My trip to Brasilia was in a group and only a few days, but the whole time I was there I felt safe and it was also very beautiful. I would recommend it to anyone Who wanted to travel to Brazil In addition to being a mix of political history and beauty
Posted: April 28, 2025It depends on the region you visit in the city. Prioritize staying in well-located areas and enjoy 😊 Noroeste, sudoeste, asa sul, asa norte, lago sul, lago norte, eixo monumental are the best localizations!
Posted: March 25, 2025Except the “Rodoviária do plano piloto” and the highway call “W3”, Brasília is very safe. The places I mentioned have a lot of people and tend to have beggars too. In "W3" there are usually prostitutes at night too. I recommend not going to the satellite cities, as the center, the so-called "Plano Pilot" is much safer.
Posted: February 12, 2025Brasília is safer in comparison to other Brazilian capitals, but it is still a dangerous city for women to walk alone at night, especially because the night life is not as active as other binge cities
Posted: December 29, 2024In my neighbourhood is very safe but there are areas that you must be careful. I use public transport and ealk after dark around my neighbourhood. Brasilia is a planned city. With a lot of cultural events

I won’t advise to walk alone in the park after 9pm, but as long as it’s busy with more people you will be fine. Never had a friend that had a phone stolen, haven’t seen cases with guns, knives or anything like this. Please note I am talking about Brasilia, not the whole Federal District. So, Asa Sul, Asa Norte, Sudoeste, Lago Sul and Lago norte.
