Solo Female Travel in United States

Santa Fe, Solo travel

very safe, sooo much art and downtown is beautiful. Native American. people are very kind. its very expensive to live nonetheless worth the visit. There is an outdoor vibe. hiking and camping. swimming in the lakes and hot springs. the opera and great dining .

Washington, Solo travel

DC was amazing! Lots to see and do. Feels v safe especially in tourists area,lots of cops around as it is the capital. Food was a bit pricey but u just need to find the right restaurant. Georgetown is my fav part with lots of pretty houses and lovely shops

Olympic National Park, Group travel

I was traveling solo to Seattle and SF for a week before meeting up with my cousin in Portland, and I thought I’d visit some national parks while I was in PNW. I had wanted to go to Mt. Rainier originally but it wasn’t the right time of year, so I went to Olympic National Park instead through a tour group. It was so beautiful, the air was so fresh and clean, the sandwiches at the market you stop at were surprisingly good (with veg options!), and I quickly formed a group with 3 other solo travelers. I would highly recommend.

New York, Solo travel

My experience in New York was wonderful. I highly recommend going at least once and visiting places like the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, and the Summit Observatory. It has an incredible view. And the iconic Central Park, you can't miss it.

New York, Solo travel

Travelled to NYC solo for the first time in june. Best experience were the Broadway Shows I went to see: Wicked and MJ One. Times Square is beautiful and SOHO great for shopping. I stayed at the Upper West Side, saw the MET that didn’t have a lot of people at the opening time until 12PM.

North Carolina, Family travel

My experience in North Carolina was very pleasant. There are beautiful forests and trails and amazing local cafés and restaurants that make delicious food while considering the variety in different cultures.

New York, Solo travel

A great and amazing city. All the times I went there I had never been disappointed. Great museums, food. The people are amazing. You are never bored. There are lots of things to entertain you. One of the greatest city in the world.

New Orleans, Solo travel

Overall I felt pretty safe in the areas I visited. However I was super cautious about what streets I walked down and what time of day it was. There was only one time that things felt a bit uneasy. I walked to a restaurant as the sun was setting so it was dark out when I left. It turns out it was not a great area. That was the only time I didn’t do lots of research on the area beforehand. I felt okay since I called someone the whole way back. I stayed at a hostel and felt very safe and comfortable there. I also did a free tours by foot tour and a paid bus tour. I had a great experience with both and never felt unsafe. I especially recommend the free tours by foot tours for a more personable feel. For transportation I used the street cars whenever I couldn’t walk. To explore areas further out I booked tours.

New York, Group travel

Was my second time in NYC and I was travelling with two friends. We always felt safe. food was delicious but the amount of food is insane, we always shared two main dishes and it was enough😅 we did not do the usual touridtic stuff this time, so it was a complete different trip this time

Houston, Group travel

Definitely a great place to travel with a group- huge variety for those who like to go out or want to explore sights, events, etc The food is amazing! Definitely check event bright or just ask around for events happening in the city

Melbourne

Safe overall for a small town. No where is completely safe so you have to use your judgement. Not really much public transportation available but can use Uber / Lyft. Like anywhere else, some neighborhoods are better than others.

Los Angeles

Certain areas in LA are totally safe but others are the opposite. Tricky thing about it is you can be in a safe area then half a mile down it’s “ghetto” and unsafe. Definitely ask a local before ever booking anything.

Nashville is safe from my experience living in the city for 15 years. I never have to worry most nights when I go out. Many people are respectful and not take advantage. People are willing to help and get you to a safe place if anything does happen. I haven’t experience a harmful or bad night.

This is not the most progressive city for women travelers, the rivers are beautiful to paddleboard, solo, but due to the lack of infrastructure, I would not recommend traveling by yourself unless you had reliable transportation. There are no major transportation systems like a bus available so you would have to be fully reliant on Uber or a rental car.

yes, Philadelphia is pretty safe at night. If you were walking with a group that’s always recommended especially in Center City. There are some sketchy neighborhoods if you’re not local and we’re not aware of it. But usually the locals are very nice and soft. Philly is bomb. Definitely get a cheesesteak while you’re here, it is safe to take an Uber and it’s pretty cheap to take all across the city

Northwest Washington is generally safe as a solo female traveler. I highly recommend checking out the many Smithsonian museums. They are free so you can come in and out as you please. My favorites are the National Portrait Gallery and the Hirschhorn museums.

Relatively safe for women, great place to explore. Check out Minehaha falls or lake bde maka ska if you enjoy the outdoors. There’s a lot of great restaurants specifically in north loop as well. Check out Volsteads Emporium if you’re into speak easys!!

Chicago is safe to travel as a women during the day. At night stick to the main roads with other pedestrian around and not travel alone on the train past midnight. Downtown and areas further west past Humboldt park and west loop get more dangerous at night. Wicker park, lincoln park, and lakeview are good local neighborhoods to stay with a lot of restaurants and shops. One of my favorite burger places is SALT burger in wicker park. My favorite chinese restaurant is MCCB in Chinatown. The best italian beef is Johnnie’s beef if you can make it out near the suburbs. You can save money by getting the $5 ventra day pass for the train and bus.

Overall safe but take precautions going south or west. Keep an eye on personal belongings, don’t leave things unsecured. Great city to meet people and explore. Train systems are also very reliable. Fun city overall

One of our favorite local spots is Northport Village. It's a beautiful little town located on Northport Harbor which flows into the sound. There is a park with beautiful views right on the water lots of local spots to eat and it's very pet friendly. When you visit Northport Village be sure to notice the trolley car tracks running down through the middle of town that remind you of days gone by. Our favorite ice cream shop in town is licks they have a mix of ice cream vegan and gelato. During the summer time there are concerts in the park every week as well as movies. The winter is still a lovely time to visit as we still get gorgeous sunsets. You can access the town via public transport. The area is very friendly and safe.

Chik fila is pretty lit Stay vigilant at night There is lots of fun night life Sonic is cool, so is tacobell There's lots of cool restaurants and very diverse People are friendly there is southern hospitality.

Richmond was the confederate capital during the American Civil War, but is now a very liberal city, which gives it a unique vibe. Richmond is known for its restaurant scene. My personal favorites for fine dining are Perlys, Stella’s, Lemaire, Chez Foushee; for dive bars, Penny Lane Pub and Bamboo Cafe are the locals go-to. Just like any other city, as long as you are street smart (no walking through the dark alleys, getting too drunk in bars, etc), this city is safe.
