Is Montpellier Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

I spend 7 weeks in Montpellier for a language course and it was so much fun! The city is beautiful and in my experience pretty safe (except for cat calling and some pickpockets). There are great daytrips possible to Marseille or Sête, which also are very pretty and popular. Or you can visit the Museums, beach or other attractions in Montpellier itself. As an 18 year old I partied a lot in the Clubs Panama (esp. the Latina floor/2nd floor) and Le Club. It’s definitely not cheap, but when has...

Solo travel

I stayed with local woman who hosted me in her beautiful apartment for one night. It was amazing experience. First we had a coffee and little chat in one of the cute coffee places and then we went to her place to have a dinner and a bit of wine.

Solo travel

Montpellier is one of my favourite cities in France :) Travelling solo there was a lot of fun. I really appreciated that the city is close to the sea & that the people are really relaxed & open-minded.

Feeling relatively safe as a women, a bit less at night close to the train station in the center. Quite welcoming for lgbtq+ people, a nice community. Overall great city to live in and visit! Would recommande for both

usually pretty safe, a few places aren't as safe but i'd say it's mostly people wanting to sell you drugs or cheaper cigarettes who can be a bit intimidating but they would usually leave you alone if you politely decline.

Montpellier is a really cool and warm city from southern France, with a lot of safe bars and pubs, but like everywhere there are some place to avoid when you are alone, especially as woman unfortunately.

Montpellier is a very beautiful city, I lived there for 6 years, it's really a pleasant city with lots of beautiful things to visit. During the day it's fine, no problem, but at night there are some places where you need to be careful and maybe not be alone.
