Solo travel

I love visiting Groningen - I absolutely recommend renting a bike to get the actual local authentic experience. The city museum is just fantastic, food options are diverse and exciting, lots of nice bars and cofee places, especially in the city centre and close to Rijksuniversity. The park is also a must see, and coffeeshops are safe also for a solo travellers that wants to try!

Groningen is an absolutely beautiful university city that is definitely worth visiting during a train trip to the north. Its stunning architecture and lively nightlife every day of the week, full of young people, are captivating. I felt very safe there.

So far so good! Still got a few days to spare, but I've seen some of the city and explored a bit on Mt own without any problems.

Personally I've never had an unsafe situation in groningen. But on Thursday to Saturday nights there's alot of parties, and dutch people aren't afraid to approach. Id recommend not persee going out very late at night. Groningen city is relatively crowded so theres always people around and near. If you go the the country side there's alot less people, I live in the country side, Personally ive never had issues walking alone late at night, in the dark. (I do recommend not walking alone persee, but it's possible)

Very much safe you can walk around freely many young people are here as it is a student city. For females and especially solo travellers it is a good place a small city but pretty and safe. I have never experienced anything bad here and neither my friends did.

Groningen is a very safe city! I always walk alone anytime of the day, I had some rare occasions where I was disturbed by a stranger but that almost never happens. But as anywhere in the world pay attention to your surroundings and don’t walk alone after dark in deserted places.

Very safe, most people are easy going. Only Paddepoel, Vinkhuizen, Selwerd, and Oosterpoortwijk are a bit less preferable. Also at night it is best to keep business to yourself at the big stations. But overall a great city to be in.

Depends on where you are. But its a student city so the streets are mostly crowded and there are lots of cafés to go to. In some party of the city it is less crowded so keep an eye out for bad neigbourhoods!
