Dubai is one of the safest places to be, as a woman I still recommend solo traveling ladies to stay cautious and avoid meeting people in private places, always meet strangers in public places like malls and restaurants or even tourist attractions.
Posted: March 30, 2025Dubai is the safest city in the world!!!! So many times I walk alone in dark alleys at 2am and felt very very safe. It’s really the best place to be a female solo traveler. I don’t have anything to write anymore.

It’s one of the safest city/country in the world. As a women you never need to worry about anything. People are nice and generous as well. However if you’re traveling here you should just research and avoid the overly crowded areas.

Dubai is a Very safe place . It is very easy and safe to walk around at night and police are always accessible in case of emergency. People are helpful and u can report crime quickly if something happens.

Dubai was overall safe in my experience, if you are careful. However, I was being approached in uncomfortable ways by guys, and touched inappropriately in a crowded space after the new year celebration:(

Dubai is totally safe and a lot of helpful people around. Public transportation can get cramped but is still very safe. You can always ask a stranger for directions and will definitely help you out. Expats are every where and for sure you’ll get someone who can soeak your language.
Posted: January 31, 2025Dubai is generally safe place. I am an expat and been here for 17 years. I have never encountered any crime or anything like that. However like any city its always wise to take precautions. Avoid isolated areas late at night, stay aware of surroundings and follow local customs and law.

Dubai is so wonderful city I love Dubai you can safe travel and see many interesting places here. Also if you like go to shopping and desert you will love that city. You can go to the beach. There have only women and children day in the beach.
Posted: January 30, 2025Very safe! It is one of the only places in the world where you can walk alone at night without overthinking. I'd, however, recommend being a bit careful staying in the non-main areas of Dubai like Nahda, Deira, etc, where catcalling could be a little bit of an issue.

I felt safe. In general, it’s possible to reach popular places by public transport. It’s also affordable to rent a car, if you’d like. In my opinion, there is no lots of things to do, you can visit high recommended places in 4-5 days

My first international trip was to Dubai (united Arabic Emirates) . This country especially Dubai is a safe city where the girl can go out at midnight with no fear. The food there is good. About transportation: don't take Taxi everytime because it's more expensive. Use metro or the bus . If anyone going there don't miss sheikh zayed mosque in Abu Dhabi
