In my experience lisbon was pretty safe even tho they were times people will just offer you drugs even in day time. At night there are some places i would avoid like pink street, not good for a solo female but other than that it’s great
Posted: May 31, 2026Was great experience. The weather, foods, peoples and its unique environment is really something that I really like about it. I really enjoy my vacation there and hope to visit this city or maybe other cities in the future
Posted: May 29, 2026safe, super cool architecture, lots of fun activities there and kind people. My only complaint was the food was quite bland for my liking. May be a little bit sketchy at night so I wouldn’t go out by yourself
Posted: May 9, 2026Lisbon is one of the most gorgeous and unique cities that I've been to so far! In the summer it can get very crowded so months like May/September/October are ideal while it's still super sunny. It's overall cheap when it comes to food and shopping and the locals are very friendly. If you don't mind the mild workout you'll have to do beacause of the heels I would 100% recommended for a fun girls trip!!

Overall very safe. People generally don't bother me or steal, but as always, be cautious and also it depends where you go. I don't spend time in the touristy areas and I walk everywhere. I have only felt unsafe a handful of times, but as always, stay sharp.
Posted: May 21, 2026Feels ok so far! One area had a lot of men standing around and honestly I prefer men when they are in the company of women but no one hassled me at all. I’ve only been here 1 day though so can’t say for sure.
Posted: May 17, 2026There is opportunist people in Lisbon, so be very aware of your belongings. Specially in public transportation. Be also careful with people trying to sell you not legal stuff, careful with your drink in a bar.

Lisbon is extremely safe! I've never had an issue, whether it's the middle of the day or night. I even walk my dog at 2 or 3 am, when necessary. I am careful at Cais Sodré, but nothing that any person wouldn't be aware of.

Under deconstruction. Will be sweeter when we are all free. Almost never say no to a good glass of wine or conversation. Queer. Free Palestine. IG @_mariamoon__
