By analysing Google search data from the last two years, the company has determined the places that are seeing the biggest uplift in solo travel online searches.
Hanoi saw a 946% rise in year-on-year solo travel searches, followed by Bangkok and China's Taipei. Ho Chi Minh City ranked sixth with a search increase of 480%.
According to the Explore Worldwide, when in Hanoi – an ancient and vibrant city, solo travellers can dive into the colourful busy streets of the Old Quarter, rubbing shoulders with the locals in a maze of narrow streets filled with shoppers, traders, cafes and restaurants.
Explore Worldwide called Ho Chi Minh City as "the busiest city in Vietnam", where there is an interesting blend of tradition and modernity. Recommended places in the city include the Cu Chi tunnels, taking a boat ride and dining on the rooftop of a skyscraper with panoramic views of the city in just one day.
Explore Worldwide has more than 40 years of experience organising adventure tours to more than 100 countries.
