Solo Female Travel in Thailand

Solo travel experience

My first solo trip in Asia, and it was incredible! I was very scared to go solo, but as soon as I landed in Bangkok, and checked in in my hostel, that disappeared. I was so well received by dozens of other solo travelers. There’s always some activity happening and group going out, so you don’t really feel alone. I traveled from north to south, and checked some cool spots. What I would say is: the islands of the southeast side should be your N1 priority. They are gorgeous, way less crowded and more natural. It’s just breathtaking, cheap and a good vibe. I did Chiang Mai in the north, which was  amazing because of the festival of flowers that it was happening, but the islands in the south or way better. Phuket is not very nice (older Russian everywhere…). Phi phi island was cool for the diving, the excursions and the parties, but zero nature in the island. Definitely go and enjoy! I feel like is one of the best places to solo travel as a women in Asia. Felt really safe (stayed in female rooms in hostels, only went out at night in groups - with at least one female, etc)

Thailand is an incredible country. If you have time, I advise you not to stay in just one city or region. You also have to go north, south, to the capital... to really discover all aspects of the country (the jungles, the temples, the beaches...)

Solo travel experience

Safest country in South East Asia by far. I lived there for 4 years including the time during Covid. The culture, food, nature and travel community is what inspired me to live there for so long. I studied Buddhism & yoga in-depth as well as cultivated the courage to facilitate others in yoga & meditation. Forever grateful for that experience

Solo travel experience

I visited Bangkok, Phuket, phi phi islands, Ao Nang and Koh Samui ! Favourite place - Bangkok and Krabi Least favourite but still nice - Koh Samui Normal prices for transport , great street food but be careful with water. Friendly people everywhere. Make sure you don’t litter and disturb

Solo travel experience

I stayed a few month in Thailand (Bangkok, krabi, chiang mai, koh samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao) and loved every minute! People are amazingly friendly, food and culture is great, I practiced Muay Thai for the whole time in all the places and it is a great way to get into the local traditions and to meet locals. It’s really safe and easy to navigate (transportation, English speaking people, internet…).

Solo travel experience

My first ever solo backpacking trip and it’s been incredible! I’m very much a planner and organiser back home so I have struggled a little bit to not plan too far ahead and go with the flow. I’ve made incredible friends and have made the most of every opportunity and experience

Solo travel experience

I did a volunteer in a yoga school and for me was amazing! I meet a lot of people and i learn a lot! The food was incredible!! (No spicy if you aske for it) I feel safe all the time and i always trust destiny!

Solo travel experience

A very easy place to travel to as a solo woman. It feels very safe, you constantly meet fellow travelers, and the locals are super welcoming. Everything is easy and flowing, as Thailand has been accustomed to tourism for a long time now.

Solo travel experience

Thailand is so diverse and there should be something for everyone. Whether its the beautiful beach in the south or stunning green sceneries of the jungle in the north. Thai cuisine is definitely one of the best worldwide and its unbeaten in its price. Overall you can have an amazing backpacking solo trip as its very solo traveller friendly on a low budget.

Solo travel experience

There are a lot of temples in Thailand, I would recommend you to go to a few but don't waste your time visiting 71626732 temples. North Thailand has a nice weather, I stayed in Chiang Mai and in a meditation retreat called Pa Pae, in the way between Chiang Mai and Pai. The last one is also a city you should visit. I felt safe, everything is easy, lots of atms, every place has good food.

Thailand is very very safe and cosy. Food is great people are friendly, Kohphangan is one of the bet places on earth.you can ask anyone on the street what you are looking for and everywhere is good restaurants and yoga schools

I lived in Thailand for 5 years and traveled all over the place alone - it's totally safe. Of course, like anywhere, be aware of your surroundings and don't do risky things. Thailand and the Thai people are amazing.
