This sounds odd, but when having a smear test I had a lot of pain. Although not a virgin, I never seem to have widened 'down below' and the tightness causes a sharp pain when the implement used for the smear test is put inside me. The doctor told me to come back in a couple of weeks and she'd try again but I am now worried that I am tighter than I should be and that it's going to cause me further trouble. Anyone else had this problem and any tips on how to loosen a bit? (Except by having more sex).

If you are having a normal pain free love life then the chances are high that the tightness is muscle contraction due to nerves.

Everyone ( well everyone i know) gets pain at smear test - its normally fear and nerves which make it impossible to do smear.
You need to be calm and think about something totally different when she is doing it - it does literally only take a minute. Think about your holiday and before you know it it will be over.
Good luck

it could be your pelvic bone as opposed to your vagina size. the speculum could be pressing on the bone when they start to open it up.
if you have no problems during penis insertion, i would say try and tolerate it for the smear.
for sex - tight is good.
