I did not feel too safe there. The city is quite grey. But i do recommend going to the very very high staircase, climbing to the top and taking in the view. That was beautiful. I can also reccommend taking the trains, they were good and i felt safe.

It’s mostly safe, except for the train station neighbourhood… I would avoid going rue des Guillemins and in front of the station at night. But still if you have to it’s not dangerous, it’s just unpleasant!

Hello! Liège is a nice city, but if you’re traveling alone, please be careful in the city center at night. During the day, I feel quite safe, but in the evenings I try not to be alone. There are definitely some quiet and pleasant neighborhoods, but in my opinion, the city center in the evening or at night is not very safe.

Liège is the kind of city you need to be born into. As a local, I know very well how to behave, where to go and what to do. But for foreigners I'd always advise to meet up with a local to know about these things. Our city is under construction to build a tramway and so many areas are unsafe because it's just a mess. Lots of people are very kind and lovely but homelessness is a huge issue and they cause trouble any chance they get and a lot of us are pissed.

Liege is an overall safe city, but there are a lot of neighborhoods to avoid. As a local and as a girl, I've learned to avoid these neighborhoods, but you sometimes have to go through them in order to get to your destination. The bus is a really great way to get around and I feel very safe in them except when it's the last bus of the day and its 11pm and you're alone lol.

There’s a lot of toxicomane and homeless people. Most of them are okay and won’t disturb you, but it can be scary - mostly at night. By day time it’s totally safe, but at night, most of the time we won’t let our friends go home all alone.
