Couple travel

I visited Düsseldorf last year with my boyfriend to attend a concert. While the show was great, we didn’t really feel safe in the city, and the overall vibe felt a bit grey and lifeless. There wasn’t much going on, and it lacked the color and energy we enjoy when traveling. Fun fact: we even had to go all the way to Essen just to find postcards!

I staid at my boyfriend’s place. I really enjoyed walking around at night in Düsseldorf. Food is okysh. We visited an Asian “all you can eat” restaurant. The atmosphere was great and people were nice. I like walking near the river during evening :)

I felt safe but I was also there for 24hrs. There was a lot of places to walk to but I felt limited with choice of things to see. I would definetly recommend the Old Town in the evening for a drink and food.

I would say that Düsseldorf is quite a safe city, even during nights. But as a girl you still should be careful and try to avoid empty streets. The most unpleasant place is Hbf, other than that is okay.

Depends on where you are it’s rather safe. Maybe take care of your belongings in public places and don’t hang out at the central station at night. Overall I did not have any bad experiences yet besides the (unfortunately) normal amount of catcalling at clubs/bars etc.

Düsseldorf is very safe and well-lit, both day and night. Walking alone as a woman feels secure at any time. The Old Town nightlife is also safe, though, as everywhere, usual care when under the influence is wise. Having lived here for years, I find it one of the safest cities I have ever known
