Solo travel

I traveled Madrid solo this last January, I can only recommend it. Theres lots of low budget activities and I always felt safe. I also booked a cooking class to learn some classic Spanish dishes, which was wonderful. I stayed near Puerto del Sol for 30 euros a night. Nearly everything is easy to reach by foot.

Family travel

Madrid is amazing, it is the best place to be a home base. The food, culture, going out, everything is top tier. Highly suggest coming here whether it is with family, friends, or even solo trips. Let me know if you’re in the city!

Solo travel

Madrid was a truly positive and enjoyable experience for me. As a woman traveling alone, I felt safe at all times. The city is very clean, and despite being a metropolis, its atmosphere and rhythm offer a deep sense of calm. Thanks to Lucre, whom I met through the Travel Ladies app, I also made a new friend and had a very fun night. Its museums, in particular, are absolutely a must-see.

Be careful for pickpockets, especially in the city center, and attacks in small streets. Always go accompanied if returning late so make sure you have friends or family going with you. Watch over your bags and backpacks for pickpocketing.

it’s very safe, only you have to be careful in the subway with your stuff because there are people that keep your things and you even saw them, there are very careful to steal your phone or your wallet

i’ve been in madrid the last march with a friend of mine. at the beginning we were a little worried about going out in the evening as two girls alone, but it turns out the subways are full at night with different people, there were also local families. we felt really safe both in day and night. the locals were lovable.
