Belgrade, Family travel
Belgrade is very underrated. Half of my family lives there and I go twice a year. Summer is great but can get quite hot. Winter is nice too but be prepared for kitschy decorations. The public transport is free, the food is great and the night life is fantastic-what more do you want :)

A country that demands complete tranquility with its rich culture and calm people. A nation that will not leave you hungry, a nation that is as good as Europe in terms of cuisine. A country to go to :)

During my stay at Belgrade I felt safe. I met really kind and interesting people. Serbs love dogs, I saw them everywhere. Public transport is free now, so we drove everywhere. I slept at Different Belgrade camping, about 15 km from the city centre. If you're vegan like me, you can easily find Asian vegan options.

I felt safe walking even at night as a woman. There were many young women who were around my age, on a walk with their friends, pets etc at night and at parks. The cuisine is usually a mix of Ottoman and Italian, not very diverse as a Turkish person. The people were usually kind! My wallet got stolen at Trg Slavija Mc Donald’s tho, I don’t recommend wearing backpacks. The city is small, walkable distance.

Belgrade is very safe for a solo female traveler. I also visited parts of the city outside the touristic city center and they felt very safe as well (Novi Beograd, Zemun). Food is very cheap and going to the restaurant is a great experience both for the food quality and the welcoming atmosphere. I would recommend if you are interested in history and architecture.

Belgrade is a great city. I've been there twice. There are activities to do. There are fun places. The street is very lively. It's safe enough. There are historical sites and museums to visit. I highly recommend it. I think spring is the best season

Belgrade is a marvellous place! On the one hand you have brutalist yugoslavic achitecture and on the other hand you can find ottoman and other traces of the profound history of the city. Me and my female friend stayed ad a save campground at a margin of Zemu. Every morning we took the bus for 50ct we could pay via App to downtown. It took us 30 min to get there. The main attractions were the Museum of Yugoslavia and the coffee shops downtown. Another highlight was the the open air cinema "Novi...

It was a safe city. The food was very delicious and reasonably priced. I was able to take night walks without any problems. It is a small city and you can visit many places on foot. A woman can easily wander around alone.

I felt safe. I had a fun holiday, the prices for food and drinks were affordable. Taxi was cheap, I usually walked and occasionally took a taxi. It is better to stay in the center. Marks Place was very nice. I recommend for food

We stayed in a airbnb which was really cozy and nice but had enormous stairs while being on the 5th floor. Belgrade is a very budget friendly city and is also quite beautiful. We were out in the night as a group of 4 girls and didn’t experience any problems except for one catcalling but we were right in the center so I don’t know about the rural areas. The nightlife there is very much alive so that’s another reason for how safe it is there are people around at 3am. As for the nightclubs most of...

I feel completely safe in Belgrade. You can walk alone here even late at night, which I certainly don't recommend, but some places are simply stunning at night. Hotels and hostels have women-only rooms and dorms, and the staff and guests are polite and tolerant.

Belgrade is a very safe city. No need to worry. You can go where you want. There is no reason to be worried especially girls. Just be smart and stay safe. Hang out with other people and have fun. No worries! :)

It’s a safe place, though as everywhere sometimes we have issues. But from my personal experience women are respected here and I didn’t have any danger coming from men for all the years I’ve lived here

Novi Sad is a very safe city. Lived here for 10 years, walked around during the day and also night, no problem. Especially in the city center, there are usually people around (that is a good thing). City don't really have any specific unsafe areas.

Belgrade is popular touristic destination in Europe, known by it's night life and urban culture. It is big and crowded, but absolutely safe. I would mention the most important thing - people are open and communicative (everybody speaks english) and ready to help any time in any situation.

I would say it's almost perfectly safe. We don't have pickpockets like the rest of the Europe. And I remember going back home alone around 1pm when I was like 14 yo, and I felt safe. I live 40mins walking from the city center, but it's still ok.

About me
Just a girl sick of her hometown with big dreams of travelling the world with or without company I learned to never wait for anyone cause if I do, all the chances will go right in front of my face With attending Medical High-school I became scared that i would live or should I say work my life in the hospital and never see anything cause i would've been stuck at my shifts Don't get me wrong, thats a nice job, but I just don't see myself doing it and spending 40 years of a wonderful live we should all live working at hospital I like to feel free and have my freedom, that's probably why horses are my fav animals and I think it says a lot about people When I was little, I dreamt of having a ranch with looooots of animals At the moment, I'm saving cash for traveling from my lunch money and I'm thankful for my parents teaching me how to save it when I was younger and I dont even see it as a sacrifice, cause someones gonna eat a pizza slice while soon enough I'll be eating it in Italy Selective buget hahaha Idk what else to tell you, if you have questions feel free to dm me Wishing you a good day ♡♡
