Delhi is a historical place with so many beautiful monuments. The food here is the best in India. But the safety is not great, you can't go out at night even with friends, and hate the pollution here.

Delhi is beautiful location. Culturally rich. Many historical spaces. But safety i still don't know. I am very much afraid to take public transport. Metro is nice and competely safe. But bus and cabs i am still afraid
Posted: May 1, 2025Experienced: April, 2025I went many years back when I was in 11th grade and didn't feel very safe cause even when I was inside a car men were staring at me which made me feel uncomfortable even though I was with my parents

Delhi is not a safe place for solo travelling women. I would advise them to travel along with a local or with a male friend. Walking around the streets women can experience cat calling so I would recommend Uber or Taxi for longer distances.
Posted: February 14, 2026Not very safe at night...would be better to travel during day time. There are some gangs in underdeveloped areas like Okhla Vihar..Some places like Noida are safer though, Indirapuram is a good locality..good nightlife and Habitat Centre has pretty good resteraunts and bars as well
Posted: February 9, 2026there are localities in south and central delhi that are very safe to throughout the day and night but anywhere else you should be a bit careful to be out after sunset. especially west and north delhi.
Posted: October 16, 2025Not safe at all especially not for us girls honestly I think that nobody should travel alone in this city! Always have pepper spray with u at all times and its advised to avoid staying out late but the area in delhi ncr is fairly better as the night life of noida and gurgaon is smthn u can look forward too! Again avoid isolated areas at all times and avoid talking to strangers too!
