Is Toronto Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

Toronto is chaotic. I did use the GO system that took me into Union station. From there you get shoved and pushed around, no one to ask for directions or how to connect to a train or bus. Decided to take Lyft for a bite to eat near where I was visiting - the driver was very nice and there was many food options

Toronto is the perfect city for travelling. I recommend stay near Harbour bay, there’re lots of Airbnb style hotel with good price. The food on Dundas street is incredible, and I really really like Hot hot rice noodle - the Crispy Pork rice noodle is amazing. Speaking of food, you can’t miss traditional Canadian food called poutine! And also I love Ice Wine sooooo much! Toronto is also a safe city, although you need be careful when you travel at late night in downtown. Otherwise it’s fine. I like Casa Roma, worthy of one-day visiting. CN tower is nice to visit, although I didn’t go to the very top of it (I remember it has different price for different level). I like Harbour bay too.

Very safe city. Though I find the best tome to travel to Toronto is during summer bc winter can be a bit harsh. The food is generally great and you can find restaurants that focus on different cultures!

I feel really safe here in Toronto. People are nice. I've been staying here since Sept '23, and I'll be leaving in a month, but I think for girls, it's a good place to visit! The only bummer is the cost—everything's so expensive, especially for me coming from Italy, where I was used to way cheaper prices. Still recommend coming, though!

Love how the city is so diversed and so much fun things to do all year long. I would recommend going to the beach off from the queens way. Little china is an amazing place to check out to if you like buying little things from your travels. The night life there is amazing almost anywhere you go there will be happy faces to welcome you.

I have lived in Toronto for over 3 and a half years now and it is the perfect city to live in! It is so vibrant, friendly and multicultural. I have never visited a city where I feel more safe in. It is a foodie heaven and so cultural, with so many things to do. The perfect place to be.

I love Toronto so much. People is so kind. I enjoyed lot. I learn multi culture. It is very good experience for me. In there I enjoyed food from all over the world as well. I could meet people from many country as well. In the summer there was lot of events and festival. In the winter I enjoyed winter sports I will back there for sure.

A beautiful city with so many things to see. I stayed in the downtown, watched a show and tried out different restaurants. Lots of things to do all summer. Very nice and helpful people. I easily found my way.

I love Toronto. I've been there many times as a solo traveller and I always felt safe. "Sharks After Dark" at the aquarium is a great attraction. Fantastic food - lots of ethnic diversity. Public transportation is also easy. There are many places to visit and activities in the city center, which are within walking distance.

Great city to move around and find multicultural restaurants and places to visit. Transportation is easy enough but this city is very expensive, so come with a budget to enjoy it

It depends where you are in the city, time of day, if you're alone, etc. Public transportation has had some unprovoked random attacks since COVID but it's still the most common way to get around. Overall I would say I feel safe.

Homelessness has increased in the last few years. I'm most afraid of them. I can't even walk on the streets without any fear. They are very aggressive, even though you ignore them, they still harass or abuse you. I felt more safer in my native country than here.
