Solo travelling is a liberating experience, as it provides freedom of choice, self-discovery and flexibility. In the case of an individual who intends to travel, safety, convenience, and lively experiences are important.
Japan
Japan is a super destination for individual travellers because of its safety, cleanliness and a very efficient transport system. Such cities as Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka possess a blend of tradition and modernity with tranquil temples, busy markets and modern-day sights. Public transport works well in navigating the country by solo travellers, and one can also find plenty of capsule hotels and hostels to stay at cheaply.
New Zealand
This is a small country with friendly people and few crimes, thus perfect for solo travel. New Zealand has activities that can accommodate all levels of fitness, such as hiking the Tongariro Alpine Crossing and visiting the fjords in the South Island.
Portugal
Portugal is a land of scenic beauty, ancient towns and a kind and benevolent culture that beckons individual travellers. Small cities like Lisbon and Porto are compact, walkable and full of cultural experiences - both old monuments and a bustling street life. The cafe culture and large number of hostels in Portugal enable one to easily make acquaintances with the locals and other travellers.
Canada
It has multicultural and well-connected cities such as Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal, and ranks high in the safety of its cities. Lone travellers will have access to urban attractions, experience nature across the national parks, or take up seasonal skiing, hiking, and wildlife viewing.
Thailand
Thailand is one of the most popular destinations amongst solo travellers who want to enjoy the richness of the culture and travel at cheap rates. Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and the islands are rich in experiences, including street food tours and temples, beaches and nightlife. The tourism infrastructure of Thailand is well developed, such as hostels, guided tours, transport services, and so on; therefore, it can be easily navigated by independent travellers.
Travelling alone enables one to learn new cultures, interact with different people and explore places without having to compromise. The selection of the destinations that are focused on safety, accessibility, and interaction with the culture can turn an ordinary trip into an enriching one.
