Perfect for people seeing something intense and special experience. Most attractive city in Germany absolutely but as a solo traveler, It would be better to take care yourself on nighttime especially.
Posted: July 18, 2026Berlin was fun. We didn’t get in to Berghain (lol) but we did our own tour of the city and the vibes were great. Public transportation is very easy and convenient. Very diverse food options. Great rave venues - I would love to go back and let loose again!

I loveddd loved loved Berlin this is definitely a perfect place to live in. I could find everything I've wanted. Also literally everyone I've interacted with was so sweet and helpful. There were such good shopping places and the food we tried was delicious.

I visited Berlin at the beginning of April and it was so so nice! It is very easy to meet new people, the international setting allows you to meet people from all around the world. I really enjoyed going to a rave and I’m sure I’ll be coming back for more!!

Berlin was really beautiful. I always heard that the city is lame or boring but I had so much fun there, I traveled with one friend and it was very safe!! People are so collaborative and help a lot. However, honestly, I felt minor racism, but it was all amazing!

I spent three days in Berlin and, through this app, I even met a wonderful person who showed me around. We also visited Spreewald, an hour from Berlin, which made the trip even more special. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience: Berlin is vibrant, full of life, and especially in summer. I can truly recommend Highswing to anyone visiting Berlin and go to Spreewald if u like nature — it made the whole experience even more special. ✨

It was my second time in the city already. I think is such a good place to solo travelers. People don't care about what you're doing at all. But is a place where you don't need to feel unsafe. Live is just individualist and you can take your time everywhere. The sensation is incredible if you want to plan a chill trip.
Posted: January 15, 2026Experienced: December, 2024I felt safe during my time and I currently live and study here, but I wouldn’t recommend Berlin to anyone who isn’t really big on clubbing and partying because otherwise it’s a boring city and the weather doesn’t help
Posted: November 16, 2025It does feel safe. And berlin is not as expensive as I thought, much and more is affordable here and the quality at which food gets sold is very much richer than the price. Overall experience has been excellent.

In general it is not more unsafe than other cities Be aware of your surroundings at night and the U8 can get messy. Places like Neukölln and Friedrichshain can feel sketchy but I walk around alone there too.

I would say, you do have to bring a certain adjustment when it comes to the activities you want to do in order of keeping yourself safe (f. e. you don't go to certain areas at night like kottbusser tor or at least you try to be careful).

Berlin is generally quite safe, especially during the day. I would say the “unsafest” areas are Warschauer Straße and Kottbusser Tor as they get quite busy during the night and weekends. You might come across some crazy people on the streets or the S-/U-Bahn but they usually don’t mess with you, just try ignoring them.
Posted: July 5, 2026I always feel comfortable and safe in Berlin also in Kieze that have a bad rumor, like in Neukölln. Subways like the U8 can be scary sometimes but you can always ask people for help if you feel unsafe:) Berlin people are really sweet even if they seem rude sometimes
Posted: July 2, 2026I've been living in Berlin for two years, and I haven't even heard of a crime, let alone witnessed one. So, based on my personal experience, this city feels very safe, and you can live here without fear.
Posted: June 25, 2026Living in Berlin my whole life, I would describe the city as quite safe. I have never had any drastic bad experience here. Everyone can be whoever they want to be and everything is possible, therefore most people are very open and respecting. Of course there are small things happening sometimes, but they happen just the same as in any other big city. I love it here and would choose to live in Berlin over and over again.

Just a girl in Berlin with the dream of seeing beauty, be it in nature, in people or in their art. I recently moved to Berlin and started a life from scratch for the second time. I am currently doing my PhD, and balancing it with so many side quests (this girl got too many interests hahah)! I am a big fan of girlhood and am very much interested in meeting people, hearing their stories, sharing mine and making friends along the way. 🩷
