Is Yerevan Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

before going there, i read some posts about travel experience in Yerevan on Chinese social media. and they say that eating there can be even more expensive than in tbilisi. they recommend a few buget restaurants and i tried two of them. Fourchette buffet is the better one. i ordered some beans, beetroot and two chicken wings which was recommended by the friendly server. they also have bread and other set meals. mine cost around 1500 which is an affordable price in yerevan.

I LOVED Yerevan/armenia in general! Felt like a blend of European/middle eastern/russian/central Asian cultures. Hotels & airbnb’s were more expensive than I was expecting. The food was delicious. I recommend doing a couple of day trips down south and also up to lake sevan

I was in Yerevan for a week, and I had a great time! It’s a small city, so a week is enough. The people there are very friendly, the food very delicious, and the prices cheap! Would go again, but maybe in the summer :)

Armenia is amazing if you are a girl. Locals are very sweet and respectful, they would never let you carry a heavy bag by yourself and everyone is always willing to show you around or give directions. Taxi is available and affordable and there will always be an empty room at a hotel. The local food is a form of art. And everything is VERY cheap. Overall just an amazing place to visit!!

I was there on business, but I stayed for an additional 3 days. I fell in love with this beautiful city. There was so much to discover, and the people were so welcoming! I felt very safe. The restaurants, accommodation, and transport (apart from the cost of the flight) were good and inexpensive. I hope that one day I can return there!

To-do: - Victory Park - Mother Armenia Monument - Republic Square - Cascade - Saint Gregory Cathedral - Freedom Square - Opera House - Swan Lake Safety: I can definitely confirm that it's very safe there. Recommendations: Yerevan is really a pretty city, although there's not a lot to do there, so I wouldn't spend too much time there.

To do: - Republic Square - Cascade Complex - Tsitsernakaberd Armenian Genocide Memorial Complex - Zvartnots Cathedral - Mother Church of Holy Etchmiadzin - Vernissage Safety: I felt really safe. Recommendations: Yerevan is a wonderful city that is not dominated by tourists and from here you can easily embark on many day trips.

Yerevan is quite a safe city, however women walking alone after 11 pm can receive "invitations" from men to join them in their car. Make sure to dress in a conservative way if you have to walk alonr at night. And well, be mindful of your bag in public turisty places, and taxi scams.

Yerevan is pretty safe for women. The main issue will obviously be walking in dark places alone at night but meeting a creep is not as common as you might think. You also might receive side eyes for your outfit in Yerevan suburbs. In the center usually nobody cares. Overall I would rate the safety 9/10.
