Do it! I say this because I did a bus trip to different quilt shops two years ago by myself and knew no one....still had so much fun! Trips such as this are chartered buses, with bath rooms, air conditioning/heat. Ours included lunch served at one of the shops, and the guides served as fun interesting game playing women! You'll probably have a seat mate to chat with, and the women are very friendly. I'd do it again in a heart beat.
