I made a stop in Granada to go skiing in the village of Moncahil, which is also very beautiful. I was walking alone all day around Granada, I felt very safe and got to know quite a lot. It is a very beautiful city, with excellent viewpoints.
Posted: April 10, 2025Met lots of friendly people (both Spaniards and fellow foreigners), the tapas culture was a treat and I wholeheartedly recommend you look into it when here! Even at nighttime as a young woman walking alone I felt quite safe!

I feel so safe as a solo traveler even at night. I do recommend to anyone to visit here. This is my favorite trip so far. You can find a food on your budget. The town is so cute. But please bring a good shoe.

I have been traveling around Spain since May. Granada is definitely on the top of my list of places I’ve visited. It’s beautiful and chic but still filled with culture and history. There are lots of options for places to shop as well as eat. I took a 30 minute bus ride to a small village in the Sierra Nevadas and did a hike called Los Cohorros. I highly recommend it was beautiful and along a river which you could jump in along the way.

Granada is a beautiful city with interesting history. The surrounding mountains are stunning. I want to go back to hike! I was there for three days and stayed in the old part of town. I felt completely safe. I was not out past 11 am so can’t say how it is for late night. People are friendly and it’s easy to travel around. Loved the Alhambra. It’s a must see. It’s incredible and so interesting to learn of its history and the Andalusia region.

Posted: February 24, 2024Grenada is absolutely charming, I went there on my first solo trip and loved every minute. It is located right next to the Sierra Nevada mountains, and I spent one day on an amazing hike during sunset. It is also much more traditionally Spanish than some of the larger cities.
Posted: October 9, 2023Of all the places I have visited in Spain (this was my 4th city), Granada was the least friendly for solo travelers. I was turned away from tables, and all food/wine tours required at least two people. These tours were my favorite way to connect with other travelers. This was discouraging and made me feel really unwanted. The city was very easy to traverse on foot, and the walk to Alhambra itself was beautiful (everything is uphill though, so bring good walking shoes with thick soles that can...

it’s really safe you can walk at night and majority of people are students and young people so it’s fine. you should be fine at most when going with friends so overall it’s fine. granada is very safe and cool
Posted: August 19, 2025Granada is pretty safe!! is one of the safest cities in Spain, even if it's night you can do whatever you want alone, you don't have to worry. Like every city you have to be careful, always, but I live in here since 2020 and I've never experienced something bad.

I have lived here my whole life, overall the city is super safe except for some neighborhoods like Almanjayar(which I would avoid at all cost) I have walked to my home at all hours of the night and experienced catcalling twice. Overall quite safe, though I would still pay attention. Being a woman is hard
Posted: July 10, 2025granada is a place full of tourists, even at night, so it feels very safe. besides some few homeless people who interact with u, there's nothing to worry about. it's a beautiful city with so many wonderful places to visit. i totally recommend it. + the bars are amazing, always finding good offers on chupitos 😉
Posted: June 27, 2025So far i love this city because i feel very safe. I really did not expected to walk around past midnight alone just to get some cigarettes. I also leave not far from the center but still i feel safe. Its been around 4 months now since i have been here
