Voilà je dispose d'un peu plus de 3 mois devant moi pour voyager. J'avais pensé à l'Asie du Sud-Est (Singapour, Cambodge, Laos, Sud Thaïlande et Malaisie ouest) comme destination. Je pars seule en sac à dos, j'ai 24 ans. J'ai souvent voyagé de cette façon mais cette fois çi je suis seule. Je connais la Thaïlande pour l'avoir fait l'année dernière.
Mon départ s'effectuera autour du 20 nov pour 3 mois. mais voilà malgré ma forte envie pour faire ce voyage, j'ai peur de m'ennuyer, de me sentir seule et de déprimée loin de tout...J'aimerai vos avis. Ce voyage me tient tellement à coeur, j'y pense sans arrêt et j'ai peur de regretter si je ne le fais pas...Tout le monde autour de moi me dit que c'est risquer de partir seule etc...Je n'ai pas peur de se côté c'est seulement la solitude qui me fait peur...
Je vais pas tarder à prendre mon billet, un aller simple pour Singapour dans un 1er temps...Je me renseigne pour les visas, vaccins, les rdv sont pris...
J'attends vos témoignages avec impatience.
Merci encore
Camille
je suis un peu dans la même situation que la tienne, puisque je vais voyager seule pendant 6 mois en Asie du Sud-Est + Japon. Actuellement, je suis confrontée aux questions / réactions suivantes:Beaucoup de collègues / amis qui ne sont jamais partis en routard et encore moins seul(e)s avec leur sac s'inquiètent: ils me disent que je suis courageuse, que eux ne le feraient pas, certains me demandent si j'ai déjà tout réservé (!!), ils me demandent si ça ne me fait pas trop peur, etc... Bref, je pense qu'ils projettent leur propre peur sur moi. Sache que lorsque on envisage ce type de voyage, on a toujours ce genre de réactions. A mon avis, il ne faut pas trop prendre en compte ces remarques: discute plutôt avec des personnes qui te soutiennent et qui ont déjà tenté l'aventure / lis les messages sur le forum... De mon côté, au début, j'ai parlé de mon projet à des personnes de confiance (par ex, ma soeur qui a déjà fait un tour du monde de 4 mois), avant d'en parler aux personnes qui très probablement ne comprendraient pas.D'un point de vue matériel, le fait de voyager seule me pousse à mieux préparer le voyage que dans l'hypothèse d'un voyage à 2, et ce pour des questions de sécurité (ex de conseils: ne pas arriver tard le soir dans une nouvelle ville; faire attention lors des sorties à ce qu'on met dans ton verre; il faut juste garder en tête des règles de sécurité de base.).Enfin, il y a la peur du sentiment de solitude pendant le voyage: actuellement, je me pose d'ailleurs la question de savoir si je décolle juste avant le nouvel an, au risque de le passer seule à Bangkok...Je comprends que ce ne sont pas les difficultés pratiques qui t'inquiètent, mais plutôt le fait de te retrouver seule avec toi-même...
J'ai déjà voyagé seule pendant un mois au Chili il y a quelques années... Je crois que ça a été une de mes plus belles expériences: j'ai beaucoup appris sur moi, mes capacités à me débrouiller toute seule; bref, j'ai pris confiance en moi grâce à ce voyage! C'est ce qui me permet d'envisager sereinement mon prochain périple (entre temps j'ai pas mal voyagé sac au dos, mais toujours accompagnée).
C'est vrai que c'est un peu "angoissant" de se dire qu'on va se retrouver seule pendant si longtemps... En fait, si tu es ouverte et si tu parles un peu anglais, tu rencontreras plein de gens... Au Chili, j'ai rarement été toute seule. j'ai fait des bouts de chemin avec gens, passer des soirées très sympas avec des inconnus; ça m'a permis de faire de belles rencontres. J'étais toujours dans des auberges de jeunesse, ce qui me permettait de discuter avec plein de gens qui faisaient le même genre de voyage. Il suffit de les aborder pour leur demander un renseignement sur ce qu'ils ont visité, etc., et tu verras bien si ça accroche ou pas. Un autre moyen pour rencontrer des personnes a été de m'inscrire à des tours (de toute façon, pour aller voir les geysers à 4.000 m à 6h00 du matin c'était difficile de ne pas passer par une agence!).
