How safe is Czech Republic?

Czech Republic is safe. Most people will let you be if you mind your own buisness. It is frowned upon to be loud especially in public transport, so there is a likelihood of people either shushing you or giving you bad looks if you do not follow this unspoken rule. It is safe to walk around at night, but even as a local I try to avoid places where a lot of homeless people and drug abusers reside (some metro stations and some squares). Drink only as much as u can handle (Don’t get blackout drunk ever.) - but I feel like that is pretty understandable rule.

I live in Dobřany my whole life and I have never felt more safe in any other city. Dobřany is the most safe city I have ever been in. I don't know anyone who has been robbed or somehow criminal attacked in Dobřany.

Totally chill and safe city. I can walk alone from the club to the dorm and feel totally safe, no catcalls or anything like that. People just mind their own business, since the city is small, there are no illegal immigrants.

Prague is a really safe city. You don’t have to worry that someone will steal your wallet or phone. I very rarely witness that someone even argues at the streets. In the evening don’t worry about being kidnapped or worried, just some disgusting smell might be (because of ☘️ and homeless people) and that’s it

I have never experienced anything beside cat calling, those happened to me in every country (unfortunately) Over all if you don’t give the noice too much thought you wont be worried, mostly nothing is about you anyway, people are just annoying.

we're a really small village, almost everyone knows each other, so I'm not as worried about something bad happening - I'm just an overall anxious person, so that might influence my rating haha but nothing ever happened to me here, safety wise

I feel really safe in the Czech Republic. It’s a peaceful country with low crime rates, especially in smaller towns and cities. I can walk around alone, even in the evening, without feeling uncomfortable. Of course, like anywhere, it’s good to stay aware of your surroundings, but overall it’s a safe place to live and travel.

Prague feels super safe to me — I can walk around at night and not worry about anything happening. Sometimes you might get catcalled, but honestly, that’s only happened to me like five times in the three years I’ve lived in Prague.

Never had any problems, apart from getting unnecessarily sexual comments, time to time. Crime is low, I have never experienced a robbery or a mugging. And I repeatedly go out in the dark alone without even a pepper spray, so I’d say you’re good.

In Czech Republic there are similar levels of criminality in each town. I've heard about 3 people being killed in past year. There is a lot of drug addicts in the streets especially at the train stations.

I didn’t feel safe all the time, but I really liked my experience there. This city is extremely beautiful, has unique architecture. The prices surprised me, I expected them to be lower, but it’s acceptable. I really like the food - especially the meat and the beer

Hi there! Writing this on the way back from my solo trip. First, I felt really safe, everyone was so lovely and chatty. Great experience for extroverts, as an introvert I surprisingly enjoyed it a lot. Random dancing, drinks, everyone laughing and having good fun made it feel like a movie. I stayed at SPIRIT capsule hotel near Ańdel. In my opinion location was great. Wasn’t too far from everything. I saw a lot of old and new town, national museum and the ZOO. Also went to Moonclub which I recommend!

About Me
Hi there! I’m Emily a student of Travel and Tourism with a passion for getting lost—both in new places and in books, especially the unhinged fantasy kind where dragons have attitude problems and reality takes a back seat. I live for hiking, exploring, scribbling my chaotic thoughts on paper, and having deep existential crises about what I want to do in life (spoiler: no clue). All I know is I want to meet new people, travel the world, and say “yes” to unhinged opportunities that make for great stories—or at least strong memories!
