It was safe fun splendid . Nothing to say really. It’s not expensive at all and not very crowded.the Virgin Mary statue is pretty interesting to check out. Also moskes and ancient structures are worth the visit.

Safe in many ways, the crime is so low, the law protect very well all nights, the people harmless and friendly and they protect , you can go out day and night without worrying, you will not find strangers.
Posted: September 4, 2025It si safe enough, but l wouldn’t say the safest city in the world. Yoi can get harassed, but things don’t escalate to rape to abuse for sure. Very hospitable people and friendly women all around, so no worriez at all

Oran is the second largest city in Algeria. It has beautiful beaches and European buildings in the city center, but other areas are poor. Most Oranian people are affected by the struggling economy. Oran is not the best, but it's not the worst either. It is a mid-sized city with mixed conditions. Hopefully, someday we can achieve a modern lifestyle like in Eastern countries.

Overall, the city is pretty safe, especially downtown but on the contrary, at night, it is not. As a local, I know where not to go at and what time to avoid problems. It is highly recommended for women to at least get a guide to show them around.
Posted: December 24, 2024It's fairly safe at day at night in winter for women it won't be as safe as in summer Public transportation is present but you have to be aware of pickpockets and at times a day it can be backed usually around 4 pm
