Is Brasov safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

Little city, very nice to walk around. I stayed in a hostel and met a lot of people, Many of them romanians. I stayed a week. Very nice nightlife, i felt super-safe and meet a lot of friendly people. I felt at home.

Group travel

Brasov was absolutely amazing, the perfect encapsulation of both the natural beauty and fascinating cultural history of Romania. It was safe, welcoming and relatively inexpensive with excellent food. Tip tip - don't miss the Piatra Craiului national park.

I love Brasov for a city break. Its a city full of nature and it’s just what you need to have a relaxing time. You can also hike there to peak Tâmpa. It is an easy hike but if you go in the winter you should have winter shoes because it’s slippery. Very fresh air, very beautiful views. The is amazing. I recommend “ Dei Frati” restaurant they have amazing pasta but you need a reservation as it’s almost always full. You can take the bus from there and go to Poiana Brasov for skiing. It’s a cheap drive like 1 euro . Have fun!!

Group travel

In Romania, we were staying in Bucharest with my volunteer colleagues but we did day trips to Brasov several times because we like it a lot. Instead of sitting at the restaurant at the square we chose to go around and find smaller places which we end up liking. I don’t remember the names but I also suggest you to do so to escape from the expensive prices. Before going to Brasov you can also check if there’s any events going on because there’s something going on in most of the time there. As activities, you should go the “Dracula’s Castle” of course but transport to there is a bit tricky if you’re traveling in a group it would be the best to take Bolt/Uber. I haven’t tried it but the cable car 🚠 also seemed cool and my friends said they enjoyed it. Also don’t forget to check AirBnb for accommodation we stayed in one and it was in this quiet neighborhood out of the center which was so nice. It’d be so good for a winter vacation. Overall, Brasov seems to be very isolated and small which is its charm. Local people are so nice you can just come up to them and talk most of them speak good English.

Brașov is a very safe city. Nobody steals anything here. I have been living here for 3 months as an international student, and I also live in a dorm. It is a city full of internationals, and we have many people speaking English.

It is a lovely city with beautiful views and new things to try, very clean air. The nature is very pretty and clean and the weather is good usually, lovely to go to the mountains here and snowboard or ski

It s one of the safest cities in Romania here violent crime is very rare and clustered around the rougher neighborhoods which are a lot better than rough neighborhoods abroad imo idk u don t have to worry about this when u come here

Small time charm comes with overall safety and the police is reliable. However, there is catcalling and mild level of harassment coming from Romanian men, potentially pickpockets in crowded areas and on public transport. Overall, it is one of the safest Romanian towns and would recommend common sense and being aware of your surroundings, but no need to proactively worry about safety.

Brasov is a safe place for tourists and locals. The people here are very kind. Public transport is great, we have electrical buses and the ticket can be paid using your card. Around the city you will find people that speak english pretty good.
