Kochi could be the most safest in kerala. The people are kind and very attentive. If you are a foreigner there is a high chance locals will ask for higher prices for every types of services. But considering overall safety it is pretty good

Is Kochi worth visiting?

Travel rating

3.9 /5

based on 3 experiences from female travelers

Solo travel

Kochi is a very safe city in Kerala, India. Mind you, it’s still India, so normal caution is advised when travelling alone as a woman, but overall I felt very safe. People are kind, welcoming and very curious to learn about a world where women can freely travel by themselves. I made excellent friends who I am still in touch with today.

About Me

Hii I'm Samasya from Kerala and I love visiting new and old places. My favourite sky colours are clear-bright-blue, dark-grey-blue with thunder, pink-orange with fluffy clouds and black-orange-pink with specs of stars (most favourite). I love both dewy and salty breeze and cherish scents of first rain and freshly brewed coffee. I have only explored some of south India so far, but I do plan on venturing further. I try to travel using public transport and learn how to venture on an extremely low budget. I enjoy both adventurous and soulful journeys.
