Istanbul has been the only place in the world I felt unsafe and vulnerable as a solo traveler. I’d never go back. I was followed and harassed in the street repeatedly. Couldn’t walk 10 meters after getting rid of one before the next would start to harass me.
Posted: September 30, 2023Last year, I lived in Istanbul for a few months. Alone. On the Asian side. I walked everywhere alone. On weekends, I explored the whole of Istanbul. Alone. Of course, there were instances of men approaching, but I simply didn't react to them. Istanbul is a very beautiful city and, in my opinion, safe.
Posted: September 29, 2023I walked alone with my teenage daughter in Istanbul and didn't feel anything disturbing, except for a few standard invitations to enter a restaurant or shop. It's a very cosmopolitan and touristy city, and in my opinion, there's nothing to be afraid of. However, I was only in the touristy part and I don't know what the other neighborhoods are like.
Posted: September 29, 2023I'm considering a solo trip to Istanbul. I've always desperately wanted to go and it isn't too expensive but none of my friends are interested. However, I've been advised by multiple people not to go to Turkey on my own. I was under the impression that (so long as I dressed ok etc) Turkey was very safe for solo female travelers. Any advice?
