Copenhagen is very very safe even after dark. I never felt unsafe nor threatened in this city. The public transportation here is TOP TIER! The metros interval is less than 3 min. It is a very pretty city but I wouldn't recommend going there in the fall. The weather was too hard harsh for me to enjoy my whole trip.

I was in Copenhagen for almost a week by myself - i felt safe but was not out late. The transportation by bus is okey, but regret not renting a bike. Go to the museums - the K1 was amazing! Did a lot of trifting and it was a little overpized and curated for my taste.

My trip to Copenhagen was amazing! I fell in love with the city from the moment I arrived! The city was very clean and beautiful. I felt safe during the night walk (around 9-10 pm) and didn’t see any weird people around the center. The weather was a bit windy but it didn’t ruin the experience I had. Highly recommended for solo travelers 🫶
Posted: April 14, 2025I was on Bornholm for only two weeks and it was very beautiful. I do have to say that especially in winter…there is not a lot to do since the touristic season hasn’t yet begun. It is a super super beautiful place and I don’t think you will find any place in which you feel safer than there. It is calm and relaxing but there is quite a lot of cool attractions to see. I recommend a bike to get around. There are a lot of beautiful bike trails throughout the island.

Copenhagen was the first place I did my fully solo trip, and it was a learning experience! Great city! Walkable and nice vibe! Felt safe everywhere, but I was mostly in the city centre! Great people, good food, lovely pastries 🍰
Posted: April 5, 2025Experienced: September, 2023The city itself was kinda safe, but it was necessary to avoid some shady parts of the city. In the dark, there were some groups shouting on the streets, probably drunken tourists. I personally went to Christiania, which, to a solo traveler, felt sometimes scary. I got cat called once there. But it seemed like a group of male tourists who went there just to get high.

Went to Denmark for a workation and it’s been perfect! Nice weather, close to the sea, and lots of sweet places. Best here definitely the nature but second stores also convince although they are a bit overpriced.

I love Copenhagen! And me and my friends had the best time! We never felt uncomfortable or unsafe I would recommend reffen, the food and the vibe are just amazing! And I would also recommend to just to walk everywhere or take the subway.
Posted: March 3, 2025Copenhagen is a beautiful and very safe city. I recommend seeing as much as possible and trying the cinnamon rolls and kardamomo rolls. I stayed in a hostel with private bathrooms and a high-up view of Copenhagen. We got around on foot to see as much as possible and explore the city's hidden corners.
Posted: March 1, 2025Experienced: November, 2024Great place with a lot to do. Was for a couple of days and loved it. Great public transportation and felt very safe.. the only downside is that it can be quite expensive. At least 2 days are needed to see most of the city

Copenhagen is a safe and beautiful city with high security. You should of course always think smart if you are on your own. There will always be idiots. But I have never had any bad experiences in my lovely hometown <‘3

I ask strangers to watch over my things if I have to use the bathroom, I can walk alone / use public transportation at night without the slightest fear that something may happen, you can dress however you like and still not have to worry.

Hi there, I’m a 27 year old mom to a 1 year old all pro the girlies! I just learned about this app and I’m loving it!! I don’t travel much at the moment but if one of you ladies need a safe space to stay at visiting Denmark, feel free to text me! I have a safe place to sleep, shower, eat, relax, whatever you wanna do. If I have the time or am able to take the time, I’ll take you for a trip to the capitol too (which is only 30 mins by train from here). I’ll show you all the fun stuff and the tourist need to see. But I also know Copenhagen well enough to know the hidden gems. I’m fluent in Danish and English and learning Portuguese/spanish so I know maybe 10% of that.. Portuguese is the Brazilian version for me (Because apparently Duolingo think it’s the same) but my boyfriend is fluent in Portuguese from Portugal and teaching our daughter.

Hello, I am from Moldova 🇲🇩. I am an engineer (meber of BEST, for those who can relate 😉), nature lover, artist 🎨 and I love hiking and travelling to all kinds of places. I often camp and visit nature rather than cities.
Sinem
Hiii My name is Sinem, I'm 20 years old and currently living in Lithuania as an Erasmus student. I’m originally from İzmir, Turkey, and I study Mechanical Engineering. I’ve always loved exploring new countries and learning about different cultures, which is why I enjoy using Couchsurfing — I believe meeting and talking with locals helps me understand a place in a much deeper and more authentic way. Over the past month and a half, I’ve had the chance to travel to Latvia, Sweden, Estonia, and Finland. I’m a curious person who’s always eager to learn new things, and I’d love to share my culture while discovering others’. Friends describe me as polite, respectful, and easy to get along with. I’m really looking forward to making meaningful connections along the way!
