Why Choose Solo Travel in the United States?

Embarking on a solo journey means immersive experiences where you dictate the pace, the destinations, and the activities. The United States, with its well-paved roads and reliable public transportation, makes planning these excursions seamless. For women, solo travel for women to United States is both empowering and increasingly secure, with communities and services gradually adapting to the needs of individual travellers.

Diverse Landscapes and Iconic Cities

Whether your spirit yearns for towering skyscrapers or majestic mountains, the United States has an enchanting array of options. Start your adventure in New York City—a vibrant metropolis bustling with art, culture, and iconic landmarks. Discover hidden cafés in Brooklyn, explore the serene paths of Central Park, or catch a breathtaking performance on Broadway.

For those inclined towards natural wonders, solo travel to the United States wouldn’t be complete without the national parks. Witness the grandiose vistas of the Grand Canyon, the geothermal marvels of Yellowstone, or the ethereal beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains. Each park offers unique trails and landscapes, perfect for some reflective me-time.

Cultural Encounters

One of the highlights of travelling solo is the ability to engage intimately with local cultures. Dive into New Orleans' rich tapestry of music, food, and history. Join a jazz parade, savour the spicy delight of gumbo, or lose yourself in an art gallery in the historic French Quarter.

Heading to California, immerse yourself in the vibrant street scenes of Los Angeles and San Francisco. Experience the diversity of communities, from the Latino culture in East LA to the tech-savvy vibes of Silicon Valley. Don’t miss the chance to visit museums, local markets, and artisan cafés—all havens for solo exploration.

The Freedom to Explore

United States vacations for the solo traveller mean indulging in spontaneous adventures. With reliable Wi-Fi almost everywhere, you can easily plan your next step while sipping a latte in a quaint Seattle bookstore. Each state's unique charm invites curiosity and flexibility in your travel plans.

Practical Tips for Solo Travellers

  • Stay Connected: Download essential apps such as maps, translation tools, and local emergency contact information to ensure a smooth journey.
  • Luggage Control: Pack light! A manageable backpack makes it easy to hop on public transport or fit your belongings snugly in the overhead compartment of a bus or train.
  • Accommodation Choices: Opt for well-reviewed hostels or boutique hotels. Many offer social events or common areas where making new friends is easy and comfortable.
  • Local Etiquette: Research cultural norms and local practices beforehand to blend in confidently and respectfully in different settings.

Solo travel for women to the United States is not just a journey; it’s a path to self-discovery enriched by diverse landscapes, cultures, and communities. Reflect on your adventures as you traverse this vast nation, knowing that each step taken on your own opens up new horizons and deeper insights into the world around you. Pack your bags, follow your instincts, and let the wonders of the United States unveil themselves to you in their full splendour.

I just returned from escorting 34 people to China with four stops. We had hotels, local guides and extensive daily sightseeing. We had flights and we had high speed rail. There were numerous components that could have gone wrong but did not. I would like to highly recommend local guide Yoyo in Shanghai as well as Kevin in Xian. Two of the best guides I have ever had anywhere in the world. Suzette Castro and her team at the Goway Group Department did an excellent job helping me put this together. I was demanding, they were totally cooperative. It went well. I will be back. Amy Fink, CTC at Blue Ribbon Travel ArrangementsAmy in San Bruno, CA

I was looking at a month holiday in New Zealand and Australia and Natasa Jaric who is located in the Toronto area helped to make it happened by combining 2 already designed holidays in Oceania. From the beginning to the end, Natasa was "hands on" by explaining and providing everything I needed for our trip. During our trip, there were few bumps on the road that had nothing to do with Goway Travel as it was the airline company that cancelled our scheduled flight and created chaos. And the other problems (they were light) was because of the way hotels described their rooms. It should definitely be better worded! Db to me means double bed ... what does it mean to you? ;-) Anyhow, we ended up having two beds but with some arguments at one hotel only. The others accommodated us at no extra cost. I should also add that NZ and Aus. know how to treat tourists. I was particularly impressed with the transfers services offered by different companies both in NZ and Aus. Wow! No waiting at the airports, hotels or terminals. They were there ready to pick us up and drive us where ever we needed to be! Well done!!! It's the kind of service that I will have a hard time not to use again as it comes with a $ sign but definitely worth spending it! :-). I received a very good response from the "Help office" when the flight was cancelled and other inquiries I had made. Very good service once again. I live quite a few experiences during that month and all thanks need to go to Natasa and her team. So Natasa: Thank you very very much for a very well organized travel! Carole Ouellet

This was my first time planning a tour wth Goway Travel. I am truly delighted with the professionalism and personal relationship I had with the Goway Travel consultant Christine. She gave attention to every details I requested to curate my tour to Hong Kong and Bali. She addressed all my needs, answered thoroughly my questions and concerns. She is a touch of class in every respect. I will definitely recommend Goway Travel group. Excellent Hotels. Perfect guides in both countries. LE Asia Tour

Ingrid did a phenomenal job creating a 22 day trip beginning in with 3 days in Turkey, that included a Turkish Bath and a private tour of the mosques, we then took a 10 day cruise through the Mediterranean, Greece, Croatia, plus a couple of other stops. We got off the cruise in Ravenna Italy our transportation was spot on picking us up (I would have to stay all of our transportation was impressive, always there, on time, very helpful) we traveled from Ravenna to Venice where we stayed for two nights. Venice is the only place we had a hiccup, we weren't sure if someone was meeting us at our Hotel to take us to the water taxi to get to the train station, we figured it out, made the train and all was good. Traveled to Florence, had the best time there with one of our most favorite excusions, stayed in Florence for two nights and then completed our trip with three nights in Rome. Rome is BUSY, I was not prepared for that but should of expected it. This is our second big trip planning through Goway Travel, I can not recommend enough, they are so detailed and take care of everything you need and everything you didn't know you needed.
