My first solo experience! Wonderful! I always felt safe, and never experienced any bad/annoying/disturbing situation. Beautiful city to walk and discover. People are so lovely and kind. During the winter is magic.

I live in Vienna and did a day trip to Bratislava recently. I loved the city! My group and I went straight to Old Town and spent our entire day there. We saw some of the more popular spots, like St Michael’s Gate, and then we went to the museum in the Old Town Hall. The museum had so many items on display, and we climbed to the top to get a view beautiful view of the city! The cost of the museum was €8 per person, but they also offer a lot of discounts (student, senior, etc) that bring the cost...

I took part in a group trip in the beautiful mountains in Slovakia. It was really worth it! I swam through the Dunajec River, which was a great experience, even tho my arms were hurting after. Would recommend everyone!

A small city, good for a city break. One day was enough for me to see the sights. In my opinion, it's safe, but at stations, stops, and on buses, I was sometimes approached by homeless people. When they heard I didn't speak their language, they left me alone. Great local wine.

It is pretty safe in compared to other capital cities. I would advise to not visit Vrakuňa or Petržalka alone after dark but as long as you stay in popular areas such as Old town, you should not be in danger.

Bratislava is very safe, even at night, low crime. Only some Roma people could be annoying, but maximum they can screen something or look. In the center at night drunk people can also be noisy or creepy. Police is operating good in terms of safety

I will say this city is pretty safe if don't make trable at your own. Obviously it's more dangerous at night, but at my experience there are literally no one at night in this city. I don't had any serious and unsafe situations yet

Generally very safe, just be careful as you should always mainly during the night. Use public transport and if possible sit near driver. You may encounter homeless people but they are harmless mostly ask you for some change.

About me
Hi ♡ My name is Katarina and I'm 19, so my solo traveling era just started and that's the reason I'm here:D I'm really spontaneous person, I enjoy traveling, exploring new places and making extraordinary memories. I love being in nature, going on hikes, discovering beautiful places, and visiting historical sites. I also enjoy cooking, reading, and talking about all kinds of things. I love meeting new people and learning about their lives and experiences, even though it can be challenging because I'm quite introverted. I'm always happy to have a deep conversation, but I also appreciate simple moments, I enjoy making people laugh, being a little silly, and having fun together. ♡
