But before we start, like and subscribe to our channel, and press the notification bell so you don't miss the next video. Let's get started. 10. Ireland Irish storytelling is world-famous, immortalized in the novels of Joyce, Stoker, Weld, and the rest. Spend an evening in any Dublin pub, and you will almost certainly hear a tale for the ages, as locals spin yarns and transport listeners to a world within a world, one plank at a time. The friendly hospitality of the Irish guarantees good conversation, while the stunning breadth of nature here allows for tranquil walks and plenty of room to think, ideal for solo travel. 9. New Zealand New Zealand is a country that just gets things right. For one, it takes its reputation as one of the safest countries in the world very seriously, meaning travelers can explore in total security. But it isn't usually safety that brings individual adventurers to New Zealand. Instead, it's the dazzling landscapes, buzzing towns and cities, and convivial people that make NZ the place it is. All of the bigger towns are backpacker paradises filled with history, culture, and booze, the great trifecta of backpacking. 8. Slovenia Small but perfectly formed, Slovenia is a tremendous destination for solo travelers. The old four-seasons-in-a-day adage is very much alive, and well in a place where you can spend the morning skiing in the Alps before heading for a romantic solo sunset on the Adriatic at Piran. The capital, Ljubljana, is the perfect base for exploration. A city of friendly people and social spots, an easy bus or train from Slovenia's famous lakes and less famous postcard villages. 7. Chile In South America, Chile leads the way in terms of quality of life and, unsurprisingly, lowest crime rate. It's the perfect destination for people traveling alone thanks to its tight-knit community of backpackers and, of course, abundance of sights to see. Atacama, the driest desert in the world, is located in the north, while there's plenty to see in Santiago, the nation's capital. You won't go thirsty either thanks to the fantastic Chilean repertoire of beer and wine. It's also considered one of the best places in the world for stargazing thanks to its high altitude. 6. Portugal Portugal's most popular spots frequently pick up travel awards and plaudits alike, and the hype is not without good reason. Lisbon is a backpacker's dream, while the dreamlike beauty of Porto attracts wide-eyed adventurers from all over the world. The Algarve is much more than its budget holiday destination suggests, and the rest of the country is packed with stunning sights and spots. This European treasure boasts 800 kilometers of coastline. 5. Vietnam Vietnam's unique beauty and complicated history make it a compelling travel destination, particularly for those doing so alone. The country has grown into a popular traveling hotspot, and that's led to a thriving social scene. The well-established tourist route means it should be really easy to meet like-minded travelers to journey alongside. Halong Bay, Hanoi, and the Ha Giang Loop are three of the nation's tourist highlights. 4. Canada Canada's name is one thrown around most often when it comes to solo travel. The population has a worldwide reputation for their friendliness, and the country has everything you could want from a travel destination. Incredible off-the-grid adventure opportunities like visiting the Rockies, Niagara Falls, and Bath National Park offer up plenty to see for intrepid globetrotters. However, Toronto is considered one of the world's most multicultural cities, and Vancouver is famed for its unique urban design, stunning surroundings. 3. Botswana For those keen to explore the wonders of Africa, Botswana is likely your best bet. The country has a wealth of wildlife to appreciate and observe. With nearly 40% of its land area being devoted to national parks, the Okavango Delta, Kalahari Desert, and Chobe National Park are world-renowned safari spots, home to everything from giraffes to rhinos. Botswana is also a politically and economically steady nation, and ranks highly on safety indexes for African countries. 2. East Coast Australia It goes without saying that Australia is absolutely massive and while a fact might make it seem daunting, particularly for those of us traveling solo, most of the action is concentrated on the East Coast. There are plenty of classic routes that run from Adelaide to Brisbane and beyond, allowing intrepid explorers to visit a variety of exciting towns that each seem to have their own magnificent ocean view. 1. Iceland The aptly named Land of Fire and Ice is a magnet for nature fanatics, and perfect for those traveling solo. An abundance of caves, caverns, black sand beaches, waterfalls, volcanoes, and geysers should be plenty to keep you occupied, as the landscape and scope of this Nordic island is second to none. The country's charming capital, Reykjavik, is jam-packed with activity. Why not add the Blue Lagoon or the Lagravent Fontana to your to-do list for some solo relaxation? And the best thing about Iceland for solo travelers is the safety. Traveling alone can be a life-changing experience, and these 10 countries offer some of the best opportunities for solo travelers.
