Some travel hacks for solo female travelers, shared by Neha are stated below:

1. Track your whereabouts: Always share details of your travel plan, including places you intend to see and hotels where you are staying, with your close family or friends. If required, also share details of cab driver you would be traveling with, at hotel reception before you leave for your day. It always helps to be safe!

2. Protect your travel documents, cash and cards: Be vigilant about keeping your travel documents like passport, tickets and credit cards SAFE! You can keep these items in a locker facility at accommodation you stay. Don’t carry too much cash when you go out and rather carry only amount which you intend to spend in a day – which covers transport and food expenses.

3. Be confident: Try and look confident even while traveling to a completely new territory, city or country. And, as they say, when in Rome do as the Romans! So, basically eat, drink and participate in activities just like the locals of town!

4. Plan your day: Always plan your day in advance and be aware of touristy sights where you can easily travel. Also, be cautious of avoiding deserted alleys and streets which are not advisable to visit even by locals.

5. Buy a travel insurance: This is highly underrated by many travelers. Buying a travel insurance will provide you coverage for travel delays, lost baggage or even unforeseen medical emergency. This is worth a small investment and provides assurance against unavoidable hiccups while traveling to an unknown destination.

6. Trust your gut instincts: Well, let’s say if you strongly feel that something is off then it probably it is! So, always trust your gut instincts and don’t be afraid to say NO to complete strangers with whom you might not feel comfortable interacting with.
