Solo travel

Honestly I really liked it but I felt a little bit unsafe after dark and not being in a touristy places. I was traveling g on a budget and I think I paid like $200 for 4 days there (not including flights and a place to sleep). I was using public transportation all of the time.

Solo travel

Honolulu was a really busy place, it as pretty expensive and a bit lonely for a solo trip. I think being on my own wasn’t maybe the best as a lot of men would come up to me on the street and ask me out. At first it seemed ok but it really wasn’t and I realised that the American culture is kinda superficial so everyone seems really nice at first but it was not very safe. During the day it felt very safe but at night it was not great walking alone, I found it hard to make friends with other...

Couple travel

I felt very safe in Honolulu! I was with my partner but either way I would feel completely safe solo travelling. We walked around early in the morning and late at night, and stayed slightly off the beaten path. A fair amount of homeless people in some spots, but they did not approach me. We took a bus to diamond head and it was completely reliable and safe.

O'ahu is generally a safe place. I feel very safe taking public transportation and mostly safe going hiking alone or to secluded beaches. I'm careful about not leaving valuables in my car or unattended at a beach. People are usually really friendly and will definitely help in an emergency.

Waikiki during the day and night (before 11pm) are usually safe. Shops close around 10/11pm and the traffic declines. Stay clear of alleyways during the night. Kalakaua Ave is usually more lit up than Kuhio Ave, so I’d rather walk there.

It’s a very small town on a very small island. There are parts that have more “crime” than others, but it’s mostly petty crimes and theft because of the extreme poverty. Hawaii is a very expensive place to live and the wages here are not equal to the cost of living. That is the only reason I stay alert, as women always should, but I walk around alone and travel alone and this is by far one of the safest cities in the USA.
