I’ve been to Salvador many times! DM with questions. I have a friend who lives there now and I would happy to hook you up with her. The city feels like Nee Orleans in Brazil. Amazing architecture and art and music scene is one of the best in the world. What is not to love?!?

It depends a lot on where you are. Usually in touristic places you have the same problem as other big cities. In some areas you can feel less safe, but there also places where you are very comfortable. I would say stay alert at all times in general.

Not much to say, but always have to be aware. Salvador is a beautiful city, but m, as all capitals around the world, there are things to be worried about. Safety first! Be careful with jewelry and valuable objects when on the street.
Posted: August 11, 2025Salvador its a safe city, but you need to stay out of favelas. Thats a people neighborhood not a turist point. The people dont speak english but they will do everything to help you. Think like the european pickpocket, soo dont go outside like everything its okay

I love exploring cities on foot, discovering charming cafes, and sharing meaningful conversations. Having traveled extensively through Latin America and Europe, I see travel as the best way to learn about the world and myself. If you enjoy finding new places, tasting local flavors, or simply wandering with no set plan, let’s connect! I believe trips are more memorable when shared with great company and laughter along the way! 😃
