Is Oslo safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

As a solo traveller and a student, my budget was really low but fortunately I got a host , she was wonderful and she made me feel at home. I explored Oslo and the next day I went to Hamar. It was beautiful. I was so lucky to see Northern lights too🌸✨

Oslo was a very nice destination for a female solo traveler, for 3 days. I enjoyed the culture and the people, I felt safe during day and night times. I would recommend to stay at least 2 days to enjoy the city and the night life. I loved so much the fine art museum, and the beautiful streets. Norwegian are very friendly and welcoming.

I felt super safe in fact my Airbnb host always left his front door open and unlocked and I felt absolutely safe at all times. I went to loads of museums and enjoyed the art and culture a lot. If you like paintings and art it's the best place. I recommend the Natural History museum in town it's amazing you can spend ages there. I also recommend taking the water taxi and going to the fjords. Also Vigeland park is a must see. It rains a lot in the summer so waterproof clothes would be good. Food is fine, expensive and nothing too special but it's good food. I would say look for traditional stuff. Fish and the brown cheese.

I felt very safe. The city was amazing. It's simultaneously very peaceful and vivid. I enjoyed walking around very much, there are so many attractions- museums, parks, botanical gardens. The fjord looks fantastic.

I actually got stuck there for two days as I was trying to fly home. But I didn’t mind because I got to explore Oslo. I ended up sleeping at the airport and exploring the city during the day. The bus system was easy, the town was clean, and it was easy to communicate in English. I didn’t go out at night, so I’m not sure how safe the nightlife is.

Oslo is a very safe and walkable city. people are friendly, public transport works well, and it feels comfortable to move around even at night. Though like most places, the central station area can feel a bit rough at night.

I have been living here one year and going out alone sometimes and using public transportation, walked around in dark. I haven’t experienced any criminal behaviour myself and feel quite safe. I would be more alert in some areas like Grønland, Tøyen and area around Oslo S.

As a local, it feels very safe. Never had any issues walking around alone after dark. I think the worst thing you could encounter as a tourist is pickpockets, but none of my friends who've visited or live here have experienced this.

It’s one of the safest big cities i would say, but like all big cities there’s crime. Unlike crimes like murder or being assaulted, getting your bike stolen is one of the most common crimes here. Avoid some places at night though

Oslo is safe<3 You can always reach out to the people around you, and the police is always there to help. Try not to be around the central station at night, cause that’s often where all the addicts and homeless people are- however if you are friendly to them and respect them- they will do the same to you!
