Solo travel

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.

Met 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.

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

Granada 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

granada 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 😉
