The idea of abandoning travel plans if friends can’t join is common, but why miss out on your dream destination just because you’re alone?
If you’re bold enough to venture out solo, you’ll want a destination that not only ensures safety but is also accommodating to lone wanderers.
A comprehensive analysis by Ubuy, evaluating over 300 cities globally, sought to pinpoint the top spots for solo travelers. The study utilized key indicators such as the safety index, cost of water, meal prices at budget-friendly eateries, average rates for a one-day stay in a beach-view hotel, and walkability.
Esteemed sources like TripAdvisor, Walk Score, and Numbeo contributed data to this study.
After extensive research, the study revealed the best city for solo travelers to relish their independence.

Ubuy determined that Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, stands as the foremost destination for solo travelers.
Scoring an impressive 95.7 in the study, Taipei is celebrated for its safety and ease of navigation, making it ideal for solo excursions. The city also boasts affordable dining options, with meals at modest restaurants averaging about $6.
Having journeyed to every corner of the globe, Drew has spent considerable time in Taiwan and understands why Taipei is favored by solo travelers.
“Taiwan is a beautiful island with an amazing culture, charming people, and incredible food. It’s extremely safe for solo travelers and hosts one of my all-time favorite dishes, Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup.”
He added, “The night markets are among the best globally, offering a plethora of stalls that serve genuine Taiwanese fare and snacks. I’ve been to this place seven times and look forward to many more visits.”
