Is Vienna Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

I love Vienna! It was my first solo journey and I’m so grateful for this experience!!! I felt completely safe there, that’s a city with amazing history, culture and food! I’ve spent not that much, because I like to travel cheap, so I ate mcdonalds and food from supermarket. I used couchsurfing for staying there, it was an amazing experience!!! My couchsurfer was a girl with amazing energy and we were talking a lot about our cultures. I’m in love with Albertina museum and I recommend you to visit it, it’s amazing! Transport aren’t expensive, so I liked it too

Hi, I travelled with my friends there . Every well connected. Very safe even at night times. As always there were some weirdos but leaving them aside it was beautiful place. Lovely buildings. Felt it was too hot. Tasty food and water. Friendly people . Less expensive food when compared to Belgium. Excellent public transport.

Vienna is a very safe city. I really enjoy walking around. We travel there in January 2024 so he was very very cold. The restaurants are a bit expensive. The best thing about this city is that music is everywhere. We attended several jazz concert as well as opera and ballet. We love everything about the concert. It is a romantic city full of music, we also enjoy our shopping experience there in the city centre .

Solo travel

I was meant to go to Vienna with a friend but she unfortunately couldn’t make the trip, so I decided to carry on the trip solo and I am so glad I did. Vienna is one of the safest places I’ve travelled solo, and even better, I made friends along the way. The baroque architecture is gorgeous and I would definitely want to live here. As for the food, went for a delicious vegan Wiener Schnitzel for dinner upon my arrival and then had a Käsespätzle the next day for lunch. I recommend going for a city tour and then checking out one of the museums. Belvedere Palace is a must, a lovely museum inside and out. Even though I went in January, the weather was mild albeit windy. I’d still recommend going during that time as well if you’re looking for a winter city break getaway!

I felt safe in Vienna,mostly a calm city. If you are gonna visit for the first time, easy choice. But if you are a little bit adventurous, can be unsuitable. Except that, great buildings, museums and bakeries. Easy to get around,download a map,you will be find,easy to get a sim card.

I went on a 2 day solo trip to vienna, and overall it was a very safe experience. I did have some issues with communication sometimes because the people i interacted with mostly spoke only german. i also went clubbing alone and even that was very safe. i went to the history museum and i stayed at a hostel and also went to a famous Irish pub in the city and got treated really well by everyone. i would genuinely recommend going to Vienna alone!

Super safe! Delicious pizza (try l’osteria and piazza colombo!) German is a bit hard but most people speak English. The prater is worth a visit. Bring cash! Hostels are also readily available and surprisingly good. I stayed at multiple.

I felt safe as i travelled with my girlfriends, but if i haven't i wouldn't have stayed too late out in the streets. After 10 pm, the whole city was dead and we couldn't find many places that were open. And it was extremely cold in april, and we struggled a lot out in that cold weather.

Vienna is like a fairy tale princess City with lots of castles and gardens and just beautiful scenery. It's priced quite high for everything though. Restaurants and shopping were pretty expensive so I just went to the grocery store and bought sandwich ingredients and fruits to eat throughout the day. It's very clean and safe to be there and I stayed at a hostel in a female dorm and met some really cute amazing women to explore and continue travels with!

I visited Vienna recently with my best friend. We stayed at a small airbnb and roamed around the city. I think it depends on the place where u are but we felt a bit unsafe when it came to being outside. We went to museums and the huge luna park in the middle of the city which i fully recommend!!!

Vienna is mostly really secure place! Just 2 or three areas like some parts of the 10th district … you have to take care during the night, but nothing to bad! Some strange man especially at metro stations may approach you, but just do not answer and they will leave you alone

I grew up in Vienna, I have experienced Vienna as a very safe City. Of course sometimes interesting strangers pass by your way. But never really something happens to me. I know some friends of mine who have experienced Vienna differently than I do. But all in all as a local you're safe. When I went out partying I always took the public transports back home alone and walked alone in the dark - no problem at all.

For me is Vienna a little bit overated. I was on concert with my female friends and we stay in Vienna for 2 night. The city is pretty, but food and drinks are too expensive. Transfer by taxi is so expensive so I recommend metro.

Family travel

easy to reach. Museums cost between 10-20€. It may be expensive if you eat in famous places, but I think it is worth a try. This was my second time going and I had so much fun. You can find cheap opera tickets on the ticket gretchen app. I went to the ballet show for 5€.
