Is Vienna Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Group travel

We did an audiotour "Self-guided Walking Tour of the Vienna City" from Booking.com and used it for the three days we were in Vienna to everyday listen to new information about some attractions and really loved it. It was an easy way to really learn about Viennese history and see the layers of history the city has. We stayed in the Meininger Hotel Downtown Franz, and i would really recommend it. We slept in the dormitory room, and were pleasantly surprised at the privacy each bed offered and overall our experience was really good from the helpful and friendly staff to the nice guest kitchen and overall good vibe and easy stay. It was also on a walking distance from the city centre. Overall a super interesting city with lots of history and perfect for a weekend getaway, but didn't really vibe with the city as i have with some other places. The city itself didnt leave a mark in my heart and i wouldn't visit again although i really enjoyed our trip.

I had a wonderful time in Vienna! I felt completely safe throughout my stay. I highly recommend visiting the main landmarks as well as Prater, which was a fun experience. For two days, I spent around 100 euros in total. We stayed in an Airbnb, which was comfortable and convenient. To get around the city, we primarily used trams, which were efficient and easy to navigate. Vienna is a beautiful city with so much to offer, and I would love to visit again in the future!

Solo travel

I really love Vienna! It’s so beautiful and cosy city. It is also very international. I’ve been there few times and every single time I fall in love with the city over and over again! It’s very historical and green.

Solo travel

I went alone in Vienna and I actually felt really safe food and everything was great and also because I’m vegan so I found a lot of vegan places in Vienna that have great food and I have like a list on Google Maps so if anyone wants I can share it with you also I have a budget like 150 euro I was staying with a family so they’re like a distant family so it was better and I didn’t waste a lot of money and yeah also I think it’s very safe for a woman and it’s really nice and for activities I really never went for the nightlife even though I wanted to but I am planning on going this year to Vienna and I seen the nightlife. for transport I usually go around with the uban or buses like you can literally go anywhere like you go with uban and you go like from one side of the other side and there are they’re just like really okay with the prices and everything and the buses like you can get like a ticket for one week or a month or just depends on how much you stay in everything and you can get like a lot of to like you’re going to get a lot of to see from vienna and everything and plus you know the river is really nice so you can see that and you can go to the beach in summer

Vienna is awesome! I really recommend eating in the Centimeter - a great restaurant with reasonable prices and huuuge portions. Serves both local and European food, so that’s a plus! Besides the main attraction in Vienna (that I am sure that you know of) there are also cool jazz bars that are worth the visit. Very safe at night, didn’t have a problem with that. Great transportation system. 50 euros a day are enough in you plan to buy some stuff and to eat out but not it the most expensive places. If you plan on cooking, much less will do the work.

It was so fun but it was so fricking cold! We couldnt enjoy outside at all but every single thing we ve been was really fyn. It is really expensive though. Getting into touristic attractions took at least 100 euros

Solo travel

I felt very safe. Even though Viena is very expensive I could enjoy it either way. Ut was more of a budget trip so I really tried not to spent a lot. The museums were very expensive but I could visit 2, one of them was free at that day and the other one “ musa museum” is free so I still get to enjoy. If you’re able to spent more on that I would recommend Albertina museum. I stayed at the Metro apartments for 3 days and it was like 70€. It’s pretty good I think and it was only one hour walking from the center. If you’re visiting on Christmas I recommend to check the Christmas markets. Food recommendation - wurstelstand. That’s it, have a safe trip:)

I can say that Viana is a safe city. I stayed in a nice hotel in the city center and walked to the X-mas markets. Although it got dark early and it was the most crowded time of the city, I did not have any security problems. .

Vienna is a fantastic city to visit solo. I felt very safe the whole time. Mostly everyone spoke English. The waiters were all very friendly. The public transport was easy to take and use. The city was beautiful. It was quite expensive.

I think all in all Vienna is not unsafe, but it depends a lot on where in Vienna you are. There are safer places (I believe the centre of Vienna is one of the safer ones) but there are also more dangerous ones.

Overall, it is a very quiet and safe city, as far as I have experienced it. People are minding their business on the public transport and I haven't witnessed or received negative situations. Even at night, the city is well lit and it gives you a sense of security!
