I took a day trip to Zurich from Milan. I think one or two days is totally enough for Zurich. People were really kind and there is no chance that feeling of any danger. It is so expensive city ( even we did not stayed at there) to compare other european cities. I liked the vibes of beer saloons, you can eat and drink your beers.
Posted: May 28, 2025I felt safe, but everything was really expensive and quite out of my reach. I liked the city even if it rained a little, and liked the people I met there. The only problem is that there is not much nightlife.
Posted: May 12, 2025Experienced: March, 2021Switzerland may be one of the safest countries I've been to, I think it's very safe for women. Zurich was very nice but I couldn't find much to do in the winter, it's still peaceful and beautiful, ideal for a 2-3 day trip. I don't think they have very good food, food and accommodation are extremely expensive.
Posted: March 31, 2025Experienced: January, 2025Really safe for females and solo travellers who travel like local and surrounded by genuine nature, the weather is perfect to enjoy an adventurous outdoor activities like picnicking , hiking, strolling. Local pastries and foods are worth to eat I might probably one of the lucky person that I met a local who is frankly amiable and share her experience as a urban guide which an expensive experience and we still keep in touch.

That was my very first solo travelling experience. Zurich was so safe and pretty. Although I spent a lot of money fro food and transport, I enjoyed there to the fullest. At night I stayed with a couple who I hadn't met before. They were super nice people and prepared dinner for me and welcomed me with kind hugs. It felt so amazing being solo traveller and making such a perfect connection there.

Zürich is a very safe city, I never felt unsafe while walking alone, even at night, for sure you need to be cautious, but I never experienced any assault here. Some drunk people could hang out near the train station at night, but that’s it

Hi everyone! I'm currently traveling through Central and South America and trying to keep my trip as low budget as possible. I'm always grateful for any tips to save money whether it's affordable places to stay, cheap transport, or local food spots. If you're up for sharing a tour or even inviting me into your home, that would mean a lot and help me continue this journey. Looking forward to meeting kind souls along the way!
