Quite safe for females and solo travellers, literally i live and work here so in general the locals are amiable and help whenever you needed. I like to stroll alone at night sometime and it’s considered as a one of the capital city that is comfortable and secure.
Posted: February 18, 2025You can travel alone because Thai people are very kind and polite. But you must maintain basic safety, such as not asking for directions from strangers, but only asking for directions from officials.
Posted: January 18, 2025Pretty safe for traveller who travel alone. You can use public transport safely and easyliy. Street food and all the restaurants are safe. Hotels and hostels are also safe for everyone. Just be careful when walking on the street some street water drains are broken

i think it almost safe. you still have not good area for walking by yourself but in general streets it’s safe . not robbing, murder at all. not sexual harassment from local. only maybe from travellers from india
Posted: January 4, 2025It is very safe for such a large metropolitan city. Be sensible. I find it to be exceptionally peaceful once away from Sukhumvit area. Most of the nonsense is not directed at women. Even parks are public and safe at night.
Posted: December 23, 2024Bangkok is quite safe people is friendly, but you have to beware as well, because people are different. I live in Minburi outside the city my hometown quite safe and mostly are local area and not far from the city
Posted: October 30, 2024Very safe you can walk alone at night but just be smart. What's not safe is the sidewalk because they're not well made. They're made to break down shortly for corruption procurement. Traffic can be quite heavy in many areas and Thais do not respect road rules so you could get hit by anything any time.
Posted: July 14, 2024This is one of the most cities I’ve visited so far in Asia. Men are not cat calling girls and I’ve always feel safe here. I also love that services like Grab offer an option for ladies only, this means I can feel even more safe by taking a cab at night because I know there will be a woman driving.

I have been living in Bangkok for over 15 years now. I would say it is pretty safe for solo traveling, it is safe for a lady. However, beware of surrounding environment and people, do not go to dark spots alone should be keep in mind.
Posted: May 14, 2024Most of the time I felt safe in Bangkok, in my daily life, I travel alone to and back from work around Sukhumvit and Thonburi. The time when I felt unsafe is when taking taxi at the night, so suggest to take public transport if you can or you have to have someone going with you when taking taxi otherwise things will be very fine in Bangkok! :-)

love a good khao soi, anywhere you can get it :) I stayed at the Pula hotel, right next to Si Lom station, very conventionally to get here by public transport. The room is spacious, but nothing special. just wander around and soak in all the hustle and bustle bangkok has to offer 😊
Posted: February 13, 2025Experienced: February, 2025I felt surprisingly safe in Bangkok. Of course the general rules as a solo female traveler still count. Be aware in big crowds and at night. Don’t go into dodgy allies and I guess don’t stay out until too late

Heyy im Aon, I know some of you feel insecure when you are a girl and travel alone! I used to feel that too! So you are my guess!
