First solo trip: where to go and how to stay safe

The best first solo trips are places where solo travelers are normal, not novel.

The itinerary

Top picks: Portugal, Japan, Ireland, New Zealand. Stay in social hostels or boutique hotels, join one walking tour on day one, share your itinerary with someone home.

Budget note: solo travel costs more per person (no splitting) — budget 30% above couple prices.
