What is best Travel Tips for Women

by Rubi Ahsan Associate S.E.O Consultant

In recent years, as many as 32 million American women have traveled independently, and as this travel trend for single women grows, the online and traditional travel industries are rushing to meet the demand. Airlines, travel websites and tour operators are aware of and responding to this dynamic demographic - good news for the adventurous woman.

While women should always take the necessary precautions and be aware of cultural norms when traveling abroad, there are great benefits to traveling alone. Traveling alone provides accessibility, allowing you to meet more people than traveling with a group and giving them a unique glimpse into life of the host culture.
Below are tips to make the solo travel experience safer and more satisfying.


Before You Go

Before boarding a plane and heading to your destination, learn about the country's geographic and historical location; learn about the country's artistic and cultural happenings, and practice some key local phrases to enrich your trip. Don't forget to examine some of the prevailing cultural norms and belief systems, especially those related to women.

When packing, remember that less is more. Traveling with minimal equipment not only increases your movement economy, but also decreases your chances of being targeted by thieves or pickpockets.

Finding expert travel advice has never been easier, especially for discerning travelers. A great way to learn more about your destination is to get scoops from other female travelers who have been there. There are online travel sites with regular experienced travel writers and bloggers, including WorldHum.


When You Arrive

It is wise to register with the consulate upon arrival at your destination. As a security measure, your country's consulate may need to contact you in the event of an emergency or if your family needs to be notified of your whereabouts.
As a woman traveling alone, insurance can come in the form of a cell phone. While you have to rely a lot more on your intuition than on a cell phone in a tricky situation, it can be very helpful to know that you can call ahead to reserve a hotel room or contact a friend. If you plan on being in a country for a while, having an unlocked GSM phone with a local prepaid SIM card is a great option.

If you plan on taking cash out or staying in remote areas for extended periods of time, a money belt is a must. Remember, timing is everything: As a woman traveling alone, going to an ATM in the middle of the night can be dangerous. Make sure you have enough money to not only get from point A to point B, but also enough to last as long as you plan on staying.

If you are going for a walk in a town or village, write down the name of your hotel and note the landmarks. When taking a taxi, always try to get the taxi number or license plate number before you leave, in case you run into any problems along the way. By agreeing the rate in advance and having the exact change, you will avoid being overcharged. Avoid traveling alone in a taxi at night unless absolutely necessary.

Traveling alone can be a liberating experience, and keeping friends and family informed about your travels is a great way to ease bouts of loneliness. Blogging about your experiences is a great way to share your journey with those who can't reach you.


Staying Safe

If you are traveling alone, it is a good option to choose a lively hotel in a central part of the city. This not only makes you less visible, but also gives you the opportunity to meet other passing travelers.

If you are on the road, try to travel during the day or plan your trip to arrive in the morning. The stress of arriving at an unfamiliar place abroad is only exacerbated at night.

Adopting a confident posture and walking with intention is one of the best ways to stay safe and avoid hassle. Even if you're not sure of your destination, people will intuitively less bother you if you seem to be going somewhere. The way you carry yourself and the confidence you exude speaks volumes about passersby.

Ultimately, as a woman who travels the world alone, no matter where you land or how you arrive, you need to keep some basic truths in mind: your intelligence is your ally; intuition is your guide and adventure yours.


Everything that comes out of the daily routine, travel! Get in the car, explore a new city, and eat a new dish. We recently traveled to Morris, CT to visit friends. On the way back we stopped at a local dairy. I asked if we could pay for a small ice cream tasting.

Everything was local and we had a great experience. They even let us in the back to see the daily kitchen routines. When a relationship breaks down, you want to pack your bags and take the plunge alone. And that's a good thing; everything that comes out of the daily routine travels! Get in the car, explore a new city, and eat a new dish.
