South Lake Tahoe is very safe, and there is plenty to do. There is boating, walking, biking, and shopping. If you prefer to just take it all in, the best option is to get out on foot and explore. I really enjoyed hiking, but just be mindful of the heat and the altitude and prepare accordingly.
Posted: June 30, 2025Experienced: May, 2025Rented an Airbnb that was walking distance to a market hall that had everything called Stanley. This is a must! Very close to Denver. We did end up renting a car after a couple of days to explore the outdoors. I would definitely recommend!

Genuinely New York is one of my favourite places to travel to the only downside of it is how expensive stays are. It’s super expensive to travel Solo and it’s best to go with groups. Safety wise it is great. There’s a lot of people everywhere at any time. The city is always alive and transport has always been great
Posted: June 25, 2025Downtown Portland is not a safe place to go as a solo traveler especially at night there is a lot of homeless and drug addicts just lurking around but if you go to the nature scenery the waterfalls those places are safe
Posted: June 25, 2025Great experience, very beautiful. Felt very safe especially in Waikīkī where I stayed. Very busy, but that was a bit welcome to a new traveler. Stayed at Honu by ALOH hostel - very nice place, not a great location mostly because of very difficult parking. Please be mindful of parking signs and towing signs - they will tow! Everything is expensive - but going on tours and diving cage less with sharks was the best thing I did!
Posted: June 24, 2025Pensacola is beautiful! I would definitely recommend going if you have the chance! The beaches are beautiful, the food is great, and the people are pretty chill. There’s something to do anywhere you go, nightlife isn’t too crazy. I love it and will definitely be going back soon!

Downtown Portland is like any other big city — I would say maybe safer than your average one. Be mindful of your surroundings, don’t engage in any suspicious or aggressive behavior, be careful walking around during the night. I would use ride share if possible!
Posted: July 3, 2025Some areas are very safe, but it's better to treat it as any normal city in America (i.e. don't walk around alone at night). There are streets that will be deserted at night, and walking alone can feel creepy.
