Hamburg is very Safe but of course as women we all have the same fears and the safety measures for at night or when being alone should be the same everywhere. Cause Men …. But Germany is very safe :)

Pretty safe at daytime, after dark it's a bit complicated to say, also depends on where u stay, i wouldn't recommend to go after dark alone, maybe only on not long distances, overall it's like the same with every other city in Germany
Posted: April 24, 2025I think Hamburg is safe beside the main train station and places with many people around. There are many beautiful places to visit or stay. For myself, I live here, and I feel comfortable around here.
Posted: April 21, 2025It highly depends on where you are - the main train station is horrible, but the further away you get, the better it gets. For visiting I would advise to get away from hotels that are on the Reeperbahn, it's the party corner. Very loud and a lot of drunk men.
Posted: April 15, 2025I feel very safe in Hamburg during the day, but at night, like most big cities, I wouldn't want to walk alone in less frequented districts. But I've never been robbed or harassed and during the day never worried that anything bad would happen to me.

Hamburg is a beatiful City I can always eecommend going there. But I would recommend not going outside by yourself at night especially in the areas around the Hbf. The most fun thing we did was going into a local jazz club it was amazing. Hamburg can be a bit more expensive especially if you want to try some of the restaurants there with really great cusuines or when you go second hand shopping which Hamburg has alot of. Traveling around the city is really easy with the Germany Ticket.

Hi, I‘m Emily! I’ve been on holidays with my parents since I was a little girl. When I got older I started traveling with friends. The first time I traveled further away without my parents was truly eye opening for me. I finally felt free and self-determined. I enjoyed planning my trips, organizing what was needed and being in charge of myself, finally listening to what my soul was telling me and putting it into action. That’s when I decided to try solo-traveling. I‘ll begin my very first solo trip in February and will travel through Southeast Asia for approximately 4 months. If anybody would like to meet up or travel together for a bit, feel free to message me! 💕 Meeting new people along the way is actually one of the things I’m most excited about during this upcoming trip (coming from a fellow introvert, haha)!

Hi! I’m Vanessa, 25, born and raised in Hamburg. I’m new to the app and excited to meet inspiring women — whether you’re nearby or just passing through. I’m always open to making new connections, sharing stories, and maybe even finding travel buddies along the way. I’m pretty outgoing and love meaningful conversations, but I also value my quiet moments and the joy of recharging on my own. I like to think that my mix of curiosity, honesty, and a good sense of humor makes me someone people feel comfortable around. If you’re up for coffee chats, cultural exchange, or simply expanding your circle — I’d love to connect!
