3 Reasons to Try Traveling Alone

Traveling is often thought of as a group activity. Traveling with friends and family can be incredibly rewarding so you may think that traveling alone would somehow be a less enriching experience. However, there are countless benefits to taking a major trip by yourself at least once in your life. Consider these three reasons from your friends at Empire Rent A Car, and then get out there and start exploring solo!

1. Your Destination Will Mean More

When you're on vacation with friends or family, you focus on the people more than the destination – which is great! However, if you want to truly experience a specific destination, go there alone! The lack of people to interact with will force you to engage much more directly with your surroundings. You'll form much more vivid memories about your destination from a solo trip than a group trip.

2. You Can Be Spontaneous

When traveling in a group, changing plans can be super complicated. You have multiple personal, financial, and comfort level concerns to consider, so things can get messy quick. However, when you're on vacation alone, you can simply make a decision and move on. If you suddenly don't feel like going out to eat – don't! It can be very freeing to make these decisions with only yourself in mind.

3. You Will Build Confidence

Confidence comes from really knowing yourself and your own strength. When you travel alone, not only do you have plenty of time inside your own head, but you also have to figure things out by yourself. You will learn just how capable you are when you get yourself out of a jam or figure out where you are without anyone's help. As you make every decision about your trip, your day, and your meals, your confidence in your ability to make good decisions will also grow.

There are countless reason to try traveling alone, but you will need a way to get there. Contact Empire Rent A Car in New York at (800) 750-8782 or make your reservation online. We have a large selection of cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans. Our team would love to help you find the rental that is right for you.
