How safe is India for solo female travelers?
Kinnaur, Family travel
Kinnaur is a beautiful place in the mountains of Himachal. You see the great snow-capped Kinner Kailash and the beautiful trees and water streams around. People are extremely sweet and helpful. Must visit for a peaceful travel.

As my hometown, I can positively recommend you to explore Pune as it’s safe for tourists. Do visit Koregaon Park if you want to do cafe hunting. But if you are into exploring authentic side of Pune then visit central Pune with historical places. Thank you…..

Jispa, Group travel
Amazing white Huge mountains and I stated in Dome shaped rooms near Jispa valley in freezing -20degree temp. It was one of the most beautiful scenery I have enjoyed in my life...the temp was dropping every single second and we were happy to see snowfall the entire night.

Himachal Pradesh, Couple travel
We went to jhibhi in Himachal Pradesh and that place is peaceful and quiet and try not to go on long weekends as roads are small and a long traffic jam awaits. You can do so many things there like cafe hopping and go to treks

Delhi, Solo travel
I was travelling there alone, but I was meeting up with a male friend, who are from Delhi. I had an amazing time there, truly a great and lively city with AMAZING food! I lived in Greater Kailash, which is a more posh area, so that was pretty safe. But going to Old Dilli and Sangam Vihar felt way more unsafe, a lot of staring and everything. Even my friend was hesitant to take me there, because he knew it was unsafe. Bring a scarf for your hair, if you’re going to old dilli, and for your own...

Kalimpong, Solo travel
North Bengal’s nature reserves are worth visiting over and over again. If you love exploring off-beat places then this is a hidden cave with treasures…I would recommend going in off-season to enjoy nature’s beauty in its truest form. I took a bus from Kolkata to Siliguri. From there I booked a cab to these places, you can get shared cabs as well from Siliguri to Kalimpong. I did a 4 day trip in 2 circuits, Kalimpong to Lolegaon including Ramdhura, Dablin and the scenic views. The second...

Agra, Solo travel
The beauty of Taj is unprecedented. The intensity of the love story around the construction of this buiding creates on you an unique reset. Take a minute to soak the beauty of Taj. Preferably with your loved one.

India, Solo travel
I consider India my second home. ❤️ I love this country so much. I’ve been there 6 or 7 times already, and I never get tired of going back. Of course, every country has its good and bad sides, but I truly believe that India is a place everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. Personally, this country has completely captivated me. There is something about its culture, energy, colors, people, and spirituality that keeps drawing me back. ❤️🇮🇳 India has a very special place...

Kalga, Solo travel
Almost opened up a bakery here. I went hiking, made friends, went into a very calm state of mind while watching the sunset and was very happy! It’s not easy to get to this place, but if you ever get the chance, it’s worth it!

Manali, Solo travel
I normally travel solo like I kinda book an experience where solo traveller travel in a group and the iternery is fixed . For Manali I travelled with zo trips . And it was really good experience. But make sure that you look out for traffic, it gonna be one long one if you get stuck in traffic. There is a park in Maal road , near the monestry, that park is calm and peaceful . So if you get tired of the noisy streets you can go there and chill.

I've walked around at night, bangalore is pretty safe. just sometimes the auto drivers drive a little fast during late night travel but fortunately i've not been part of any bad incidents around the city.

My experience regarding safety living in bangalore has been fortunate. I have had no unfortunate encounters that have left a pressing impression. Differently be vigilant and careful whether it be during the day or night. Choose your mode of transport wisely

It is safe here in day but avoid highly crowded area alone. There is very less of night life here. Other than a few particular spots the city mostly sleeps by 10pm and only man roam around i streets.

Eluru
Eluru is a small town with alot of people. It can be visited in 1 or 2 days. It's completely safe on day time but as for night time it's better to avoid but want to go at night time choose a crowded place to go

It's a bustling place, you better be careful with your belongings. It's famously known as chor bazar, so if you know you know! Better be on the lookout, especially for your purse! Rest is cool I guess.

Quite safe for women in general and otherwise too. Won’t recommend travelling much at night, better to have a local with you because foreigners aren’t very common here. One of the safer cities in India
