India has always been lauded for being one of the most unsafe destinations for women to travel to. As a solo traveler myself, I completely understand why it must be utterly terrifying to pack your bags without any thoughts and take off to India. Understandably, let me tell you there are few places in India that are known for Solo Female Travel destinations in India. Here are five places according to me that make it to the Top Ten Places To Travel Alone to in India.
(Caution: you might just book a flight for your solo travel after reading this!)
Udaipur, Rajasthan
If you love culture and architecture, you will love Udaipur. Actually, in that case, you will love Jaipur, Pushkar, Jaisalmer. The folk music, culture, and mind-blowing cuisines will drive you crazy! There is so much to seep in as a woman solo traveler, you will not want to come back. The friendly nature of people will make you want to stay longer and make you feel super safe. The reason these places in India are nearly as safe, is because it is a destination known for honeymooners and couples. Given the glorious past, cobbled streets, starry peaceful nights, romantic dinners, stunning sunsets and beautiful boat rides across Lake Pichola. This definitely rounds up as one of my top Solo Female Travel destinations in India to travel to! It may get annoying seeing all couples, but the best place to live for backpackers is Bunkyard hostel . I highly recommend this place for various reasons ( Also read: Unique themed hostels in India for backpackers) . Bunkyard hostel is affordable, has great management and you will be surprised at the number of women solo travellers that visit Udaipur.

Hampi, Karnataka
If you want something different and away from the city life, Hampi is the place to be. It is one of the best places to go to in India if you are solo travelling because it is culturally rich, abundant with hospitable and friendly people. Did you know it is also an UNESCO World heritage site? If you are a backpacker, you are going to love this place. Many solo travellers visit Hampi from all over the world, you are bound to encounter people from different walks of life.
