For many travelers, the world is a magnificent place full of wonder at every turn. With every adventure to international cities, we learn something new about ourselves, the human condition, and how we see ourselves through the lens of other cultures. However, for all of the great international cities we experience, there are also many very dangerous destinations that may not welcome foreign travelers.

The dangers go beyond petty taxi cab scams and pickpocket theft. In some international cities, armed gangs are much more brazen in their attacks, specifically targeting western travelers. As a result, travelers may be assaulted, attacked, and injured in the name of terrorism, robbery, or other motives.

Some locations are more dangerous than others – especially for travelers who like to go alone. Those who are planning a solo trip to these five cities should consider their plans carefully, or purchase a strong travel insurance policy.

A budding commerce center of India, New Delhi is an international city that attracts business travelers from around the world. However, New Delhi is discovering not only their identity in the global community, but also the dangers that come with expansive growth. One of those dangers comes in the threat of sexual assault – especially to women.

Both the British Foreign Ministry and the U.S. Department of State warn that sexual assaults of female visitors remains a concern for solo travelers. The alleged assaults have not been isolated to American travelers: travelers from Denmark, Germany, and Japan claim they have been sexually harassed or assaulted while traveling in New Delhi. Women with solo travel plans to New Delhi are encouraged to create a safety plan prior to their travels, and are strongly encouraged to travel in groups.
