Is Basel Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Family travel experience

It was safe. Nature was very beautiful. But everything was very expensive. It’s impossible to drink coffee or eat out. Swimming in Rhine is very enjoyable. As long as you do free activities, Basel is very nice. Hiking in nature, definitely go to Well am Rhein

Solo travel experience

It was a very safe and calm city. It was more cosmopolitan than I expected. Transportation was very easy, but in general it was an expensive city. I felt that everyone spoke at least three languages and was helpful

I felt safe in Basel. Its very expensive but coffee and chocolate inexpensive in the city. Im happy for visited to Basel. Its cold when I went. If you will visit in April, you should take winter the clothes.

Basel is very safe place where you can walk in the dark with no risk. This city is very comfortable and transport access is safe and perfect. Despite there are many nationalities you feel safe everywhere.

Basel is very safe. There are few exceptions were I wouldn‘t walk alone at night in the dark, but I think that‘s common sense. Otherwise really no worries, you can even leave your phone on the table and probably nothing will happen (although I wouldn‘t risk it).

Solo travel experience

I spent approximately 7.5 hours in Basel. It was a day where I walked alone for hours, covering 15 km without the internet on my back. Except for Münsterplatz, I couldn't find free internet outdoors. Museums were closed because it was Monday, so I couldn't visit a few museums I wanted to see. Even if they were open, I wouldn't have had enough time, but oh well. Basel is a city worth exploring if you are passing through or nearby, but if you don't have the money and time, especially, there's no need to go. I don't think you'll find something different in this city that you can't find in Central Europe.

Been to Basel with no expectations honestly but being there it had nothing really to surprise me. There is not much to see. The streets look full and chaotic. I walked a lot like usually but found nothing great to see expect an botanic garden from a university nearby which was the best thing during my stay. It was very hot and everything was way too expensive. Good in Switzerland it u have drinking fountains everywhere.
