The levels of crime are low with serious crimes like muggings and robbery being quite rare, especially in areas frequented by tourists. The city is well-lit and remains bustling until late in the night, making it safe to walk alone. The public transportation system is reliable, efficient, and operates round-the-clock in the city. Yet, like anywhere, it's always important to remain alert and aware of your surroundings for your personal safety. Also, it's suggested to prefer reputable taxi services or public transport rather than accepting rides from strangers.

Transport:Easy

Prague is fairly easy to navigate. The city is well-organized, compact, and most tourist attractions are within walking distance from each other. It also offers a reliable public transport system which includes trams, buses, and a metro. It's a relatively safe city as well, making it a suitable destination for solo female travelers. However, getting around might take some initial adjustment due to the local language and the need to familiarize yourself with the city layout.

Things to do:Fascinating

Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is an extraordinary destination packed with a myriad of activities. First, the city's landscape is a visual treat, filled with stunning architecture in both Old Town and Lesser Town. The Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, and Astronomical Clock are must-see sights. Second, the city has a plethora of museums like the National Museum and Kafka Museum that offer enriching cultural experiences. Lastly, the gastronomy scene in Prague is appealing, offering the opportunity to try traditional Czech dishes or indulge in international cuisine. Outdoor lovers will appreciate the numerous parks and gardens for leisure walks. These can all be done while feeling safe as Prague has a reputation for being a secure city.

Food:Above average

Prague offers a diverse range of food, beautifully blending its rooted traditions with contemporary tastes. You'll discover a wide selection of hearty local dishes, such as goulash and trdelník. The city also hosts a variety of international cuisine from Italian to Asian. However, vegetarian or vegan travellers may find the options slightly limited. A balanced mix of street food, casual dining, and upscale eateries ensure there's something for every taste and budget.

Budget:Affordable

Prague is quite budget-friendly, especially compared to other major European cities. Accommodation ranges from budget to luxury options, with several affordable hostels and hotels.

Solo travel experience

My experience in Prague was a bit sad for me. I didn't feel safe at night, I had to spend the night outside due to my login problem due to the hostel check-in time and I was constantly harassed, men were giving very disturbing looks, I felt very unsafe. İ hope you have really good experience in prague .But i want to recommend you to eat Trdelnik which is so famous traditional dessert in Prague. İ loved it . Also city is not that expensive. İ hope you will have good experience. Be careful and safe all travel ladies :)

Solo travel experience

It was my first solo trip. In terms of safety I had mixed experience specially in clubs. You need to watch out for your personal belongings or else it can get stolen. But overall I love the vibe of the city. I did a hike with a friend second time I was there to Hrensko, it was beautiful

Couple travel experience

It is a very beautiful unique city. We stayed at a almost perfect hostel and since the city is already cheap the accommodation was also very cheap almost 12 euros per night. The city is beautiful, we spent most of our time in Prag castle and climb the bell tower there, which u recommend highly. The famous bridge and the old town square are so impressive and you feel like you can't leave there. My overall experience was so good. I traveled lots of cities and Prague is my favorite.

I visited Prague with friends in July 2023 I recommend it very much It’s a city where you can walk everywhere without it being too steep, but if you prefer there’s also reliable transportation. We felt very safe, the locals were all very friendly and welcoming. I suggest visiting the main attractions but also the Hebrew cemetery with a guide it’s very interesting. The food is very good but be prepared to eat a lot of meat, but there are also a lot of options for vegan/vegetarian people

Solo travel experience

I felt very safe trough the whole trip. I arrived in the night to the town but I do not had to worry about my safety. I was not satisfied with the food, meanwhile tried to choose restaurants with good reviews. It has good sights, pretty walkable city. You can see all in 2 days.

Went to Prague in the summer of ‘23 after my graduation with a group of friends and had such a fun time. The city had everything you could possibly want; amazing restaurants and bars, souvenir shops and shopping malls, great clubs etc. There was something for everyone there so I highly recommend.
