Utrecht is the kind of place Amsterdam would be if there weren't so many tourists - beautiful canals and harbor cellars, a vibrant nightlife, and Miffy's house. I felt very safe there when I went out in the city alone.

Very safe and calm city, lots of students and internationals which makes it very open and friendly. There’s lots of nice cafes and restaurants all around, the city comes to life when the sun is out and people are always spending time outdoors!
Posted: April 25, 2024Utrecht is pretty safe and busy overall. I am often outside around midnight and dont feel like it is very dangerous. Though i feel like my tall-ness and demeanor might also help avoid any problems. The city center can still be pretty busy at night with a lot of people going out. Around daytime i have very little worries about safety, most people are respectful and go about their own way. Though as with every city ever, things can happen and I advise to just generally be cautious, don’t look like a lost tourist and keep an eye on your stuff.

Felt good! Only problem I had was a date that stood me up... Luckily it's a vibrant city. Small, but fun! I spent a lot of time in the central mall near the station, honestly not a bad decision. They have great food hubs!

Hi! I am a (mostly) solo traveller looking for an authentic experience in any country I visit. Big fan of the outdoors but enjoy sleepy surfer towns and nightlife just as much. Favorite kitchen: Mexican.
