Tips For Solo Traveling Trips

By Christa Jarvis


There are a lot of things you can achieve with travelling all by yourself. This makes it a lot more fun and sort of like a religious experience in a pilgrimage of sorts as long as when it is done successfully. Small mistakes may happen from time to time, but the feeling of achieving this is beyond what can be imagined.

What you can from this are valuable experiences and advantages in this type of travel. Solo traveling trips could give you a handful of freedom and enjoyment without having to worry about a partner who might not be enjoying the same things as you. The random decisions you make will never have to be thought twice in consideration with the other person.

These random times might consist of night drives just because you feel like it, or taking different routes to a destination, or having too many stopovers. This could be anything and everything at the same time and you are free to do all these without worrying about dragging another person with you. You can sign even sign up for mini classes in surfing without worrying that someone is waiting.

But of course, the primary concern is safety. Travelling with a buddy or family is entirely different in the degrees of safety. With someone watching your back, you could feel at ease whenever someone tries to scam you, steal something from you, or when you get lost. Therefore, you are at your own mercy of your own safety.

It is much better if you can contact a traveling agency to assist you with surveying the area first if you do not know anyone who have been to those places before. They can provide you with a general or accurate knowledge on the personality of that area. This lets you know what you can expect from that place.

You should take note about the travel times from wherever you are to a certain location through taxi. This is when you are on foot, and there is no other way around. Ask first the agency or your friend on the fare and the time it takes, if this does not match with what the cab driver is asking, then find a different cab.

The way you dress up should be highly considered especially in heavily religious countries or areas that take this seriously. It would be a good idea to respect their culture by wearing clothes appropriately, which most of the time should not show a lot of skin. This prevents you from catching glares from locals.

One thing you can do in order to not stick out like a sore thumb in the streets is to buy clothes in their local shops. You would visually get the idea what the locals wear whether they are just strolling around or going to work. Getting those clothes would also be a nice way of taking souvenirs related to that place.

Some agencies might offer you higher prices if you are traveling all by yourself. You need to ask them for more details on this. Also, you can ask them if there are certain arrangements that can lower the prices.
