50 Places Women Should Never Travel Alone

Afghanistan
Although things are on the rise in Afghanistan—and there have been a few accounts of positive experiences for women traveling solo—these accounts are few and far between. In fact, unofficial travel to Afghanistan has recently been banned by the U.S. Department of State. This is due to an upsurge of kidnappings, hostage takings, and bombings.
These dangers don’t even take into account the history of Afghani attitudes towards women. Afghanistan needs a few more years to recover from Taliban influence and the strict laws against the rights of women before ladies start taking solo trips.
