A growing number of consumers are opting to go on trips and adventures by themselves, so the 'Solocal' community has been created as a resource for solo female travelers to connect with one another.
The platform works by allowing users to connect with one another before or during their trip to meet up to partake in adventurous day trips together, have coffee or even meet up for dinner. This ensures that travelers don't feel like they are completely alone during their trip by providing them with the option to meet up with other solo travelers on their own terms.
The 'Solocal' platform comes as a more niche travel network that acknowledges the growing number of female consumers who are looking to travel solo.
