Is Amsterdam safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

I felt sade my entire visit. I went to stay at a friend’s house and try some restaurants as well as experience the life in Amsterdam. Overall, it was quite enjoyable, I tried a ramen shop, a dessert place, and a road-side hotdog store; they were all amazing and I would definitely recommend visiting Amsterdam.

Group travel

I loved Amsterdam and I would like to go as soon as possible. There are endless possibilities regarding how to spend time. I loved just strolling around the streets. I was always with someone so I felt safe. My only minus is that it is a bit pricey.

Solo travel

It was an excellent short trip of 3 nights and 4 days. We agreed to meet with a friend there and enjoyed the city, the parks, the canals, museums, food and the Netherland atmosphere. We liked it a lot as we are loving traveling and new experiences. I wrote it was a solo trip, because we both came from different countries and we met only in Amsterdam. If you want to visit this city, just go for it, you'll love it.

Loved Amsterdam !! Only went there for a few days and stayed in a hostel but I wished I could have stayed longer! I had always wanted to go see the tulips in the Netherlands and was able to fulfill that wish! The city is beautiful!! Loved the pea soup! The public transports are very easy to use. Everyone I talked to was so nice. And was able to go see Craig Conant's show. Hoping to go back one day!

I traveled during King’s day, which js supposed to be a day for partying and super good vibes. However, I felt like people were extremely rude towards foreigners. They would call me names, stare down at me and the people I had befriended on my hostel. Genuinely, hated the whole experience. Left earlier than expected. It worries me that some nations are becoming very intolerant towards other cultures and visitors.

I would walk round at 3am alone as a female and feel perfectly safe. In the day its even more safe but people do say to keep wary of pickpockets in crowd by the centre, however i havent experienced anything bad there either fortunately

I’ve been living in Amsterdam for three months now and I can say it is pretty safe, I have never felt in danger especially in the city center, it’s always alive. Biking or walking late at night outside the center might be a little scary because the streets are empty but not unsafe necessarily.

I usually feel pretty safe here. I often go out after 9-10 pm and I haven’t faced any problems yet. I hear that sometimes bikes get stolen but it hasn’t happened to me. It also depends on the part of the city - the city center is always filled with people so it’s safe. I live in Noord and here people seem friendly enough.

Civilized city. The culture is very cold and reserved, but highly efficient. If something happens to somebody, the authorities are diligent. However, do not expect the warmth of help in other countries.

You can walk at night, take public transportation without any problem. Go to parties at night or parks during the day. I always feel comfortable and safe, and I’ve never witnessed any crime or harassment. There are just many drug users, but they’ve never bothered me
