Is Tel Aviv-Yafo Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Group travel

I was lucky visiting israel before current events (no political comment here.) Probably one of the nicest places i've been. Not like a typical middle eastern city. Some travellers actually say its middle eastern-california lol. I stayed at jungle jaffa hostel and i wont stay anywhere else if i go again. It was one of the main things that made tel aviv such an experience. Old jaffa is a must see and beach is a real gem. They are at the same place already. Everywhere is walking distance. I didnt use uber even once Because airport is accessible too. Only fault about Tel aviv was it wasnt budget friendly... I ate my meals at hostel (which was included during summer) but 50cl beer was around 10 shekel (2.5€), a cocktail at a cheap bar 20 shekel, breakfast with omelette 50 shekel. Other than that Tel aviv is a living city, techno parties last whole weekend, beach is not crowded but alive, population is young and traveler friendly

Group travel

I felt safe, because I visited my friend who had already lives there for several years. But I’m not sure the feeling would be the same if you visit it by yourself. I was there 5 days and my program was prepared before. I visited Jerusalem in the morning, the sea in afternoon and techno at night. The trip had really tight schedule. It was nice, because we had a car, without it using the local transport it would be impossible. You always can find where to go, because of long history land, full of stories and new impacts. I spent not much money, because I was visiting a friend, that’s why I didn’t need it. But prices are extremely high.

Solo travel

I traveled alone and felt very safe. The market in Carmel was wonderful, I ate delicious falafel there and it is cheaper than in restaurants. Sarona Market was a bit more expensive, but also nice. I stayed in Abraham Hostel and I have very nice memories from there, as they even organized a communal dinner for Shabbat. Additionally, during Shabbat, public transport does not operate and it is really hard to move around the city.

For solo female travelers Tel Aviv is very safe in most neighborhoods. It safe to take public transportation or walk around alone at day and night. Certain neighborhoods in south Tel Aviv can be unpleasant so try not to go alone. But all in all it is a safe city for women. It is important to be alert and aware of your environment in very crowded areas, because due to current climate there is a risk of rocket attacks in the city.

Tel Aviv is very safe. Everyone here is super nice and helpful. No worry about going out in the dark. Sexual assaults, robbing or attacks while walking in the street never happen here. Women can feel very safe here.
