Is London safe for solo female travelers?

Group travel

I enjoyed traveling to London I was able to visit several famous places as well as museums The only negative points were that I could not choose my own program, and that the sandwiches that we received in host families were not very good I enjoyed it and I felt great there What is certain is that I have finally scheduled my program to go back, all I have to do is choose the dates !

i’ve been in london with a friend of mine two years ago in september. we’ve been hosted by a madam who was a old friend of my friend’s parents. she lived in maida valley, a lovely neighborhood far about four subway stops from Trafalgar Square. the city is wonderful and full of cultural activities, we went every night to the theatre. i really suggest to go to the globen theatre to see some shakespeare’s play. the food isnt so good, but its a good city to try multiethnic food, especially in the borrow market. we felt pretty safe with the light, but there are some weird subjects, so you always have to keep your eyes open, in fact everyday at 22.00 we were at home.

London was very nice. We visited the Warner Bros Studio Harry Potter. This was the best experience in London. On the other days we visited the Sherlock holmes museum in the Baker street 221 B. The London Eye, Big Ben and Tower Bridge. The hole trip was very nice.

Solo travel

I felt very safe in London. I traveled alone at 18 and stayed at The New Linden Hotel, which was central but not too busy. I used the underground by myself to get around and walked a lot. The city system was easy to understand, and I mainly stayed in tourist areas. I always wore my bag crossbody so nothing could be stolen. I was lucky with the weather (22°C and sunny), which made the trip even better. I really enjoyed the city and would love to return – though next time not alone!

Solo travel

I love London, and I’ve been there multiple times, both alone and with my family. I was 15 when I was in London alone for the first time. I stayed with some family, but I was mostly out alone. I feel safe walking around and haven’t had any uncomfortable experiences ‘yet’. I have mostly stayed around Pimlico, Knightsbridge or in Mayfair, love them all and feel safe. The people are relatively nice and open. The food is good and you can find all kind of foods and drinks, the prices are maybe a bit pricey though.

Londoners are super nice, kind, give you a good welcome The city is super secure The only danger was that a few people could steal your phones by passing by you and then running away, which was heard a lot

It’s alright, honestly it’s not as unsafe as people think, just stay wary, KEEP YOUR PHONES AWAY! don’t just have it sitting in an unzipped pocket, and be aware of cyclists and motorbikes, and especially in more central areas

Depends on the area, but generally trust your gut and mind your business, and you'll be fine. Watch out for phone snatchers, though. Knife crime exists but is no more significant than in other major cities in other countries. Don't fall for moral panics.

It is quite safe but I would be aware of backstreets. It is quite safe but I would be aware of backstreets. It is quite safe but I would be aware of backstreets. It is quite safe but I would be aware of backstreets.

Hi all to anyone travelling to London Crime has risen but can still be enjoyed. Top tips are have your bag infront of you,be alert in crowds day/night. Pick the safest option when travelling at night.
