Brno
Day: The more u are away from train station the better u gonna feel. But its nothing rlly to be worried abt :) Night: At night it kinda depends on where are u going. The train station at night is alright bcs there are lot of people waiting for buses so its not that bad.

It’s a small town, where a lot of elderly people or families live. It is definitely safe. Sometimes there are weird people around the bus station but they never did anything to me. In case of any shouting at you etc just ignore them because they will not approach

Prague is generally safe for girls, but watch out for pickpockets in busy tourist areas. Be cautious around the main railway station and nearby parks, as there can be drug addicts and homeless people who might be unpredictable. Otherwise, it’s a great city to explore comfortably on your own.

Prague despite being the capital of the Czech Republic is among the safest places you can visit. The worst things that ever happened to me (and I was a very stupid teenager with no sense of self preservation) was unwanted chats and invitations or people touching my hair when it was really long (sadly as we know, this usually affects younger girls, it got better as we aged). But as long as you enforce your boundaries, nothing’s going to happen. Be confident and don’t be afraid to be loud and you’ll be completely safe. The only thing you should be cautious about are tourist scams (check out Honest Guide on YouTube - taxis, exchanges) and I’ve heard pick pocketing is on the rise in Europe in general, though I have no experience with that. I know that after what I wrote it might seem scary, but it is actually rarely the case that anything bad will happen to you in Prague.

I’ve lived in Prague for 15 years and always felt very safe as a girl. Apart from one time my bag was stolen in the metro and a single uncomfortable encounter, I’ve never experienced anything serious. It’s a calm and safe city overall.

Brno is a really good and safe city for women. As long as you’re careful around the main train station or some specific spots, there’s nothing to worry about. Every city has its own sketchy areas, but overall Brno is quite safe. There are definitely some “crazy” people here—meaning you might see things that are unusual or surprising—but that’s true anywhere, and it’s usually nothing life-threatening.

I am traveling with my best friend and we stayed at the best spot Hostel. We had some problems with changing the money from euro to Krone but after that it was super nice to walk through the city and join a free tour. The food was also very nice and there were many different options to choose from😋

I felt safe in Prague. I recommend going to a restaurant Čertovka there is the narrowest Street in Prague that leads you into this restaurant, the drinks are good there and the wiew is really pretty. I also recommend going to the Prague Castle, the wiew is amazing and the castle is really pretty.