Bref, ne t'inquiète pas trop: tu vas forcément rencontrer des gens!
En revanche, ça n'enlève pas le fait qu'il y a des moments où on aimerait bien partager ce qu'on vit avec quelqu'un (ami(e), frère/soeur, etc.): que ce soit les bons moments, ou les moins bons quand on a un coup de blues. Mais dis-toi que c'est un sentiment qui passe et que tu es ta meilleure compagne de voyage!
Mon conseil est donc: ose partir! Ce serait vraiment dommage de renoncer à ce projet à cause de ça!! Je pense que tu en tireras beaucoup plus de choses positives que négatives. C'est une vraie école de vie.
J'espère que mon message pourra t'aider...
Bon voyage en tout cas!
Bonjour.Je suis sur la région Asie du Sud Est de décembre 2010 à avril 2011.
Je suis photographe indépendant de 55 ans, et je me rends sur cette région pour me créer un fond photo, a titre personnel.Mon parcours précis est a définir.Trés certainement l'Indonésie en partie, la Malaisie, la Thailande, le Laos, le Cambodge et le Vietnam.Je n'ai rien de pré-établie a l'avance sur les dates et les lieux, et je suis ouvert a toute proposition pour rejoindre un(e) compagnon de voyage sur une période et un lieu ou il se trouvera.Compte tenu du parcours et de sa durée je suis a l'écoute de toute personne succéptible d'etre interessé meme partiellement sur l'ensemble de mon circuit.Selon votre intéret, meme partiel contactez moi car je suis a la recherche de thémes photographiques divers, et de découverte. Dan
Ps:Mon départ est prévu le 29/11 ou le 30/11 de PARIS POUR BANGKOK
Je serais sur Bangkok du 30/11 au 3/12.Je cherche un parcours commun en partie sur la periode 10/12 au 31/12 POUR CIRCULER SUR LA MALAISIE.
J'actualise les périodes au fur et mesure de certains impératifs et pour le mois de décembre ceci est définitif.
Merci beaucoup pour ton message qui me conforte dans mon idée de partir.
Le départ est fixé au 19 novembre 10, je prends mon billet dans les jours qui viennent!!! Il est vrai que mes proches se font du soucis pour moi mais cela est normal. De plus, ils ne sont jamais partis par ce mode de voyage routard donc ils se posent pas mal de questions...
De toute façon, je compte créer un blog pour leur raconter mes aventures et je reste bien entendu joignable avec mon téléphone portable!
J'ai vraiment envie de tenter l'aventure en solo, de toute façon je n'ai trouvé personne qui veuillent partir 3 mois et avec le budget...donc je ne vais pas me priver...
De toute façon, si je suis vraiment déprimée je peux toujours rentrer en France, l'Asie du sud-est est bien desservie au niveau transport aérien.
En plus, j'ai vraiment besoin de partir pour changer d'air et voir autre chose, je n'aime pas les fêtes de fin d'années, je viens de me séparer de mon copain...donc ce voyage me fera le plus grand bien.
Par ailleurs, je me suis rendue compte dans mes précédents voyages routard que beaucoup de gens voyagent seuls et se regroupent pour faire des bouts de chemins ensemble par exemple ou partagent des chambres dans les GH.
Voilà j'ai hâte de partir!!!!!! je te souhaite également un excellent voyage^^
Je rentre de 5 semaines de voyage solo (4 semaines en australie puis qqles jours a Hong Kong) et a vrai dire ce fut un pur plaisir !!
Effectivement beaucoup de personnes m'ont prise pour une folle a partir toute seule avec mon sac a dos mais au bout du monde mais ce fut une experience inoubliable !
Je pense que beaucoup effectivement angoisse a ta place parce qu'il ne le ferai pas eux-memes ou n'oseraient pas de lancer dans une telle aventure mais au final tu pourras te dire je le voulais et je l'ai fait.
Concernant la solitude, on croise tout le temps plein de monde, pour 1 jour ou plus, puis chacun poursuit son chemin. Du coup c'est beaucoup d'echange et d'experiences differentes.
Pour le contact avec les locaux, je trouve qu'il est presque mieux d'etre seule car cela facilite les echanges.
