It is very safe during the day, but sometimes at night if its a lonely road some cars stop… they dont come out but I feel threatened a little bit. Once I got my wallet stolen. Apart from that it is a good place
Posted: April 16, 2025Yerevan has generally been safe for me in the 25 years of my life here. Petty crime is low but I’d still advise to keep a watch on your items. I have, however, been groped without my consent in public several times. The risk of sexual harassment is still low compared to many other places in the world, but you’re still gonna get started at and receive unwanted attention especially if you’re even slightly alt. That’s the main thing making me uncomfortable here, but I would say as a tourist you’ll be fine!
Posted: April 13, 2025Yerevan is very safe. You can walk alone at night in the streets and no one will disturb you. Just in case do it in the central streets. Far from the center is also safe, but some streets can be dark, with no lightning, so better to concentrate on the center.
Posted: April 9, 2025I live and work in Yerevan, alone, people here are simple and friendly, even at night you can walk around freely, I have not had a single unpleasant situation. My friends go hiking in the mountains without any problems, strangers will always help.

Yerevan is quite a safe city, however women walking alone after 11 pm can receive "invitations" from men to join them in their car. Make sure to dress in a conservative way if you have to walk alonr at night. And well, be mindful of your bag in public turisty places, and taxi scams.

Yerevan is pretty safe for women. The main issue will obviously be walking in dark places alone at night but meeting a creep is not as common as you might think. You also might receive side eyes for your outfit in Yerevan suburbs. In the center usually nobody cares. Overall I would rate the safety 9/10.
Posted: February 15, 2025Yerevan is a quite safe place. Public transport is full usually but still quite safe - the same about metro stations! As a female traveller you dont feel any pressure or assaulting. You can stay outside till quite late hours at night!
Posted: February 6, 2025For me it is very safe. I wouldn't recommend leaving personal belongings somewhere without watch but other than that there aren't many pickpocketers around. There ara some cases of sexual assaults. Usually instead if applying to police people tend to apply to their families and friends
Posted: January 24, 2025Armenia is one of the safest countries in the world and mostly there is no crime, women can walk alone during night and be in safe, there are very few people who would try to harm someone, but police is fast and will fix that situation.

Yerevan is a very safe city. I can walk around the city at 4am and nothing will happen to me. I usually spend my friday night out with my friends and i take a cab home late at night, 3-4 am and i feel completely safe to do that.

A 100% perfect trip to the Yerevan, Armenia 🇦🇲. It was group trip, we met 2 weeks before it on the group in telegram for students. We decided to go to the Yerevan because we are W&T participants and visa is our necessity. So we get our visas and spend great time together 🌹🍷

before going there, i read some posts about travel experience in Yerevan on Chinese social media. and they say that eating there can be even more expensive than in tbilisi. they recommend a few buget restaurants and i tried two of them. Fourchette buffet is the better one. i ordered some beans, beetroot and two chicken wings which was recommended by the friendly server. they also have bread and other set meals. mine cost around 1500 which is an affordable price in yerevan.
