How safe is Bangalore for solo female travelers?

Group travel

Actually, India is not the safest space especially for girls. - Because of the culture it is not so common for a girl to wear a short dress (don’t open shoulders and knees) - Also, it has awful traffic and it is dangerous to cross the road sometimes so do it carefully - The food is spicy so take some pills with you if you don’t used to spicy food

Bangalore is very safe for female travellers. You can safely book a cab through namma yatri or female airport taxis to the city. The area where I live gets silent around 9:00pm but there is always police patrolling around.

It is very safe whether it's day or night. Women can walk freely at any hour of the day without anyone bothering. People are generally friendly and helpful. There is little communication gap but it doesn't create much problem for outsiders.

I live near JP Nagar so I find it safe but sometimes taking late night Auto doesn’t feel very safe as a woman so I would prefer for getting home before it’s 1030. I have also been near Ira Nagar for a few months and I prefer the same for Indra Nagar as well because I don’t find it hundred percent safe even neo metros.  so I have a few Women cab and taxi driver numbers. In case of some planned trip I would prefer that

Hi Everyone Thanks for checking out my profile. I am based in Bangalore and I stay around Yelahanka in North Bangalore (20 mins from KIA). I would love to host solo travellers at my home and show you around the biodiversity and resturants nearby. Feel free to ping me if you are in transit and have a long layover or just want to chill.
