Why do tourists not want to travel alone?
Travel Daily Media published the results of a study by Klook, dedicated to traveling alone.
Survey participants – 20,000 tourists from 16 countries. It turned out that most travelers would like to go on a trip on their own (76% of respondents).
According to experts, the interest in traveling alone is observed all over the world. The leaders in this indicator are travelers from Asian countries.
Between 69% and 93% of Asian tourists travel without a companion. In Western countries, this number ranges from 60 to 69%. Respondents say they want to fully and around the clock enjoy their personal time and feel independent.
The main obstacle to solo tourism is the fear of loneliness and helplessness. By the way, this is typical for all ages.
48% reported that their biggest concern was safety, and 30% experienced stress from self-planning and booking a route.
