Maastricht was wonderful - super cute old town, cute university. There is a church that has been completely converted into a bookshop, I can totally recommend it! Sitting by the river in the evening is also great, there are lots of young open-minded people in the city. Everything is within walking distance - I didn't stay there but the prices for food were like in the surrounding countries.
Posted: May 4, 2025Experienced: March, 2025I went on a girls trip with three friends to Maastricht. One of my friends studies there so being with a local helped me feel safe in the city but the city is definitely safe without a local to help! It's a university city so there are students milling about at all hours of the day and night, so as three girls walking home from the bar at 2am, we did not feel nervous at all.

I always feel safe walking at night, the only place which is a bit worrying at night is Markt (kind of city centre), however at night there’s always a police there so it makes it feel safer and under control.
