Is Berlin Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel experience

Berlin was my second couchsurfing experience and it was amazing! I don't speak German but the locals were really helpful, they mostly speak English. I felt safe with my host all the time, even in questionable parts of the city at night. The public transport is well structured and precise. The food wasn't really special for me, but it's not that expensive, so overall acceptable. You can find many free time activities, I recommend museums for the days and clubs for the nights.

Couple travel experience

Berlin is my favorite place to go. Most of the times I go with my fiancé but sometimes I also travel solo. Fairly safe as the city seems to never sleep. If you like art and music, this is the place to be

Family travel experience

You definitely need to use your common sense in Berlin and keep out of places that aren’t as safe as the other ones. There are some very rude and scary men as well as homeless people. I stayed close with my family, but I wouldn’t feel safe by myself at night.

Solo travel experience

I felt very safe in Berlin. The city was so calm and peaceful despite being a capital it didn't feel crowded at all. I can recommend the tours Destino Berlin offers. The Berlin wall tour was amazing!!! Curry 61 was a nice stop to grab a bite. The transport is very easy to use once you do it once or twice, very clear, clean. I didn't have a very big itinerary because it was the last stop of my trip and I was tired, but I still loved it.

Group travel experience

Berlin was a really cool silly full of quirky people and fashion. I was with a group and with someone who lived there before and showed us all the best food and spots to visit so i was lucky. I think for the most part women can feel safe here by themselves but train stations at night by myself would seem a little creepy. The touristy areas like near the bradenburg gate and such are very crowded but many other neighborhoods like Friedrichshain were calm and not intimidating. I recommend checking out the local parks and having a picnic! I also did some museums as well as the Berlin memorial with free access to the museum across from it.

Solo travel experience

Berlin is a beautiful city offering lots of art and culture. Historical centre is amazing, as well as all of the museums. I especially recommend visiting the Museum Island. If you travel to Berlin, try the famous Berlin doner. One time trying is enough)) As a solo female traveler I felt safe, however I was not out till late.

Solo travel experience

I did not feel safe in Berlin, travelled by train from Hamburg where I have a student pass, I didn’t know they were not valid for train ride in Berlin. The security fined me 60 euros, and was very aggressive regarding taking me out of the train and not wanting to look at my pass. Really ruined my day.

Solo travel experience

I felt incredibly safe in the city. I enjoyed food from different cultures. Transportation was easy to use, and people were significantly friendlier than I expected. It was also very safe at night, which was my priority.

Solo travel experience

I felt safe enough, but lonely. Suggest u to download some apps for meeting in advance, people here are very open an friendly. The city is beautiful, especially central part, visit museums and clubs.

Solo travel experience

I feel really safe in Berlin! After visiting and then staying for a few months I love the people, its a capital city so of course you have to keep your wits about you as its busy and can be hectic but I walk at night late all the time with no worries but of course be careful!

I find Berlin to be pretty safe overall. The crime rates here are similar to other big European cities, and I feel that the neighborhoods are generally well-policed. Public transportation is reliable and feels secure. While violent crime is rare, petty theft and pickpocketing can happen, especially in tourist areas. I always try to be cautious, like avoiding dark areas at night and keeping an eye on my stuff. Despite these minor concerns, I think Berlin is a safe place for both residents and visitors.

Depending where u go, at what times u go there and if alone or with others …. It’s not safer nor more secure than other big cities. U should always take care and pay attention to your surroundings and be peaceful, then everything is fine

Solo travel experience

Berlin is incredibly diverse. Depending on the neighborhood, one should be cautious in the evenings/nights, but otherwise, it’s really great if you like big cities. What’s absolutely recommended: trying out different foods! There are so many great restaurants, cafés, and other food shops ☺️ Berlin is definitely worth a trip!
