Is Bilbao safe for women?

This city is very safe. Of course there are some neighborhoods where is better not to go at night, Sna Francisco and Cortes streets, but during the day and in the rest of Bilbao is very safe. It feels very safe walking in the city.

Is Bilbao worth visiting?

Travel rating

3.9 /5

based on 3 experiences from female travelers

Solo travel

I felt safe especially during the day time. I would avoid old town and area around the railway station and parque extebarria when it’s dark. Also i would avoid big spanish people celebrations according the risk of terror attack

Solo travel

I have to say, Bilbao is amazing, both for its people and the food. The cost here is affordable, and the people are very friendly. This is not a commercial city, so l recommend planning for three days and two nights if you want somewhere to chill for solo travel. Definitely recommend it!
