Suitable destinations for traveling alone and enjoying "Me-time"

November 11th is known as Single's Day - celebrating freedom and independence. On this day, people can enjoy time for themselves, meet friends or simply reward themselves with something. Over time, Single's Day has become a globally accepted event with the message of loving yourself and mastering life in all forms. In that spirit, the trend of traveling alone is increasingly popular and is seen as a way to recharge and reconnect with yourself.

According to Booking.com's Travel Trends 2025 report, 67% of Vietnamese travelers plan to travel alone in 2025 for relaxation. Booking.com, one of the leading online travel platforms, will suggest ideal destinations for all different solo travel styles - where each journey opens up absolute freedom to connect with the world in each person's own way. Travelers can easily search, book, manage their accommodation and buy flight tickets, as well as reserve tickets for attractions right on Booking.com.

Phu Quoc, Vietnam

By 2025, a Booking.com survey found that 62% of Vietnamese travelers plan to travel domestically alone, 50% want to immerse themselves in nature, while 33% want to explore a small town, and Phu Quoc is the perfect destination that meets all three of these factors. Vietnam's pearl island attracts domestic and foreign tourists with its pristine nature, beautiful white sand beaches and pleasant climate all year round. It has the peaceful pace of a small town, but is also bustling enough for those who love to explore. Visitors can kayak on the Cua Can River, visit a honeybee farm, fish for squid at night and watch the sunset, or simply relax on the white sand beach and enjoy the fresh air. For a more complete experience, try an island-hopping tour combined with snorkeling - visit three islands in the An Thoi archipelago, swim in the clear blue water and enjoy a delicious lunch served right on the boat. A trip to Phu Quoc at the end of the year is a great way to complete your bucket list, recharge your batteries and get ready for a prosperous new year.

Bangkok, Thailand

With 42% of Vietnamese tourists planning to take an upcoming "solo trip" abroad, Bangkok will be the perfect stopover for those who are traveling abroad for the first time. No visa required (for Vietnamese tourists only), just over an hour flight from Vietnam, and possessing many cultural similarities, the capital of the land of golden temples offers a convenient journey and diverse experiences for all travel enthusiasts. Although it is a large and vibrant metropolis, Bangkok is still a destination that tourists can easily explore on their own thanks to the BTS and MRT train systems covering the city. Thanks to that, passengers can quickly move between many attractions while still saving costs. If you want a change of pace, try immersing yourself in the nightlife at RCA, Havana Social or relax on the Chao Phraya cruise and enjoy the romantic space. Besides its modern charm, Bangkok also attracts tourists with unique traditional cultural activities such as visiting Wat Khaek fresh market, exploring local herbs and spices, then joining a cooking class and making typical Thai dishes such as Tom Yum, Pad Thai or mango sticky rice.

Tokyo, Japan

With its vibrant pace of life and many exciting entertainment activities, big cities always have a special attraction for solo travelers. In fact, up to 45% of Vietnamese tourists said they want to visit a big city during their upcoming vacation. And Tokyo, Asia's leading cultural and entertainment center, is one of the perfect choices. Here, you can admire the panoramic view of the city from Tokyo Tower, immerse yourself in the youthful atmosphere of Harajuku, see cherry blossoms on a bus tour around the city, or experience Japan's unique traditional samurai culture. Every experience you have in Tokyo brings a new feeling, promising to bring an inspiring journey with many unforgettable memories.