Bref je n'ai qu'une envie c'est de repartir et l'asie du sud-est me tente bien aussi :-)
Bon voyage
Chriss
je suis actuellement en Thailande pr au moins 3 mois, seul aussi, tout ce passe tres bien, mais effectivement a certains moment tu risques d'avoir qlqs angoisses et le sentiment d'etre seule au monde, surtout le soir, au cas ou si tu as le cafard et envie de parler n'hesites pas 🙂
Voila depuis mon dernier post, j'ai réservé mon billet d'avion pour le 19 novembre.
J'ai hâte de partir, les derniers jours en France sont angoissants pour moi. Je déteste les au revoirs, séparations etc...c'est ce qui me fait le plus peur. Je pense que une fois cette étape de passée ça ira mieux!!!!
Merci à tous pour vos messages de soutien. je ne manquerai pas de vous raconter mon ressenti sur le voyage solo dans quelques semaines...

Hi everyone,
I’m a 67-year-old woman who loves to travel, and for my third solo trip, I’ve decided to explore Indonesia.
I’ll be there from September 1st to October 5th, and I’m really struggling to plan my itinerary.
I’d love any advice you can share—I’ll read it all carefully.
So far, I’ve booked my first two nights with a local host in Jakarta, and then I’m heading to Borobudur. That’s all I’ve got planned for now.
Do you think I should book accommodations and transport tickets in advance? It seems really complicated, or could I just decide day by day based on how I feel?
Thanks in advance for your replies!
Hi everyone,
I’m planning a solo trip to Mongolia this summer, without an agency. However, I’d like to have a guide accompany me for certain parts of my journey.
From my research, I understand that most "activities," accommodations, and transportation are best arranged day by day, depending on opportunities and encounters. Without an agency, everything is organized on the spot.
I’d love to hear more opinions on this, especially regarding the Orkhon Valley.
Here’s the itinerary I’m planning:
* UB -> Mörön (flight) -> Khatgal (local buses)
A few days at Lake Khövsgöl
* Khatgal -> Mörön -> Jargalant -> Tariat (local buses)
A few days at the White Lakes
* White Lakes -> Tsetserleg -> Kharkhorin (4x4 with driver)
A few days in the Orkhon Valley
+ the Eight Lakes (horseback trekking with a guide)
* Return to UB
From what I’ve gathered, the first part should be fairly straightforward, but I have questions about the Orkhon Valley.
Here are my questions:
-> Tsetserleg to Kharkhorin route:
Have any of you made this trip by booking a driver on the spot when arriving in Tsetserleg? Was it easy to find an available driver? And did you find it easy/difficult/impossible to find other travelers to share the ride with? Ideally, I’d like to share this leg with fellow travelers.
-> The Eight Lakes: Could you share your experience with the Eight Lakes? Did you easily find a guide directly on site? Were you able to share this experience with other travelers?
Last question for women who’ve traveled solo in Mongolia:
-> How did you experience it? Do you have any specific tips or recommendations?
I’m considering a road trip (rental car) to explore the Canadian Rockies in September 2026, starting in Calgary and ending with about 10 days in Vancouver and the surrounding area. (Two weeks in the Rockies and a little under two weeks in Vancouver and nearby.)
I’d like to say that being a woman traveling alone doesn’t really bother me. That’s not the issue. Being a woman is just how it is, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon, but traveling solo is something I could fix by finding travel companions. However, I had a not-so-great experience in India with two girls who were total strangers at first and turned out to be quite annoying, so I’m a bit put off by the idea now.
My question is simple, assuming I do this trip alone: is it worth sticking *only* to driving? I have **zero** sense of direction—with a map, I’m hopeless. So, is it realistic to think, "With my GPS, I’ll just drive from Calgary to Vancouver and see what I see," since I don’t see myself hiking alone? I’m not easily scared, but I wouldn’t feel confident doing that solo. Unless all the sightseeing is done with a guide (but then, hello, the cost—my budget isn’t exactly overflowing).
What do you all think?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Take care and happy travels.
Cheers,
Régine
Hi,
After a week of sports south of Bergen, I’m not sure what to visit during the following week between Bergen and Oslo.
I haven’t planned to rent a car.
I’d love your suggestions. Thanks
Hi everyone, I’m really keen to visit Iran for three weeks in mid-March 2015.
