I visited Utrecht several times already. Alone, with friends, with my dog and without my dog. I have a small dog and she is easily stressed when too much is going on. Around the central station it's busy. But the mall there is amazing! You can shop there like a queen! ποΈ You can also see the "parking garage" for the bicycles when you go there! Definitely worth a visit. π² I am vegan so I sometimes have trouble finding something to eat, but Utrecht did great with food. Hot Pot at "Momofugu" can be vegan and it tastes amazing. Also when you are in the area of Utrecht you may take a walk there. A few shops, train and bus station close by too! In another area you can see the canals! Feels like Amsterdam but less busy! The "Vegetalian" is a restaurant I can recommend too! They offer vegan, gluten free and more! π Overall I would say that with and without people around me I felt safe. The parking garage and parking in general is expensive, still less than Amsterdam tho!! Few areas I would avoid, if its night time, but at day time? I wouldn't have a problem going anywhere in Utrecht!

Hiii, I went to the Hague in the Netherlands. I went to see a friend who told me the Hague wasn't that safe... I felt okay and didn't have any problems. The beach there is nice, you can surf sometimes:)
Posted: May 19, 2025Experienced: March, 2025Very safe, felt okay to walk home at night even as two women. The food and activities were quite expensive, so we made use of the many supermarkets and free/cheap activities such as bike riding, picnicing, walking around the canals The night life is great but do your research- there are plenty of tourist traps
Posted: May 15, 2025I felt pretty safe in Amsterdam and I stayed at a low budget hostel, so that's a big plus. I visited the city, the museums and the parks. It's a big city so i walked a lot. The food was very tasty. A little expensive, tho, for my bugdet, but i can understand it. Overall, it's a fabulous city, with a unique vibe and extremely open people

We felt very safe. There is very minimal catcalling, I was quite surprised by that. Men don't bother you at all, in fact they're quite respectful. The red light district museum is so interesting, definitely recommend that. The cruises look good but we weren't able to attend as we got lost. There is so much to see, I'd recommend hiring a bike as its the main form of transport, otherwise it's a LOT of walking.

Hy village is so safe, I can leave my front door open and no one will come in β in fact, someone might even close it for me. Itβs peaceful, quiet, and the kind of place where people still greet each other in the street.
