How safe is Menton for solo female travelers?

Travel safety index

4.3 /5

based on 3 experiences from female travelers

Group travel

I went with Friends, the Mountains are beautiful and the beaches are perfect. I Loved the colorful Houses and the Promenade. Trips to Monaco and Nizza are easy to Take by train. The food was really good, but expensive.

Family travel

From my relatively short experience in Menton, I must say I have been left dumbfounded. The architecture here has left me greatly amazed for their no mtched beauty. Another aspect worth mentioning hast to be the great drinks and unique foods (I greatly recommend the lemonades and coffees) Travelling and getting around here is surprisingly simple. People are very friendly and me and my sister felt very safe strolling around. All in all, a great and mesmerizing city to visit.

Solo travel

The whole place is stunning. Lots of good restaurants. Avoid those right at the entrance and head to those in the old town to feel a more authentic atmosphere and eat better food!

How safe is Menton for women?

Everybody knows everybody and it is a very close-knit community. The streets are well lit at night and few to no sketchy people hanging around. The only possible danger when walking at night is to be cautious of cars in areas without sidewalks…
