The trend of solo travel is reaching unprecedented levels, but an increasing number of young explorers are also searching for meaningful connections along the way. A recent EF Ultimate Break study conducted in September 2024 found that 46% of Gen Z travelers experience loneliness, even as they venture across the globe.

To address this, EF Ultimate Break, a premier travel company for individuals aged 18–35, is launching a unique initiative designed to bring solo travelers together. This Valentine’s Day, they are fostering friendships and helping adventurers find like-minded companions through their Travel BFF MatchMaker program.

“We know there are countless people eager to travel but struggling to find the perfect travel companion,” said Heather Leisman, President of EF Ultimate Break. “Whether your friends don’t share your wanderlust or your schedules don’t align, we’re here to match you with fellow adventurers who do.”

Starting February 6, EF Ultimate Break will launch the Travel BFF MatchMaker program, which makes finding a compatible travel partner simple:

2. EF Ultimate Break’s dedicated team will pair travelers with similar interests between now and February 13, 2025.
