Is Tzaneen safe for solo female travelers?

Tzaneen is a relatively safe town as compared to several other locations in South Africa. As a solo female traveler, you may feel secure during the daylight hours when traveling to tourist areas, town centers, or public spaces where there are likely to be other people around. However, like many places, it is recommended to avoid walking alone at night or in secluded locations. Occasional reports of petty crime such as pickpocketing do exist, so remaining alert and cautious about personal belongings is important. Engaging with local knowledgeable guides for travelling outside built-up areas can enhance safety.

How safe is Tzaneen for women?

It's a small little town but would rate the crime similar to big cities. No worries about anyone stealing your things or being mugged but would not walk in town alone at night. Daytime is perfectly fine to do whatever. I have never experienced crime here before...
