This study aims to investigate the challenges faced by solo-female travelers in Iranian societies and proposes measures to improve their experiences. To achieve this objective, a mixed-methods research design was employed in three phases. First, two-phased exploratory surveys were conducted to identify seven key constraints that affect the behavioral intentions of solo-female tourists, namely sociocultural, interpersonal, intrapersonal, religious, physical safety, practical, and structural factors. Furthermore, cross-impact-balanced analysis was employed to generate four consistent scenarios for the development of solo female tourism in Iran. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for policymakers and tourism industry stakeholders to enhance the experiences of solo-female travelers in Iran. The study's plausible scenario presents a number of measures that hold promise for mitigating constraints and improving the experiences of solo female travelers. These measures include online-community-building, mutual-adaptation, self-psychological empowerment, the establishment of female free zones, the overcoming of travel fears, technological-empowerment, and feminist-participatory-action.

本研究旨在调查伊朗社会中单身女性旅行者面临的挑战，并提出改善她们体验的措施。为了实现这一目标，分三个阶段采用了混合方法研究设计。首先，进行两阶段的探索性调查，找出影响单身女性游客行为意图的七个关键制约因素，即社会文化因素、人际因素、内心因素、宗教因素、人身安全因素、实用因素和结构因素。此外，采用交叉影响平衡分析来生成伊朗单身女性旅游业发展的四种一致情景。这项研究的结果为政策制定者和旅游业利益相关者提供了宝贵的见解，以增强伊朗单身女性旅行者的体验。该研究的合理设想提出了一系列措施，有望减轻单身女性旅行者的限制并改善其体验。这些措施包括在线社区建设、相互适应、自我心理赋权、建立女性自由区、克服旅行恐惧、技术赋权和女权主义参与行动。
