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.

There are a lot of connecting challenges as well with travelling in general. Doing solo traveling trips would make it easier for you to have more control over your own itinerary, destinations, and you are very much free to do about almost anything you want to. Everything is welcome, even with spur of the moment decisions and the like.

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 these times of randomness should have a tag of safety attached to it. You no longer have a person watching behind you when you go solo trips and that could lead to a higher risk of getting scammed, get stuff stolen from you, or any other incidents. So you need to be extra careful.

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.

Take in mind the length of travel time that you should get from the airport or station to the place that you are going if you are on foot. This prevents you from getting scammed by taxi drivers who are circling you around the path or who are overcharging. If the charge is way higher than what you heard from the agency or friends, get a different one.

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.

Another hack for dressing like the locals and to be able to blend in with them is to go to a local clothing shop and buy a few articles of clothing that you usually see locals are wearing. This gives you an opportunity to both blend in with them and to get souvenirs from the place as well. Just be careful not to get those that screams tourist at the faces of locals, not that there is anything entirely bad about that in some cases.

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.
