In Slovenia, I felt safe at daytime. I avoided staying out late since I was not travelling woth a group or many people who would ensure a bit more safety from other people. So Imeach day I went someplace different, Ljubljana is very well connected and low budget friendly. I stayed at a room with a shared bathroom and kitchen there. It was okay, I paid very little so I basically got more than the money's worth. There are many places to visit, city and nature, but also a great combination of both. It was a great experience, the natives are open minded and will help you out. Maybe you'll find new friends! =D I definitely recommend gping there.

They also have a little bit Coast and great seas for summer to go swimming. Also theyer icecream is great and everything is inexpensive in comperison to the moderate Europe
Posted: April 11, 2025Experienced: July, 2024Lake Bled is a fantastic destination for nature lovers. The hikes here are stunning, the hostels are really nice and overall if you want a quiet nature experience (in the city there isnt much to do) its the place to go

heyy travel ladies, i visited my friend Aneta in Ljubljana for a week. we also visited Triglav, which had been on my bucket list for a very long time. we went hiking even when the weather was bad and i recommend it. nature is beautiful. what i recommend the most is planina Zajamniki, which is hidden gem for me.
Posted: February 28, 2025Experienced: February, 2025Me and my friends travelled around in a van. I had the best experience, Slovenia is so beautiful! The prices are cheaper compared to Germany and the Netherlands. I felt overall very safe there. The Slovenian people are very kind and love to help you.
Posted: February 19, 2025Experienced: February, 2025We felt really safe. We stayed each day in a different accommodation and without fail everyone was very nice and helpful. I recommend checking out the capital, it's really charming and easy to check out as it is pretty small compared to other European capitals. And of course there's Bled, which is breathtaking. I highly recommend 3-4 days in the area of the national park, there's just so many beautiful things to see and so many fun things to do. Piran is another beauty of Slovenia I wouldn't mind visiting again! As for transportation, each time I visited the country it was always by car. It is very easy to get around by cars. I'd however recommend planning beforehand and booking the accomodations in advance. It was hard to find something for the same night especially around the national park area.
Posted: September 11, 2024Experienced: June, 2022I spend an amazing week in Ljubljana, Slovenia with my friends. We explored the city, went to some bars, climbed to the castle. The atmosphere in the city is really cozy, it feels like a smaller version of Vienna:) People are super friendly, almost everyone knows English. I felt rather safe but I think it was also because I was never alone. So that might depend on if you're a solo traveler. Overall I really enjoyed the trip and definitely recommend visiting Ljubljana!

Slovenia was such a friendly place where even in the remote location we stayed which was 1600 metre up the mountain I felt safe. Local attractions such as the Savica waterfall was majestic and a good little hike to see it. I tried paragliding,, visited Lake bohinj and Lake Bled (my favourite). Stunning views and lots of excellent restaurants to suit varied tastes. The whole trip including accommodation, flights, food, trips, excursions and hire car was £3400.

I travelled there alone and it was really amazing ! It is a very crowded place in the summer but my stay still was relaxing and peacefull. I stayed at Pr Močn wich is a really small hostel that I really recommend. It's cheap, really close to the lake and it feels like home. I met so many nice people there ! The main attraction is the lake where you can do kayak, stand up paddle, a boat tour... You can go on the little island in the middle of the lake, where you can find a little church to visit and a really nice place to get ice cream. There are also a lot of hiking trail around there. So if you love nature and calm it's an amazing place to go !

Slovenia is by far one of the safest countries, especially for solo female travelers. Reason; well, basically barely anyone around and people leave each other alone, but will help you when you ask. I visited Ljubljana and went to an abandoned hotel, which was super cool. Then I went to Kranj, stayed in a hostel with view on nature and visited Lake bled!! You can walk through cities, but if you wanna visit other towns you should use Flixbus, Train or Arriva Bus. Super underrated country, nature was 10/10 and it is cheap

Ljubljana is a very tame place, mostly folks at night are either chilling outside clubs or walking from one to the next, or they are rushing to their morning jobs. There are no no-go zones like in some bigger cities, and in general its pretty quiet at night.
Posted: April 22, 2025It is a small city and feels very safe. Maybe when you are alone at night as a woman it can feel a bit scary in some parts of the city, but overall it has a very safe vibe. Especially the centre I am never worried about something happening to me.

Slovenian by passport, born and grew up in Germany and Slovenia, then moved to Japan alone when I was 21. Lived there for 5 years, then returned to Europe just to work as an international artist manager for 6 years circling the planet. Last few adventures were living about a good year in the north of Sweden and Norway working with sled dogs and sailing on catamarans in the Caribbeans in between.
