Best Places For Solo Travel

5. Bustling Japan

Japan makes for one of the top destinations for solo backpackers to visit in Asia. There is a considerable growth in economy and innovation in Japan that makes for a truly unique experience for such a small island of land. Favorite for tourists from across the globe, Japan is home to a bustling population that is consistently on the go, perfect for restless globetrotters looking to make the most of new cultures that offer 24/7 excitement and activity. Solo guests here tend to feel very safe and respected as a result of the kind and traditional culture. Dressing is a combination of reserved and professional, but the community is sure to be open-minded to foreign styles, and a vast majority are fluent in English or other languages, making for an inclusive culture. Public transportation is affordable and efficient, although a little crowded, and sure to take visitors to top spots such as the Tokyo Skytree or Kyoto.
