Zagreb is really a safe city, as is the whole Croatia. You can go anywhere alone, although the people are sometimes a bit rude, so they catcall you or give you some kind of compliment. All in all, Croatia is very safe country to walk around freely.

Very safe, good public transport and a nice peaceful neighbourhood. It's ok to walk alone at night and getting a taxi is easy. Worst thing that can happen is a comment from some drunk guy on a friday night

Zagreb is very safe city. You can walk alone at night without worrying about anything. Maybe there are some parts of city that are little bit less safe but still pretty safe. There are no murders here od gun shootings. Biggest problem is bike stealing.
Posted: August 27, 2025I have lived in Zagreb for years and haven’t had a bad or scary experience. I feel safe walking alone at dark. There are some neighbourhoods that are generally less safe (possibility of theft), but they are on the outskirts, so I doubt visitors would found themselves there.
Posted: July 27, 2025Hii, this is for all the girlies coming to Zagreb, i’ve lived here my whole life and never had any problems or was afraid to walk alone at night. Tho i would like to mention that a neighbourhood called Dubrava is the least safe part of Zagreb so i would not recommend booking an apartment there. Any place alse is quite nice. Have a safe trip ladies!

I felt super safe in Zagreb, the food is quite good and in general, the city isn't very expensive. The city itself isn't that big but it's beautiful, have some historical aura to it. The tourist attractions are okay.
