8 Best Destinations for Female Solo Travelers in Your 60s (5 of 5)

8. Ireland

Ireland is the kind of place where you might spend a week or two there but will leave with lifelong friends. The locals at the pubs will approach you and chat as if they know you. This creates a warm experience that makes solo traveling feel less isolating. Beyond Dublin, there is a green countryside worth exploring, and no trip is complete without stops in Galway and Cork. It can be difficult to reach the idyllic Irish villages by public bus, so renting a car or arranging for an organized tour are the best ways to get around.
