The safest, most connected city in Southeast Asia — a green, efficient city-state with hawker centres that punch above their Michelin-starred weight and a digital nomad scene that means business.
Tokyo
Japan
The world's greatest megacity — a dazzling, hyper-efficient collision of neon districts, serene shrines, Michelin-dense dining and pin-drop-quiet backstreets. Tokyo is endlessly safe, navigable and surprising, and arguably the single best big city on earth for solo travellers.
Kyoto
Japan
Japan's ancient capital rewards the solo traveler like nowhere else. Walk from temple to temple in complete comfortable silence — a city that not only accepts solo travel, it seems designed for it.
Osaka
