Travel is arguably one of the most enriching experiences a person can undertake. It certainly goes some way to explaining the growth in gap years and career breaks, when people go off to far-flung and exotic destinations in search of adventure. But deciding where to go can sometimes present something of a challenge. With almost any option possible and (in the case of a solo traveler) nobody else to have to pander to, in some respects choosing your destination can be more of a challenge than the actual journey itself.
So with that in mind, here are some of our suggestions for the best places a single man can visit. Some do, naturally, have lots of beautiful women, but they are merely an addition to some other attractive quality that destination possesses. Some are bustling metropolises; others have a less ostentatious appeal. Some are incredible parties. But all of them will guarantee a great experience, with or without a companion. And if you do go solo, then all of them will afford you a great chance of finding someone as interesting as the cities they inhabit.
