About us

Flash Pack is an award-winning premium social adventure company for solo travelers. We curate spectacular trips around the world that empower people looking for challenge and escapism. Our mission is to create a great group dynamic between like-minded travellers, a goal that has seen us grow a powerful community of over 150,000 Flashpackers in more than 15 countries. Flash Pack is the brainchild of die-hard adventurists, Radha Vyas and Lee Thompson. Together, they want to change the face of the industry, shaking off tired old clichés associated with group travel. Their vision is to create comfort-busting adventures that really get under the skin of a place via local and unique experiences. Think all the thrill of backpacking, elevated by boutique hotels and seamless itineraries. Flash Pack has tapped into a unique demand at a unique time for solo travel. Since we launched in 2014, business has boomed, with triple-digit year-on-year growth. We’ve also won a string of awards and picked up wall-to-wall press coverage. Perhaps our proudest achievement, however, is the people at the heart of our adventures. In an age when the world is retreating behind screens, our trips spark meaningful connections and lifelong friendships. We are building a movement of like-minded solo travellers all over the globe. And we’re riding the tide of change at a pivotal moment for the industry.

  • We had the pleasure of chatting with the incredible Tiffany Boone, who stars as Sarabi, in Mufasa. She opened up about the power of female friendships and the unique sense of safety and belonging they bring. "My girlfriends are sisters to me... when we come together, we can just breathe. You know that feeling when you're with a good girlfriend and you're like, 'Oh, I'm safe.' It is so needed." At Flash Pack, we're on a mission to create one million meaningful friendships. 🧡 Mufasa is out in cinemas today – don’t miss it! 🦁🍿 #Mufasa #TiffanyBoone

    When I saw this photo, I burst with pride. Last Wednesday, 5AM at Heathrow. Our London team was waiting at arrivals. They'd woken up early to welcome their teammates, flying in from 15 different countries for our end-of-year celebrations 🌏🎄 Building a business is brutal. Most days are about fighting fires and solving problems. But then you get moments like this: ✨ Watching your team care enough to wake up at dawn. ✨ Realising you've built something bigger than yourself. ✨ Seeing the culture you imagined come alive. Don't get me wrong... The numbers, the growth - they're (very) important. But the real magic of business? The humans who make it all possible 🩵 Yes, flying everyone to London is expensive. Yes, it would be easier to do everything on Zoom. But connection isn't something you can just cut. It's the whole point! Right? ♻️ Repost if you agree. _ 👋🏽 I'm Radha Vyas, CEO & Co-Founder of Flash Pack, connecting solo travelers on life-changing social adventures. Follow for daily posts on the journey!

  • "I'm going to be very vulnerable and tell you a story" Jason Hand Sometimes life has a way of steering us away from the door we thought we wanted, guiding us instead toward the one that was meant to open all along. In this heartfelt moment, Jason shares how an unexpected redirection led him to direct Disney's latest Adventure, #Moana2.

  • We sat down with Moana 2's brilliant filmmakers Dana Ledoux Miller (writer-director) and Jason Hand (director) to explore the heart of Disney's latest adventure through the lens of friendship. 💫 In this inspiring interview, they share 3 lessons on friendship we can all take away from Moana 2—a story that celebrates the power of community and connection. "Part of being a leader—and a really good friend—is knowing the strengths of the people around you and trusting that they will show up for you." At Flash Pack, we’re on a mission to spark one million new friendships, with 80% of Flashpackers staying in touch long after their adventures. 💛 Moana 2 is in cinemas across the UK today! 🎥🍿 #Moana2 #FlashPack #FriendshipGoals

  • It’s funny to think that I was debating whether to even go on Flash Pack’s trip to Argentina, back in January. I’ve been a solo traveller all my adult life but – having just moved to Chicago from Minnesota – I felt like I needed time to get settled in the city. At the last minute, I booked it. Lo and behold, I ended up meeting three girls I really clicked with – all of whom happen to live in Chicago. To this day, I’m struck by the impossible coincidence of it all. There’s this immediate sense of communal connection and joy “The Chicago Girls”, as we were lovingly dubbed by others on our Argentina trip, all have wildly different jobs. I work in advertising tech, Samantha Cutler an attorney, Jamie Epner a customer success manager and Andrea Fischer a structural engineer. If you think about the way that people typically connect as adults, there’s no way we would have met outside Flash Pack. We have zero career overlap. Plus, once you get past the glory days of college, where you just can spend all your time with friends, it’s harder to meet people. Whether it’s because you’re going out less, or have more demanding jobs, there’s a ton of different reasons why – beyond 30 – those organic moments where you become good pals start to fizzle out. But there’s something unique about travel because, regardless of where you’re from, you’re typically very receptive to those around you. Solo travellers, in particular, make very easy and good friends because most want to meet people; they see that as part of the adventure and experience.  I felt this was clearly the case with my Flash Pack group, as nearly everyone arrived solo. Plus, the groups are small, with such lovely Pack Leaders (Cintia, our Argentina guide, was a ray of sunshine), which makes it easier to form relationships from the outset.
