It was ok I went for a concert Although I've been there several times and know how to move around, everything is simple, I always feel in a foreign there .. I'm Portuguese 🤷♀️ My family is from a few towns over ... But Lisbon always feels like a different planet ..
Posted: December 7, 2025Experienced: November, 2025Honestly it was one of the best cities I visited in Europe. I really fell in love with it and I hope to go again soon. I really liked the experience. People were really nice. The food was really good and not so expensive and the activities were really good, so I really recommend

I went to Lisbon about 2 years ago to spend a week there as my first solo trip and I sincerely believe that it was a wonderful City to take a leap of faith as it was pretty safe and a very beautiful city too. I also liked the food and visiting the different castles around the ciry
Posted: November 15, 2025Experienced: August, 2023It was mostly safe I stayed for 14 days at a kind of rental, was like 800 Food was really great, especially seafood. The city is very charming and I recommend exploring as much as you can And visiting Sintra is a must I loved ice cream at Santını

I feel safe in Lisbon when walking around during daytime, It is a lovely city with lovely people. When going out at night, I would take some caution: walk busier or light up streets home or take a cab, watch my drinks. I went home by myself in late evenings when I lived in Lisbon years ago and felt safe most of the time. This time I was travelling with my child, so no late evenings and overall very safe feeling.

during the day it’s pretty safe but at night it’s not safe especially if you’re a lady. in the center of the city there’s a lot of people trying to sell you drugs or trying to steal your phones and wallets

I feel really safe than I walk alone at night in campo pequeno or in the downtown. It is always better to keep your belongings with you than u are in metro or in some touristic places , but Lisbon is still quite safe

I feel like Lisbon is a city that’s overall safe. We should always watch out for our bags/ phone, cause there are surely a lot of pickpockets. Portuguese people are extremely friendly and they will welcome you very well - usually with no second intentions!! As a woman, I feel safer here than in my home country ( Brazil ) although when people learn that I’m not Portuguese I feel a switch on their in their intentions/ actions. However, this is definitely better here than in the rest of Europe.

Lisbon feels safe with other people, but as white young woman with blie eyes, you get a lot of comments walking alone. But if you ignore the men with confidence you will be fine. Feel confident in yourself men are afraid of you. Keep an eye on your things and you will not get robbed
Posted: August 31, 2025Lisbon is a safe city overall. You can enjoy the night without problems, but is always necessary to pay attention to pickpockets (they are not Portuguese, they travel here from other countries). You can party with no problems.

I'm a digital nomad. This is my first trip to Europe. I'm from Brazil. I like good conversations, but I prefer to meet in real life. How about meeting up, having a drink and a chat? I like sunsets on the beach, gastronomic experiences and cultural activities. I'm easy to please and always up for new adventures. A few things about me: I'm a vegetarian. I traveled for 11 months in the northeast of Brazil.
