roam solo?
Do it. Roamate enhances solo travel—it’s your back‑pocket option when you want company, savings, or both.
How do I know it’s safe?
Use in‑app chat, optional Cleared to Roam™ verification, and common‑sense travel practices. We built guardrails so feeling safe isn’t a question mark.
Why not just use Facebook groups?
Because compatibility beats availability. We’re not roulette—we’re Roamate.
