Is Hamburg Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

What a beautiful city to visit in summertime:) There are some many things to do here: visit Miniatur Wunderland (remember to booked the ticket in advance), the Elb river, Elbphilharmonie, Speicherstadt, the Bunker, Elbtunnel, two Bundesliga teams (St.Pauli and HSV), and so many more:) Small tips: you can take some of the ferries for free, instead of paying for the tourist ships, check online in advance! I recommend to stay more than four days here, including weekends since there are markets...

I loved it for the part I visited! It's a very big city and there is a lot of things to do, there's a lot of different cultures. The port is so nice as well as the old town ! There is a big outdoor ice skating ring it was amazing. Food was good and there's so many restaurants!

I went to visit a friend and it was so funny. We cooked together, went to eat on the beach and went to the amusement park. The weather was kinda rainy but I enjoyed it a lot and I felt safe the time I was there.

I felt safe most of the times but in a certain places like Hauptbahnhof or St. Pauli, I try not to pass those places by walking. I also sometimes didnt feel safe at public transports because of the Hijab i wear. Besides that I think Hamburg is wonderful. Ot has bith the criwded streets like Mönckebergstraße and boat trips from Landungsbrücken. I would %100 recommend you to go to Elbphilarmoni buildng. Its free to enter and you can see all the city from its balcony.

Depends on where ur are. Eppendorf and Winterhude is very safe but Reeperbahn, Billstedt, Mümmelmansberg are not that safe. Over all don’t go out alone at night as a Women. And never take the last U Bahn

Overall it’s pretty safe. Just be cautious in a healthy way. :) Daytime is pretty safe. Night time being caution when using public transportation. Some people might be drunk and not aware of their behavior. And if you are a tourist and go back home late at night it’s better to call a MOIA or taxi.

As Long as you do not take or deal drugs, you should be fine. Myb don’t go out drinking alone. Don’t start or involve yourself in fights if it’s not absolutely necessary. Overall Hamburg is pretty safe, but if you aren’t used to big city’s or a wild night life, then try to find someone to navigate you through it. (I’m always open for a little city tour and drink at the schanze :))

From a local perspective I would say that Hamurg is pretty safe. I mean you have to take in consideration, that its still a huge city which always includes crime and stuff but if you know where to go its pretty chill :)
