I've been to Norway several times in my life. I've always travelled in a van and felt totally safe. Last time, I went to see the orcas. It's one of the most beautiful memories I have. Norway is a magnificent country with breathtaking nature.

So incredibly beautiful 😍 It was perfect weather so i had the pleasure to see northern lights both nights I was there! Public transport is also pretty good for such a small city :) Be prepared to spend some money tho. Tromsø is no cheap place...
Posted: April 17, 2025Experienced: December, 2024Oslo is a beautiful city ❤️ amazing landscapes from the heart of the city center, also a maritime city 🥰 The same ticket for the public transportation is valid for bus, metro, tram, and also BOATS to the Oslo islands 🙌🏻 ✨Girly-friendly: Super safe for solo travellers 🎀 ✨Slow green city: It is not often to drive private cars in the city centre. Only public transportations, taxis or business cars. ✨Expensive night life: Drinks have high taxes here in Norway so alcohol in general is super expensive ✨Average price for a meal: 20-30€ ✨Water is always FREE in restaurants and bars I’d definetly recommend Oslo to a solo travellers! 🙌🏻 Beautiful landscapes, safe plus Oslo citizens tend to have a good taste in fashion! 🥰✨🙌🏻
Posted: April 17, 2025I went wild camping, since accommodations in Norway are quite expensive. I felt surprisingly safe, would recommend this. However, I always tried to stay out of sight with me tend. Like behind a bush or something like that.
Posted: April 15, 2025Bergen is a small town that is a very convenient city to start your travels into the norwegian mountains. There are a few interesting places to visit like the old wooden church that is easy ro reach by public transport.

Yes, i felt really safe since most of the population were locals and the city is well known for its safety. There were many museums, and galleries, and modern designed buildings except the expensive not that tasty food.

Like everything in Norway, Oslo is pretty calm city, with not a lot of activities especially on winter's time, but it feels very comfortable and safe for female solo traveler. But be prepared for extreme weather and prices:)

This was the best trip I’ve ever done! I went to Lofoten with zero expectations and had nothing planned which was the best desicion. Every day was an adventure. I was there at the beggining of the off season so it wasn’t full of tourists. The budes very running very sporadicly but usually accordning to the time schedule. I also hitch hiked and stayed with people from couchsurfing. Felt very safe throughout the whole trip.
Posted: January 31, 2025Oslo is a vibrant, modern city. I went there in January and mainly was visiting museums, parks and the new library in the city centre. I can recommend Munch museum, especially on Wednesday because it is free :)

I was there for one night, to attend a The Weeknd concert. Felt safe, even at night, but could be because I was travelling with my boyfriend. Really really beautiful nature and landscapes. Loved it, I am planning on coming back some day!

It’s pretty safe in Oslo city center. Some low level crime in some places, especially in rural areas far from the city center. Those are local areas where usually no tourists go to. Avoid being alone at night time in those areas, especially for females who doesn’t want male attention.

I have lived in Oslo for thirteen years, and very few times felt unsafe! As long as you stay by the crowded streets by night or by going home from public transport. I trust police officers. Some guards can be violent at clubs, but rearly and if so, rapport them to someone local. I have experienced sexual harassment, as woman and as queer woman. Uncomfortable, but not violent.

I’m 27. I live in Oslo,Norway and I study nursing. I love to travel but I feel like I haven’t been able to travel much because it’s so expensive. I would love to travel a lot more whenever I get the chance. I love to meet new people when I travel and learn from the locals about the culture and get inside info you can’t get from the internet. I’m mostly busy with school and work atm. Feel free to reach out about whatever.

Hi! I graduated uni last year studying sociology, and want to explore new places, have new experiences and meet new people! I’m hopefully traveling Europe, starting in Slovenia and going up to Norway for May-August 2025 doing a mixture of work away/ wwoofing and staying at hostels. I love nature, growing plants, and art🌱🐌🌼🌈
