based on 5 experiences from female travelers
I was in rhodos in January, the first night alone, the rest with a female friend. When i was on my own i didn't feel super safe. There are mostly men outside and I was not sure how kind they were... until i talked to a few and they were all very nice and friendly. We got around by bus. You can trust Google maps with the timings. Buy lots of fresh veggies and fruit, its so cheap! The Hummus is really good too.
Posted: January 21, 2025Experienced: December, 2024I felt safe, it was a very good experience overall. The island is not too big, so you can be satisfied after a week, but still be able to come back and discover more. It’s really pretty and you should visit the old part.

I felt that Rhodes old town was safe to walk around in both during the days and night. I was wish with my girlfriend and we didn’t have any guys pulling and following us like in other countries I have been in. The food was really good, I live Greek food. I am also gluten intolerant and almost every retrace both pizza and pasta the was gluten free and they where really helpful with explaining what was in the food. I really love the green people m, I think k they are nice and always very helpful. I will do my first solo trip to Rhodes in April, and felt safe and thought it was a good place to to my first solo trip ☀️🌴
Posted: March 24, 2024I was there last year in September and it was fantastic. Very safe, great places for swimming and sightseeing, and the food was amazing. People were really nice and polite. It was smaller than other islands, so it was easier to explore. I traveled to many places by bus and that was the perfect solution.
Posted: July 24, 2023I found Rhodes to be incredibly expensive, even compared to Santorini and Mykonos. I also got the impression that the island is more geared towards families and older people, rather than a younger audience. However, I loved that there were cats everywhere on the island.
Posted: April 11, 2023Actually I lived here for many years never felt anything of the above. I even leave my car unlocked and my house unlocked as well when I go to sleep. At least in my village it’s as safe as it can be ❤️
