Depends on the area where you're at and the time. Down town it's fine, you can walk and find a lot of people but for me it's better to walk before 9pm, it's ok if you want to walk later I just personally feel a bit unsafe there.
Posted: April 12, 2025Guadalajara’s hotspots and touristic spots are fairly safe in the daytime. But for a solo female traveller you really ought to be careful after dark, and ask locals about safety precautions and possible dangers.
Posted: January 5, 2025Guadalajara it’s a great destination if you come to Mexico. It’s full of cultural spots and new trendy places when it comes to art, design or even fashion. It’s a very safe city but you have to be careful in some areas
Posted: September 8, 2024I think Guadalajara is mostly safe, at least in the most touristy places and during the day, maybe I would be a bit more cautious at night and avoid to walk alone. Always keep an eye on your stuff, there might be pickpockets in some areas
Posted: August 18, 2024It’s a great city but if you’re open eyes and careful in the nightlife because the violence against women is increasing a lot But the people, in general, are nice and warm. You have to be careful walking at night and also for the uber

Hiii, I'm Verónica, from Mexico. I'm biologist, scuba diver and vegan too, I love to explore nature especially the marine life. I've been solo traveling since 2022 after a breakup and that helped me to live a great life adventure, so I want to keep exploring other places and meet other people around the world. It's wonderful to find traveler women communities to help each other and share great moments.
