Solo travellers and shared rooms.

How a shared room works
On many of its regular group tours, Europamundo does not require a solo traveller to pay the full single room supplement. The traveller pays a smaller supplement, and Europamundo finds a roommate of the same gender, who may be a different age, to share a twin room. The amount is on your quote.
What a twin can be
In some hotel chains a twin room has one double bed and a sofa bed. A traveller who chooses a shared room has to accept that, and to settle the sleeping arrangements with the roommate, without Europamundo or the hotel.
If no roommate is found
Europamundo’s Why Europamundo page says that if no other traveller is available, the traveller receives a single room at no additional cost. The terms page does not repeat that sentence, so ask us to confirm it for the tour and the dates before you tell a client.
