Travel index
Safety:Very safe
Guam is generally quite safe for solo female travelers. It's a U.S. territory and follows the same laws and regulations. The locals are friendly and the island is quite developed and tourist-friendly, with many police stations and constant patrols. Like anywhere, it's always necessary to take basic precautions like avoiding deserted areas at night and keeping an eye on your belongings, but on the whole, female solo travelers should feel comfortable in Guam.
Transport:Easy
Guam is fairly compact and navigable, with clear signs and many easily accessible tourist spots. Its small size and good road conditions make getting around pretty effortless. However, a lack of public transportation options may pose some inconveniences.
Things to do:Interesting
Guam offers a variety of adventures that make it an interesting place to visit. The island is chock-full with natural beauty which includes lovely beaches for sunbathing and snorkeling, lush tropical forests for hiking, and underwater wonders for diving. Besides, the rich culture and history of this destination can be explored through its war memorials, local cuisine, and historic structures. But despite all these, the absence of any major amusement parks or universally recognized landmarks may not fully cater to those seeking more mainstream or high adrenaline activities.
Food:Above average
Guam offers a delightful culinary experience that blends local and international flavors. As Guam is a melting pot of diverse cultures, its food is distinctively flavorful. Local dishes like Kelaguen and Tinaktak highlight this unique blend. Seafood is also incredibly fresh and abundant, particularly coconut crabs and snapper. There's also a wide selection of international food options, from American and Asian cuisine to Italian and Mexican. While the island's food scene does offer a great diversity, it may lack in some specific international cuisines compared to larger, metropolitan areas.
Budget:Moderate
Guam can provide an average budget-friendly experience. Although flights can be pricey as it's an island destination, once there, accommodation ranges from budget hostels to fancy hotels. Eating out can be cost-effective with many affordable local restaurants, but imported goods and activities such as diving can increase costs.
