Middle East Travel Tips For Women

August 30th, 2011

Traveling to the Middle East seems like an idea you’ve come up with after drinking bad coffee. This is especially true if you’re a woman. Women in the Middle East don’t walk around streets alone. They’re always with their families or groups of women. In some parts of the region, gender segregation is also implemented. An example of this is that women don’t sit beside men in public transportation. One Middle East travel tip I can give you is to respect the region’s culture. Avoid talking to men especially in the streets and follow rules on gender segregation. Be very reserved and don’t do typical western gestures like smiling or gazing at men.
