Solo travel
Kochi is a very safe city in Kerala, India. Mind you, it’s still India, so normal caution is advised when travelling alone as a woman, but overall I felt very safe. People are kind, welcoming and very curious to learn about a world where women can freely travel by themselves. I made excellent friends who I am still in touch with today.

O decided to do a trip with my mum and aunt. So, this was a special bond trip with these two ladies. Our tour guide was such a patient man- with three ladies and shopping😄. We visited Munnar, Thekeddy, Allepey and we didn't feel unsafe at all. People there have got higher literacy rate and their airport is one of the first airports which is powered by solar panels! Food, decadent and delicious..Very natural. Love the vibes of this state in India .

Kochi was amazing. I was here during monsoon season so most days were rainy, however I was able to explore a lot within the short period of time where the rain stopped. I ended up getting a guided tour which helped a lot as I feel without it, I would have missed some of the little things. Food was great, the people are friendly, and just an overall beautiful place

Kochi is generally safe for solo female travellers. Always welcoming everyone. People are chill and nice. And lot of places you can safely travel and explore. Also transportation is very safe and available
Posted: September 29, 2025Kochi is really safe comparing to other cities. As it is based on the comparison, i wouldn't say that it is entirely safe. Kochi have to go a long way for providing full safety. But still I am able to walk at night at a moderate level of freeness
Posted: July 15, 2025Kochi is actually safe if you know how where to go and where not to or who to talk to and who you should stay away from. If you are looking to visit kochi, I assure you its fun and safe, although there are limitations to it like any other place
Posted: December 30, 2024Kochi could be the most safest in kerala. The people are kind and very attentive. If you are a foreigner there is a high chance locals will ask for higher prices for every types of services. But considering overall safety it is pretty good
