Is Yerevan Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Couple travel

Safety: overall safe, no issues, but old men were giving me weird stares constantly Things to do: definitely visit the symphony of stones if you want to go to outside the city, really beautiful there, though the entrance has a fee (as i remember 300 dram), and the place is pretty small. Inside the Yerevan didn’t find many places to visit, though I didn’t came prepared enough (my main goal was to visit Okean Elzy concert), so don’t know what to suggest Food: Tan and Lahmajo in the city center is a good cheap place with traditional armenian food. Just next door located more bougiee restaurant with higher prices and european food. Nice too. For supermarkets - SAS and Yerevan city have a good amount of different products to choose from Budget: 600$ for 2 people for 6 days. Ended up spending the whole amount (200$ was for the hotel). But we ate in restaurants primarily (cause we didn’t have a kitchen) Accommodation: at first we booked a room in THE BASEMENT and of course we left, BEWARE THIS PROPERTY!!! The address: 4 Atenqi, 0012 Yerevan, Armenia Ended up booking a hotel, don’t have the name unfortunately, but it was nice 3* hotel Transport: subway is very old, the buses though are new and comfortable. Very cheap taxi

Group travel

A 100% perfect trip to the Yerevan, Armenia 🇦🇲. It was group trip, we met 2 weeks before it on the group in telegram for students. We decided to go to the Yerevan because we are W&T participants and visa is our necessity. So we get our visas and spend great time together 🌹🍷

Solo travel

before going there, i read some posts about travel experience in Yerevan on Chinese social media. and they say that eating there can be even more expensive than in tbilisi. they recommend a few buget restaurants and i tried two of them. Fourchette buffet is the better one. i ordered some beans, beetroot and two chicken wings which was recommended by the friendly server. they also have bread and other set meals. mine cost around 1500 which is an affordable price in yerevan.

I LOVED Yerevan/armenia in general! Felt like a blend of European/middle eastern/russian/central Asian cultures. Hotels & airbnb’s were more expensive than I was expecting. The food was delicious. I recommend doing a couple of day trips down south and also up to lake sevan

Solo travel

I was in Yerevan for a week, and I had a great time! It’s a small city, so a week is enough. The people there are very friendly, the food very delicious, and the prices cheap! Would go again, but maybe in the summer :)

Armenia is amazing if you are a girl. Locals are very sweet and respectful, they would never let you carry a heavy bag by yourself and everyone is always willing to show you around or give directions. Taxi is available and affordable and there will always be an empty room at a hotel. The local food is a form of art. And everything is VERY cheap. Overall just an amazing place to visit!!

Yerevan is one of the safest cities in the world, but you need to know about some regions to avoid especially at night like 3rd mas, Charbax, Qanaqe, near the circus, and Halabyan street. The city center, Komitas, Ajapnyak are safe.

As a local here in Yerevan I feel completely safe when walking at night or interacting with strangers. Of course some events may happen but usually Yerevan is safe and hospitable both for locals and tourists.
