Ostrava
If you don't have some specific activity or thing you want to do there, I'd recommend not visiting Ostrava. It's not particularly interesting to tourists, and the overall safety is not worth it. Men can shout at you in the streets, and people in general are not really friendly.

I found Prague quite city and safe. You can do anything you want there. There’s many homeless on street but they can’t do anything to you even walking alone in midnight, nothing can happen to you. Even it’s beautiful city

I'd say it's safe to take public transport but to be honest I don't always feel comfortable completely safw walking alone in the evening. And catcalling is definitely a daily type of thing. (would recommend not to interact honestly)

I've lived in Brno all my life and consider it a very safe city. Violent crime is rare, and even at night I feel comfortable walking or using public transport. Just be careful with pickpockets in busy spots.

Hradec is really safe, like me and my friends roam around as early as 5am after being out the whole day and still fell safe moving around like that. I think overall, the atmosphere is really comfy and safe really.

Prague is the safest city I've lived in and I can 100% say that I never feel unsafe. Of course, I don't walk through parks or unlit alleys at night (anywhere I go), but Prague is one of the safest cities in Europe and I can vouch for that.

Prague, Group travel
I felt very safe. The food was average, but we also did not eat local foods or researched where to eat. So that could probably been „our fault“. But it also wasn’t bad. The city was very beautiful. We walked a lot, but you could also use the local tram. It came very regularly and the tickets weren‘t expensive.

I felt completely safe in Prague even at night.A lot of cafes or shops work 24/7which is very convenient. Also public transportation is very convenient and safe. Activities were very interesting and locals are very helpful
