How safe is Aix-en-Provence for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

Aix was a wonderful place for a quaint, peaceful trip. Shopping was excellent with stores like Ralph Lauren, Intimissimi, Hermes, and local boutiques (definitely try out the shoe store in the town center). Amenities where readily available with Monoprix being a convenient walk away for anything from clothing to groceries. The wine tasting was amazing as well. Businesses from wine cellars to the Sephora in town are located within centuries old buildings, like walking through caves! The best...

Such a safe placing !! I used to go out with friends quite late and I never had a single issue! Police is something lurking around center which in my opinion makes extra safe. Lots of young people going out too

This city is actually very calm and welcoming, at night there are quite drunk people but nothing ever happened to me, people may talk to you and be kinda annoying but nothing really bad happens and there are always king people to help out anyway

Very safe town to travel to. I’ve never had any issues, and if there is a problem, people around will help. The city center is very small so you can walk anywhere in no time. Overall, six en Provence is a great place to visit.

About me

Hi, I’m Sena, I’m 19 years old, and I’m currently doing volunteer work in Aix-en-Provence. I’m here for six months and would really love to meet new people. I love trying new things and exploring. Whether it’s nature, art, music, or even food—I’m pretty much up for anything. I came to France to improve my French and to grow personally. I think traveling and meeting new people is the best way to do that. ☺️💕