What worries me a bit isn’t so much traveling alone—I’m used to it and know the Middle East well—but rather the current events (Islamic State) that could potentially become dangerous.
Flights are pretty cheap at the moment, and I’d like to book before prices go up.
Any advice from people who know the ground situation and Iranian current affairs better than I do would be much appreciated! :)
Hi there! I’m in the middle of planning my first solo trip (as a woman). Do you have any ideal destinations with activities like hiking, diving, sightseeing, and easy ways to meet locals—all on a small budget?
I’d love to hear from anyone who’s had this experience before! :)
Hi there,
Who could recommend a reliable agency for visiting several islands, including the parks around Komodo? I’m traveling solo as a woman.
Thanks for your great tips!
Hi everyone,
I’m often in transit in Tokyo and I stay at the hotel because Japanese people speak little English and the signs are almost always in Japanese!
Any ideas for getting from Narita to a nice park or an onsen? I wanted to try Hokkaido, but apart from renting a car, it’s all trains! Any suggestions for a car with a driver? Or is it too expensive? Small group tours in Hokkaido? I read about the Explorator group’s offer—way too expensive!!!
I’ve got a maximum of 8 days. I’d just like a nice Japanese break.
Thanks for any tips you can share!
my friend, with whom I traveled to Iran, Myanmar, and India, really wanted to take a one-month trip to Armenia and Georgia. So we booked our flights (June 21 to July 19), but disaster struck—she can’t travel anymore due to serious family reasons.
Now I’m heading off on this adventure alone. It’s not that I’ve never traveled solo before—I spent three months exploring Southeast Asia by myself last year—but I still have a few questions, and I’d really appreciate your input.
* I don’t think traveling alone in these countries is very risky—what do you think?
* Maybe I could hire a driver? What would that cost, since some places seem tricky to reach by public transport. Do you have any driver recommendations?
* I don’t want to rent a car—the driving seems too unpredictable, especially in Georgia.
* I’d love to do some nice hikes—are there any guides available?
Here’s my rough itinerary:
YEREVAN and surroundings
YEGHEGNADZOR for Noravank
GORIS and TATEV
LAKE SEVAN
DILIJAN
HAGHPAT
TBILISI and surroundings
The CAUCASUS toward Mestia
UPLISTSIKHE
VARDZIA
Return to Yerevan for my flight
Thanks to anyone who can share their experiences or answer my questions!
Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a few tips that really helped me better prepare my carry-on luggage. After a few trips (and some mistakes too!), I’ve finally found a way to organize myself that makes life a lot easier. Maybe this can help other travelers here.
1. Choose a practical and sturdy bag
A good bag is the foundation. I’ve noticed that a model with a solid structure, sturdy wheels, and a well-thought-out interior really changes the experience. Hard-shell suitcases hold up better, especially when you’re hopping between flights. Personally, I use a Lambert suitcase because the interior is super well-divided, but the important thing is to find a model that works for you.
2. Rolling your clothes really works
It’s simple, but it saves so much space. Plus, it wrinkles less. I do this now for almost everything, especially lightweight clothes.
3. Keep everything in a small kit
100 ml liquids, toothbrush, cream, mini first-aid kit… Having all of that in one clear toiletry bag makes going through security much easier. It saves you from having to take everything out and put it back in a rush.
4. A pouch for essentials
Passport, headphones, charger, phone… I keep all of that in the same pouch. It saves so much stress when you need to find something quickly, especially on the plane.
5. Traveling lighter makes all the difference
Since I started choosing versatile clothes that mix and match well, I travel with a lot less. Less weight, fewer decisions to make, fewer things to lug around. It honestly makes traveling so much more enjoyable.
From the conversations I’ve had with other travelers (and several customers too), I’ve realized you can really simplify your trip just by organizing a little better and choosing good accessories.
If you have other tips or methods that work for you, I’d love to read them. We always learn from others on this forum.
Looking forward to exchanging with you all!
Hi,
Has anyone recently taken the boat to Casamance from Dakar and could share their experience?
From France, is it possible to book online, or do you need to go through an agency? How far in advance?
Boarding/disembarking: how does it work? Do we have to check in our luggage and then pick it up on arrival?
