Is Paris safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

Paris is a lovely city. Not exactly only in the tourist spots! On my first visit, I didn’t realise Paris as it is, I was in a group and they were very worried about tourist spots. And then I didn’t find the then famous “city of love”. Now in my second time, I discovered the city of love, and I’m not talking about being with someone! Yes, in being with you and finding love in the delicacy of architecture, in the decoration of cute bistros or listening to musicians performing in the late afternoon of the Jardin des Tuileries or sitting down to eat a snack at Jardin du Luxembourg Paris brings art both in its museums but also to be contemplated on the street for everyone 🤍

Stay safe on the roads and on public transport. Avoid tourist scams and you’ll be fine. The French that I have met are kind and friendly. The food depends on the shop you visit, really. So choose wisely :)) Lots of activities to do, especially for those who love arts.

Paris has too much too offer so you will never ran out of things to do. I went in summer, the weather was amazing but I didn’t feel the crowds. There are a lot of places/parks you can visit for free. Paris is quite dirty in some places (the smell of urine is something else) so don’t expect a fairytale.. it can be as cheap as you make it - I ate a lot in bakeries as the pastries are too good to be true.. A lot of places are closed in August as people go on holidays so be warned

Family travel

Paris can be a very beautiful place to visit if you know where to go. I recommend to do some research in advance and it will be fine. There’re a lot of great restaurants especially Asian and African food is great. And their pastries 🥐 are one of the best things ever. My family chose to go to Disneyland Paris and it was beautiful especially for the younger ones. I recommend it. Be careful at tourist areas. I don’t recommend buying anything from the people on the street. Most of them are trying to scam you and be prepared to spend a few bucks.

Yeah I can go to Paris again but take care of your stuff I stayed in a hostel , everything was very very goood it's name enjoy hostel rue plannet I think. Google maps in France in general is very useful

Yo be honest it depends on where you go. I would say that the center is pretty ok. You always have crazy people in the subway or streets like everywhere haha. It’s a bit less safe when you go to northern suburbs. Also the bus in the night (paris métro does not work the night so you have buses in replacement) are sometimes not that safe. I would maybe recommend to take ubers. But i don’t wanna be scary tbh bc overall it’s pretty ok !!

Better not to walk around after 12am but overall it’s safe!! I often take the latest RER A trains in Boissy Saint Leger direction and it’s usually calm and safe. But it’s always better to be with your friends :)

I live in Paris and would say it’s pretty safe. It can depend on the arrondissement in which you’re in : some places in the 18th and the 19th would not be great at night. But overall I think it’s pretty safe.

Paris isn't that unsafe. It depends on where you are and at what time. Public transport late in the night when they are empty can feel unsafe. However as long as there are people around I feel safe in Paris.

I feel like Paris is a very safe city for women travelling alone as long as imyou don’t take risks (like anywhere else really). I don’t feel unsafe while walking alone at night. Some areas (Maybe Porte de la chapelle, Stalingrad) are maybe to avoid at certain hours but to avoid behind bothered (some areas have crack addicts, but they are usually in their own world and don’t bother you, although they can sometimes be a bit scary). I have lived there 10 years and I have never had problems (except for idiots catcalling women). Public transport is very safe. Generally speaking, Paris is safe for women travelling alone, just be cautious as always (but I guess that’s part of being a women, everywhere we go unfortunately!)
