If you\u2019re new to travelling solo, you might be worried about feeling lonely, bored, or uncomfortable on your trip. You might be afraid to do things by yourself, or you might feel like you have to do something every second of the day to stay busy. But we\u2019re here to tell you that solo travel<\/a> is so much fun, plus you\u2019ve got the freedom to spend your trip exactly how you want! So whether you love to eat out, relax at the beach, go museum-hopping or bike-riding – or whether you want to try something totally new – here are 12 of the best things to do when travelling solo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"man<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1. Go sightseeing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re travelling solo but you\u2019re not sure where to start\u2026 Why not go sightseeing! You can start by making a list of all the things you want to see in the town or city and tick them off one by one. Or you can simply wander around a neighbourhood, browse through markets, relax in the parks, take in the sights and sounds\u2026 And just go with the flow. The best part about travelling solo is that you\u2019re free to wander wherever you like at your own pace, try listening to some music on your headphones while you stroll. Take advantage and go exploring!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Visit a museum<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you like solo sightseeing, you probably enjoy going to museums and galleries alone too. When you\u2019re travelling with friends or family, you often don\u2019t have time and space to wander and linger at different exhibits. But when you\u2019re travelling solo, you can take all the time you want to admire your favourite works, skip the things that don\u2019t interest you, and soak up the peaceful atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Take a class<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of our top solo travel tips is to take a class. From cooking classes where you can sample the local cuisine, to language lessons, dance classes, or traditional arts and crafts workshops, you\u2019re sure to find a fascinating subject to dive into on your trip. After all, travel is all about learning new things – and you might even pick up a new skill to take home!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Join a tour<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re travelling solo, you don\u2019t have to do it all on your own. One of the best things to do is join an organised tour for a day or a few days – and let someone else take care of the planning. It can be a great way to explore a new destination with local guides and do things you just can\u2019t do on your own. Plus you\u2019ll meet other travellers to share your experiences and have a blast! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re new to a destination and want to get your bearings, you might like to spend part of your trip travelling solo and part travelling with an organised tour. So, if you\u2019re exploring India, you could join Trafalgar\u2019s 4-day Nepal Adventure<\/a> to Kathmandu, or if you\u2019re in Africa, join our 4-day Zimbabwe tour to see the Victoria Falls<\/a>. Get a taste of New Zealand\u2019s North Island with our 3-day Jewels of the Bay<\/a> tour or see Hong Kong with our 4-day Hong Kong and Macau Experience. If you want to get to know the big cities, why not join our 5-day New York Explorer<\/a>, 6-day Amsterdam Explorer<\/a>, or our popular London<\/a> and Paris Explorers<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Go to a show<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of our favourite things about travelling is getting immersed in the culture, art and music of your destination. And if you\u2019re travelling solo, one of the best ways to do that is by going to a show. Whether you go to a concert, a play, a ballet, an opera, or a small gig at a bar, you\u2019re sure to be entertained. Plus, since you\u2019ll be enjoying the show the whole time, you\u2019re less likely to feel awkward by yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Relax by the water<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s a pool or a beach – who doesn\u2019t love spending some soothing time by the water. You can soak up the sun, go for a dip, do some people watching, try a new water sport like paddle boarding\u2026 Or simply kick back and enjoy the weather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Try something new<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Looking for solo travel ideas? Why not get out of your comfort zone and try something adventurous. While you could get some thrills with sports like skydiving or bungee jumping, it doesn\u2019t have to be that extreme. Maybe you\u2019d like to take on a scenic hike, or try surfing or kayaking. You could even try out a new cuisine or sign up for some karaoke. Test your limits and make the most of your solo journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Have a spa day<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While it\u2019s great to push yourself and try new things, it\u2019s also important to take care of yourself. And what better way to pamper yourself than with a spa day. You could get a massage, relax in a sauna, get your nails done\u2026 It\u2019s up to you! It\u2019s all about enjoying some quality \u201cme\u201d time and the best part is that it\u2019s something you\u2019d probably prefer to do solo anyway. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"woman<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

9. Do something you love<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A solo adventure is a perfect time to indulge in your unique interests. When you\u2019re travelling with friends or family, you often have to compromise on activities because you don\u2019t have time or no one else is interested. When you\u2019re travelling solo, it\u2019s all about what you want to do. Maybe you love visiting ancient Greek ruins or admiring Gothic architecture. Maybe you want to find the best croissant in Paris or wander around obscure galleries. No one\u2019s there to tell you they don\u2019t want to visit another museum or garden or bakery – so go for it and do your thing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Read a book<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you need a break from activities but don\u2019t want to spend your day at the hotel, why not enjoy some reading. You can find a cosy cafe or a leafy park and finally dig into that book you\u2019ve been meaning to read. After all – it\u2019s your holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"woman<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

11. Go bike riding<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you want to get a new perspective, it\u2019s time to get on two wheels. Hiring a bike and cycling around is a great way to see a new city\u2026 Plus you\u2019ll cover more ground and get some exercise! You\u2019ll find plenty of cycling haven cities<\/a> in places like the Netherlands, Scandinavia, France, Canada, Australia and the USA. Just remember to wear a helmet, stay in the bike lanes, and brush up the local cycling rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12. Take yourself out for dinner<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just because you\u2019re travelling solo, doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t go out on fancy dates. Eating is one of the greatest joys of travelling, and you shouldn\u2019t miss out just because you\u2019re on a solo journey. While going to a restaurant alone might feel uncomfortable at first, you can ease into it. Try taking your phone or a book if it makes you more comfortable. Then simply enjoy the food! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
