Georgia is pretty safe country for women I will say this, but you still have to be careful around public markets, many cashiers willing to change tourists more. young man will not harass women but older aged men are sometimes angry if you wear revealing clothes so just ignore them if you come across one

Tbilisi

Tbilisi is like an old woman who is always happy to host everyone. Touristy places are alive most of the night, so I don't think you should worry. However, be aware of your surroundings if you are outside the city center, as crime and theft are a bit high in those neighborhoods. As everywhere, be safe and take care.

Tbilisi is pretty safe overall, especially in central areas of the city. I often walk around alone after midnight in Vake-Saburtalo district (close to the city center) and I haven’t had any unpleasant experience. However, you might feel a bit unsafe in suburban areas or around central stations at night.

My first solo trip was to Georgia, and the experience was incredible. The people were extremely friendly, and I never felt unsafe at any point. I even met amazing locals who kindly hosted me in their home, making my journey even more memorable.

Well walking alone at night was actually safer than I thought. Every one is minding their own business, so i did too. In Need of help? Ask a stranger and he will be happy to help. Doesn’t matter if it is day or night time.

For me Tvilisi is the safest cuty, everywhere are some weird people with weird comments, but I have not heard or felt anything bad here. You can walk alone in city center without worry, people are friendly and helpful

Tbilisi

The main streets are very safe whether it is day or night. However there is a little more chance to be someone crazy walking in the dark streets outside the main squares and avenues. Most of the Georgians are hospitable, love tourists and foreigners. However, sometimes older generations are a bit homophobic. They might stare or say something, it is very rare for someone to attack foreigners in Tbilisi.

It’s quite safe town, don’t even remember the last time any crime happened here, town is small and people know each other, so they respect everyone. Town is great in any season, strongly recommended.

Tbilisi

most of the time , its safe city especially at midday, or if you are using public transport or public places, but at night , streets are narrow and little bit dark if its not the main ones, there are also dangerous regions , which i wouldn’t recommend visit, there are weird people there, overall you are safe , but its best if you know your way around and you are not alone 🫶

I did not come across any crime here. We went for the Christmas holiday. It was very nice and fun. The people are friendly, they are just a little weak in the language. If you know Russian and Georgian, you can communicate very easily, but many shopkeepers do not know English, but they are still eager to communicate with body language. And don't forget that the Starbucks here is not the real Starbucks.
