One of the safest countries in the world. I have never been robbed/mugged/attacked, you have to be a bit careful with pickpockets in Ljubljana - or at least so I have heard; but I have been there a lot of times and have never had trouble.

This was my first ever trip fully organized by me and it was wonderful. Ljubljana was so safe and hospitable. People were ready to help and just talk with you telling about their culture and history. Def. recommended.

Koper is a super safe city during the day. Maybe is just being parranoied but i dont like to go out at night even tho its supper safe but you never know. Stay safe ladies. Hobestly i think the worst thing that will happen to you is get your phone/wallet stolen but that has bever happend to ne before.

It is a relatively big town about 6km away from Ljubljana city centre. It's a very safe town with low crime level and i personally feel safe throughout the day but you of course have to be careful like anywhere else...

In general it is a very safe and peaceful country but i would avoid dark allies or the main train stations at night. Durring the day there is very low crime rate and people are very nice. Even durring the night it is not very dangerous but you can meet some people that make you feel uncomfortable, they probably wouldn't hurt you but you can never be too careful.

Very safe however you should always be very careful during the night because you never know who is going to be on the streets during the night. Nevertheless, Ljubljsna and Slovenia in general is a very safe place for women and kids.

Komen
Komen is a very small village where everyone knows everyone and we are all friends! Also beautiful nature BUT we dont have public transport soo thats a bit of a bummer if you dont own a car! We are famous for our wine and prosciutto, grapes, charcuterie, hiking trails and we are very close to two italian beaches so you get to swim aswell!

Very nice city where you feel very safe even in the middle of the night. I walked along the river at night it was beautiful beautiful and very quiet. People are very friendly and caring. Very secure city for woman travelling alone.

Slovenia is so far very safe. For sure anything can happen anywhere so don't push it with walking in the middle of the night in the dark alleys. But I think if something happens, then it is mostly in the cities and not else where.

I think it is one of the safest places in the world. :) The possibility of you becoming a victim of crime is very small. If you like to enjoy the night life in Ljubljana, Maribor or any other town you can do it in a lighthearted way. It is safe even in more remote places (mountains, forest...). I highly reccomend you to visit this beautiful country. :) You won't regret it.

Lake Bled is a fantastic destination for nature lovers. The hikes here are stunning, the hostels are really nice and overall if you want a quiet nature experience (in the city there isnt much to do) its the place to go
