Poland is in my opinion very safe country. Gdansh is beautiful city full of galleries, pubs, caffes and people there mind their own business. I had no problem with anything. Olny there are no shops open after 8pm, which i am not used to, but if you buy food for breakfast during the day, you are safe;)
Posted: April 2, 2024I really liked Gdansk. I didn't have a great desire to visit, but I found incredibly cheap flights. Visiting this place is relatively cheap, it has beautiful architecture and there is a beach about 20 minutes away by taxi and 30 minutes by train. I visited this place alone and felt completely safe.
Posted: December 16, 2023I spent 3 wonderful days in Gdansk and I highly recommend it. Fantastic city. I had a great walk around the city. The beach and promenade were also charming. The transportation there was very safe and easy to use.
Posted: July 29, 2023I spent a week in Gdansk / Sopot / Gdynia in July. I walked around Gdansk in the middle of the night because it was very hot during the day. I took the local suburban train late with no issues. I didn't encounter any thieves. I would highly recommend learning the basics of the Polish language. I did this before my trip and it was necessary because most people outside the service sector didn't speak English or spoke very little. Initially, I had some trouble reading the timetables and the ticket system for the trains and trams. I was never harassed by scary men and I felt exceptionally safe.
Posted: April 9, 2023Things to do: - Neptune's Fountain - Long Market - Town Hall - Golden Gate Safety: Extremely safe and super friendly for solo travelers. Recommendations: Gdansk is beautiful and it is one of my absolute favorite cities.
Posted: September 17, 2022To Do: - Visit the Museum of the Second World War - Take a ride on the Black Pearl - Visit Westerplatte - Explore the Old Town Safety: This is a safe place to travel. Recommendations: Gdansk is charming, but quite small, so I wouldn't spend more than 2 days there.
Posted: September 10, 2022To Do: - Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Gdańsk - Museum of the Second World War - Neptune's Fountain - European Solidarity Centre - Pier in Sopot - Mariacka Street - Amber Museum - Gdańsk Museum Safety: As a woman traveling alone, I always felt safe. Recommendations: Gdańsk is amazing, probably my favorite city in Poland. There is a lot to do there if you are interested in history.

After one year living in Gdańsk I can say that it is very safe I am always going alone to the train or bus station at 3 or 4am not dangerous at all French people who are living here say that it is safer than Paris

Gdańsk feels Safe. I have never experienced something dangerous here, i don't feel fully free to walk around at night everywhere, but It comes from my general worry about walking as a woman at night in every city

This was my first solo travel in the age of 18. I booked an very cheap hostel with single room but shared bathroom. The room was really ok but the bathroom stinked so much :D Mostly I experienced nature. My favorite activity was to walking by the see with my foot in the water ale looking into sea.
Posted: January 25, 2024Gdansk is such a charming place. Walking around downtown, all the colorful houses look adorable. There is the Long Market, the main pedestrian street with cafes, shops, and fountains. I went to the World War II museum, but it was a bit overwhelming for me. I recommend trying Pierogarnia Stary Młyn for good, traditional pierogi.

Hello, my name is Justyna, I'm Polish and I live in Gdańsk 🙂 I can speak English. What's more, few months ago I started to learn Italian. I'm friendly, easygoing and sociable person. I work in advertising agency as an account manager. I travel once in 3-4 months but would love to do more. My last trips were to Rome, Venezia, Paris and Emirates. I plan to visit Paris once again next month from 10th till 13th April totally on my own to make my dreams come true. I was in Paris last year but after that decided to get back to Monmartre. As a fashion lover I'd love to visit Galerie Dior and take part in a fashion show at Galerie LaFayette. As for Montmartre, I'd love to catch again those romantic atmosphere of art. And at the end of my trip I'm going to visit Roland Garros stadium.
