Patras is a medium safe place were u can actually find people to stick with. There are some bars that u would feel safer than other bars. People are most of the times kind and open. Students population is big, and so are the things happening/organised by them.

Patra is a student city, with one of the larger universities of Greece. That why when you are out (Mostly in the center of the city) you are never alone, there is always a group of students out and about, that because of the student culture of Greece, are pretty vigilant about protecting others. The only thing that you must be a bit careful about is that in high visit seasons there are a good amount of drunk students that can be a little bit annoying, but nothing really dangerous (from my experience).
Posted: January 12, 2025Very safe overall, would recommend staying to anyone, though not many things to do (limited options). Iโd go back anytime. Only time itโs kinda dangerous is during carnival with thousands of tourists from all over the country. Overall very safe though.
Posted: June 25, 2024Patras is a very safe environment to leave or to join for vacations. The centre of city is easily accessible by cars or buses from wherever in the city you re staying. In addition, there are plenty of beaches to explore and many other touristic regions close to Patras. If you are considering to visit the city you should think about coming at the Carnival session (it s the Greece's famous carnival)

Patras is a student town, so you'll see young people hanging out everywhere, even when walking a bit out of the center. In Greece we stay up late so there always will be people to help in case somthing happens
