How safe is Republic of Serbia?

Belgrade

The only people you should be warry of, I'm sorry to say it, but it's the truth, are the Romani people. Other than that, Serbs are very well behaved and it is not a common occurence to rob, mug, assault or anything of that nature. I feel safe even after midnight.

Niš is great, I'm too lazy to write in English because you all have translators, and I'm writing this just to fill out the profile 😂 A student city with hospitable people, excellent food, and a great nightlife, for those who like it, go for it.

It’s very safe for living in my town, and in Serbia overall, for my opinion, people are very friendly and kind here, positive vibes and mentality, always ready to help strangers in need. You can go outside in the night and feel safe.

I'm feeling safe in Serbia,Of course, you should be more careful during the night, but in general it's fine. On the bus, in the city, anywhere in the center, most of the time everything is normal and I have no unpleasant experiences.

It's pretty safe. But like in another large city there in some parts of town that are not safe. You can safely use public transport. Sometimes drunk person will tell you something to you, but you just ignore it. There a lots of good people who are willing to help with everything. They even will walk with you if you can't find a place where you're going to. People are very friendly.

Belgrade, Solo travel

I felt safe walking even at night as a woman. There were many young women who were around my age, on a walk with their friends, pets etc at night and at parks. The cuisine is usually a mix of Ottoman and Italian, not very diverse as a Turkish person. The people were usually kind! My wallet got stolen at Trg Slavija Mc Donald’s tho, I don’t recommend wearing backpacks. The city is small, walkable distance.

I can't recommend Belgrade enough! While to some Europeans, the city might feel shabby due to it's poor maintenance (corruption is bad here), yet, it was the safest city I ever visited. It has a lot to offer in terms of sightseeing and gastronomical tourism. Also, the prices are insanely low and perfect for budget travellers 😇
