Creator's Key Takeaways

I've certainly traveled a lot uh with my family, with OC girl, my wife, with our daughter, with my parents, but I've also taken hundreds of trips by myself.

Cruise ships are notorious for having a solo traveler sir charge because they base their things on double occupancy.

✓Decide what kind of solo trip you want (introvert or extrovert).
✓Research your destination and know the no-go zones.
✓Choose a hotel style that suits you and avoid single traveler surcharges.
✓Arrive at your destination in the daytime for safety and ease.
✓Plan a basic agenda before you go to avoid loneliness.
✓Print out maps and hotel names in the local language.

About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description↓

Don't put off your travel dreams because you don't have anybody to travel with. Now more than ever it's totally possible to travel by yourself safely and have a great time. And traveling by yourself is not “weird.” When you're solo you're in control. You can do exactly what YOU want to do.. when YOU want to do it. You don't have to wait for someone or compromise on something that none of you actually want to do. Or stick to an agenda that nobody cares about anyway. Some things are harder: You don't have a dining buddy, or a line holder. And solo travel is more expensive per person because you're not splitting the costs.
