There are many Ghanaians who wish to travel outside for sightseeing or on vacations. Even though this is not a typical attribute of Ghanaians, it is a dream which usually lingers in the mind of many. The problem is usually with the finances for such a dream and sometimes ways of acquiring a visa to other countries.
Many also lack the information on the various countries and are as a result not aware of some cheap/reduced packages. It takes less finances and effort to travel to some countries than you could ever think of. Aside from this, there are several countries with proper tourist sites to shake off that stress.
Just make up your mind and work towards it. You might just be cruising on the beach or mountain of another country without knowing it. Besides, there’s the change of environment and the feeling of knowing that you’ve travelled outside before.
Below are eight of the best destination countries based on criteria like safety, culture, ease of transportation, and lodging for solo travellers in 2018.
So in case you decide to take the bull by the horns and travel outside, just check out these places. Thank me later.

The cheapest of all countries to visit. Living in a comfortable room, having three meals a day and a few beers for only $25 per day! Accommodation and commodities are cheap everywhere, especially when you move further to the North.
