Although traveling solo can seem daunting, it’s something that everyone should try at some point. Solo travel allows for more self-reflection, and chances are, you’ll take in more of the culture. We’ve put together a list of 32 places that are ideal for traveling alone, from the bustling streets of Taiwan to the beaches of southern Portugal. Because the majority of the US is safe for solo travel, we decided to focus more on international destinations. Vietnam Vietnam is considered one of the most female-friendly places to travel in Southeast Asia. In its largest cities, like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, you’ll find a safe and vibrant environment with markets like Ben Thank and Dong Xuan Market. The city of Vienna is just one of the reasons that Austria is a good choice for a solo trip. It’s perfectly normal to enjoy a treat by yourself at one of the city’s many upscale cafes. It’s easy to get around in Dubrovnik, Croatia, and the city offers great hiking, historic forts, and beaches that offer close-up views of the old town and city walls. Cinque Terre Life is slower in the charming seaside villages of Cinque Terre on the Italian Riviera; the winding cobblestone roads are great for meandering on your own. New Zealand New Zealand offers plenty of adventure for the single traveler: bungee jumping, boat cruises, bike rides, and hikes. Chances are you won’t even think about the fact that you’re solo.
