Is Germany Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Germany is generally a very safe destination for solo female travelers. The crime rate is low and local citizens are typically courteous and helpful. Public transportation, including trains and busses, is widely available and secure. Nevertheless, previously would be wise to respect general safety guidelines as in any other place, such as avoiding isolated areas late at night and being aware of your belongings. German people usually speak English, which makes communication easier. Remember, always trust your instincts.

Germany, Solo travel

I went to Bonn to visit a friend of mine and it was an amazing experience. The river was so nearby and with the train Cologne was only an hour. I also liked Koblenz and I recommend to everyone. Just go and explore

Berlin, Group travel

Berlin was fun. We didn’t get in to Berghain (lol) but we did our own tour of the city and the vibes were great. Public transportation is very easy and convenient. Very diverse food options. Great rave venues - I would love to go back and let loose again!

I visited Berlin at the beginning of April and it was so so nice! It is very easy to meet new people, the international setting allows you to meet people from all around the world. I really enjoyed going to a rave and I’m sure I’ll be coming back for more!!

Munich

Munich is generally very safe city both of families with small kids and women. It's always good to be careful at night, especially in the area next to central train station. English Garten is cool place to visit best during the day

Lorrach

Lörrach is generally quite safe. Crime seems to be rising every year, but nothing that stands out compared to other cities. As always, some caution is sensible at night, but overall it doesn't feel particularly unsafe to me. Bé careful around parks and Hbf/Busbahnhof

Rosenheim

Rosenheim is very generally safe, still I'd recommend common safety rules (i.e. not walking through a park alone at night etc.) Be aware that during "Herbstfest" (kind of like a small Oktoberfest) there can be a lot of (drunk) people around the festival area.

Munich

Munich is generally safe for women. At night, you only feel less comfortable around the main train station or maybe in rougher neighborhoods like Neuperlach, Hasenbergl, etc. So far, I've experienced much more in other cities.

About me

Hola ladiesss, I’m Lara, 20 years old, born and raised in Germany, and I want to learn as much as I can from the world! My family is originally from Turkey, and I am lucky to say that they taught me the language as well as the culture. The most important part of my life is family, but for me, family isn’t just the people I am related to; also a good amount of my friends I consider family. I am looking forward to getting to know each other :)
