My gf and I felt very safe as a lesbian couple traveling Barcelona. The local homosexual scene is very big and welcoming, we found some lesbian party completely by accident and had a wonderful time there. The food was amazing and prices were OK. Overall it was a wonderful experience. 🩷
Posted: April 21, 2025I visited Barcelona in July 2024 and had a great time. I felt safe throughout my stay. I went swimming and visited the stunning Sagrada Família, which is definitely worth seeing. Most of my time was spent shopping and exploring the vibrant streets. The summer weather was hot but perfect for enjoying the city. I stayed near Plaça de Catalunya, which made it easy to get around using the metro. I recommend checking out local markets like La Boqueria and grabbing some tapas. Overall, a fun and relaxed trip—I’d definitely go back!
Posted: April 20, 2025Overall I felt safe in the city. There were a lot if things to do and I must say I was never bored being there for a little more than a week. I really recommend going to the Sagrada Familia(buy your tickets in advance) and Park Güell (also buy your tickets in advance) We did find some good spots to eat wich dont really cost much. Bar Joan had really good tapas for low price. As transport we used the metro. I reccomend searching for a good plan of the tracks because at the metro itself it isn't always clear where to go.

Public transport is good and cheap. Food is excellent but a bit expensive. The people are nice and to be honest you don’t need almost any Spanish, since everyone speaks English. I feel pretty safe, except for el Raval.
Posted: April 11, 2025i loved barcelona, i think it’s by far the most beautiful city i have ever travelled to. the vibes are unmatched, the architecture is gorgeous, the people are amazing. i felt safe as a woman walking on the streets at night, never got cat-called or harassed. the only downside is i did get pick-pocketed, so watch out for that, the simply snatched a crossbody bag off my mom
Posted: April 11, 2025Barcelona was a good place, I didn’t met picpocket’s for me was safe, I love tradiotional foods, perfect… I met one of my friend in Barcelona she showed me around.

Barcelona was one of the best places to visit for me I have to come back there Everything was amazing Taco Bell was top 1 fast food there On the beach u can feel like heaven Everyone was nice and kind
Posted: April 2, 2025Overall experience it was nice, quite expensive (not as expensive as UK though haha). Tapas were extraordinarily good and sangria as well. I must’ve spent around 60€ per day, because attractions were quite expensive. Recommend buying tickets for Sagrada Familia in advance, as we went there and all the times were fully booked. And expensive, too. But you can get your belly full by eating tapas and snacking from Mercado hehe
Posted: April 2, 2025I didnt feel that safe.but It was overall nice i have been loving my whole Life in Madrid and seeing the beach seeing the Life and the Big streets It was actually really really nice i Will repeat pretty soon
Posted: March 14, 2025Experienced: February, 2019I felt very safe. I stayed at Kabul party hostel and it was amazing they have activities everyday. I met so many people with who i went to party, walked around. I deffinetly raccomend Parc Guel or the Bunkers where you have the whole panorama of the city

As all cities there is some neighborhoods like Raval or la Mina where is better not to go alone during the night but all the other neighbors are pretty safe. But we are having a big problem with pickpockets around the busy areas and the metro.
Posted: April 13, 2025Aside from the pick pockets, its a fairly safe city. Just follow your gut and the advices you would follow in any european country, and u will be fine!!! Enjoy your time I’m Barcelona girls!! I ll be happy to meet u