What’s the vibe like on the boat in the seating area?
Has anyone ever stopped over in Carabane? Accommodation options there?
Thanks so much if you have any recent info!
Exploring India by road is all about having a good driver. I highly recommend the one I’ve traveled with for 5 "safe" trips—Rajasthan 3 times over 16 years, Gujarat, Himachal Pradesh, and Punjab. He’s been driving tourists for 25 years now and is more than just a driver. He knows how to talk about his country, the cities you visit, and suggests alternative routes.
He’s well-connected with real local guides who don’t just ramble (as he puts it himself) or drag you into shops claiming to be run by their "so-called family." Depending on your preferences, he can suggest well-tested itineraries and recommend typical hotels like Havelis.
For dining, he oversees meal prep based on your spice-level preferences. He’s Sikh and deeply respectful of his passengers.
He speaks English better than French, but one of his daughters is studying French at university.
Hi,
We’d like to spend about twenty days in Albania next July. We’re two women traveling together and we’re thinking of renting a small car. Does that sound reasonable, or should we avoid it?
Thanks for your advice.
Hi there,
I’m spending a week in Morocco (Rabat - Meknes - Fes).
I’ll be traveling solo—is it safe for a woman over 60?
For transportation, I’m planning to take the train. I was thinking of buying my ticket last minute, but it’s around the end-of-year period…?
I’ll be in Meknes on December 31st—any suggestions on how they celebrate New Year’s Eve there?
Is anyone visiting these destinations? Maybe we could meet up…?
Thanks in advance.
Hi there,
After hearing so much about Djerba, especially the GO clubs, is it risky for a young, pretty newly-retired woman to visit the island alone?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Does anyone know how late the buses run from Cusco Airport to the city center? I land at 9:30 PM, plus time to clear customs, pick up my luggage, and exchange some money—figure an extra 30 to 45 minutes. Though, come to think of it, I still have 5 sols from last time—maybe that’ll be enough for the bus?
Thanks.
Brigitte
Planned arrival on Sunday evening, November 16, 2025, in San José. Staying 3 nights, then taking a bus to Tortuguero for 2 nights. Looking for a shared shuttle to La Fortuna for 2 nights, then a van-boat-van combo to Santa Elena for 2 or 3 nights. Heading to Quepos for 4 nights for day trips using local buses—Jaco, San Antonio, Uvita. After that, a full-day bus ride to Cahuita. I’m booking hotels as I go, which gives me the flexibility to stay longer in places I like. I’m looking for accommodations in city centers near restaurants and not too far from the bus station. Budget: 50 € for a room with a private bathroom (if you’ve got any great tips!). For my finale, I’ll cross the land border to Panama City for 4 days. Thanks for your suggestions! 😉
As I mentioned before, I’m heading to Istanbul next summer, and I’ve heard there have been quite a few attacks by Kurds in Turkey recently, which is making me hesitate about my trip.
What do you all think? :( I’m wondering if it’s really a good idea to go...
Hi everyone,
I’m 66 and just discovered solo travel in Uzbekistan—I loved it! So I’ve decided to explore Africa, starting with Senegal. I’m just beginning my research, but if anyone can give me advice on which month to go, what to see, and whether this destination is safe—or maybe suggest another African country—I’d really appreciate your tips!
Hi there!
We’re leaving in early November for a month.

Thanks
Hi there,
We’d like to stay in Switzerland for five days.
There are two of us (women).
We don’t know this country at all.
What cities or affordable spots would you recommend for visiting?
Cheap accommodation.
Looking for community-based options.
And being close to public transport.
Thanks for your tips and experiences!
Best regards.
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone has taken a Rede Expressos bus from Lisbon Airport to Lagos, and if so, where exactly at the airport you need to board it? I’m worried I’ll get lost and miss my bus...
Hi again,
I’m adding more details to my info request. Here are two proposed itineraries. We’re hesitating:
Colombo - Unawatuna 2 days - Sinharaja 1 day - Bandarawela 2 days - Kandy 3 days - Dambulla 2 days - Wilpattu Park 1 day - Kalpitiya 3 days - Negombo 1 day
What should we change or add a day for to include Jaffna?
