How a place is chosen for solo travellers
- It is one of the best months, or a good one, to go.
- It is a city or a historic town.
- Days average 34°C or less, and it rains on no more than 12 days.
- The UK Foreign Office does not advise against travel to the whole country.
- Cheaper places come first, by the World Bank's price level.
A rule over the figures on each place's own page, not an opinion: the same month always gives the same answer.
