In general I find this city very safe. But as a foreigner I get too much attention. Some people are trying to take pictures of me. I don’t have experience with public transport, but Uber is very safe. I personally don’t feel ok with walking alone after 11 pm

Posted: May 30, 2025Mumbai is the city that never sleeps of Asia. My heart got stuck over there. As a woman, you obviously get a lot of attention, a lot of looks. I found the best way to handle it was to not look back, keep walking straight as if you know the way. I never had any problems worse than that.

It's safe for most regions and timings. The downside is the crowd is judgmental on a person's clothing and appearance, you'll get a lot of creepy stares if you outfit is revealing from personal experience

Mumbai is generally safe for women, especially in well-known areas — the city truly never sleeps and always feels alive! 🌆 I have lived here for 15 years now and have never faced any issue whether its late night or evening

The city is busy, some parts more than others. So there’s thoroughfare throughout, you’d find traffic at bust junctions even 2am on some nights! Some parts are sketchy, like most cities, but even then, I’d say it’s relatively safer if you are smart about avoiding those
Posted: September 1, 2025Mumbaii is overall a safe place for women but I can't say that it is 100% safe as anything can happen if you're alone..... Stilll it's quite safe as the city is busy even at night. The city has women only train compartmentss..... However, like any large city, risks exist particularly at night, in isolated places, or late night transport..... Mumbaii offers a mix of strong infrastructure and public presence that makes it safer than most big cities...... buttt exercising caution remains essential.
Posted: August 28, 2025It is pretty safe but still need to adhere to caution, if traveling solo. Would not recommend being too late like after 10 PM just as precautions if you are traveling solo. Better to take autos than cabs.