Or:
Negombo 1 day - Anuradhapura 2 days - Jaffna 2 days - Sigiriya 2 days - Dambulla 1 day - Kandy 2 days - Ella 1 day - Galle 3 days
For your advice.
Is it better to finish in Galle or Kalpitiya?
Thanks in advance!

This is a warning message! I’d like to address it especially to young women traveling alone for the first time in India. Other travelers may react to my post based on their own experiences, but I think what I’m about to say shouldn’t be taken lightly—unless that’s what you’re looking for!
Last July, I traveled to Northern India. I stopped in Khajuraho to see the famous tantric temples. I stayed one night, and that was more than enough. Khajuraho is very touristy, but you should know that 80% of young Indian men there are "gigolos." Locals call these young men (aged 18 to 30) "playboys" or "Lapka" (which means "capture the woman" in Hindi)!!!
They approach tourists with kindness and politeness, offering tea or a motorcycle ride (which they’ve often gotten from generous Western female tourists) to waterfalls a few kilometers from Khajuraho or other tourist sites. After befriending you, they charm you—be careful, these are professionals who are very skilled at this; it’s all they do, and they do it well. They’ll offer you food, drinks, and even temple entry to confuse you. They’ll suggest spending the evening or even the night with them. **Refuse (unless you’re into local flings and that’s why you came)!!!!**
At first, you’ll be seduced by their generosity, let your guard down, and then they’ll make you believe in *true love*. They won’t leave you alone and will keep in touch via email or phone if you give them your details. The lines they use to soften you up and scam you include: *"I’m the only one taking care of my family, my brother is sick, I don’t know what to do..."* All of this is to manipulate you into offering them money. They’ll never ask for it outright (to avoid being exposed) but will wait for you to suggest it.
If you receive emails from them, they’ll never be signed, and their name won’t appear in the email address (to avoid leaving traces). They use fake names to avoid being reported. If you believe their sob stories and offer help, they’ll give you a bank account number to send money via Western Union. These young men make a living from this—selling their bodies and scamming people! They’re very skilled, charming, manipulative, and *big-time cheaters*!
(Especially one young man who goes by the alias *Tony*—apparently the most skilled. He lives in a hotel near the lake, *Krishna Cottage*, and is in regular contact via Skype with Western women he’s tricked into believing he loves them while shamelessly scamming them. He even opened an internet café on the roof of the hotel with money he stole from women who fell for his charm.)
So, young romantic women craving love, sensitive singles, or anyone emotionally vulnerable—**don’t let yourself be scammed!!!** This behavior is becoming more common in India and is still relatively unknown. Male prostitution is on the rise, and cases of romantic scams and financial fraud by gigolos are increasing.
hi everyone! I’d like to visit Montreal and the surrounding areas in August, and I’ve got 3 weeks of vacation. I’m traveling alone and will be visiting my daughter, who recently moved there. She’ll be working and only available in the evenings! So I’m torn between spending a week in Montreal, then taking a flight to Cuba, and returning to France from Havana—or staying in Montreal and exploring the nearby areas alone.
For my first idea—going to Cuba—is it feasible in terms of administrative formalities and legality? And for my second idea, is it possible to take buses? If so, is it too expensive? And are there many places served by them?
From FES, I’d like to spend a few days in:
MEKNES
CHEFCHAOUEN
TETOUAN
and then return to FES.
I’m planning this trip in November.
Thanks for your tips!
I just got back from an unforgettable road trip in Madagascar where I drove down the legendary RN7. It connects Tana (the capital) to Tulear.
Since we were traveling as a group of girls, we decided to go with a guide. I’d never done an “organized” trip before, but I have to say we loved this first tailor-made travel experience.
From the highlands of the Red Island
down to the west coast, by the Mozambique Channel.
Vast landscapes as far as the eye can see
Human encounters
Discovering ancestral artisanal know-how
Sunsets over the ochre mountains
Intense, precious moments with my friends
We loved the mountains, visits to artisans, and the parties too ;-)
We used local guides to show us specific spots (like Isalo National Park, where we were able to bivouac)
Hi there,
My friend and I are traveling together between October and November 2025—no exact dates yet.
We’d love to step away from the typical travel agency packages and are hoping to rent a car locally and stay with locals, living with them rather than in a vacation rental.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks in advance for your advice and tips!
Warm regards to all
