Is Paris Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Family travel

I felt pretty safe during my visit in Paris wit my mom and my sister. We visited Disneyland Paris and it was a cool experience. We also visited the Eiffel tower which was a must during the trip! I strongly recommend visiting Disneyland and The Eiffel Tower for anyone visiting Paris.

Group travel

I went there two days, one night. I havent been out so much, only in the metro which made me feel extremely unsafe. I made a bad encounter with a group of youngs men. If i had to give an advice. Dont show any jewellery and dont make eye contact.

I went to Paris last year for a college summer elective course. It was a great trip and honestly overwhelming because there's simply so much to see and do. I did end up getting food poisoning on the first day and had to spend a few days lying in bed which wasnt fun. But despite that i managed to visit a lot of places, and some of the highlights were: 1)Going to the top of the eiffel tower at sunset. I honestly did not plan this because i thought it would be overrated but it became a core memory moment. I went just as they were closing, around 11 pm, so there was no line and i managed to get tickets for much cheaper than what i saw online, and the sunset view from the top was beautiful. Not to mention, the tower started sparkling right when i stepped out onto the second floor and it honestly felt magical. 2)Taking a river cruise along the seine. I took this cruise also around sunset so the whole golden hour made it that much more prettier 3)Sainte Chapelle. Having studied about this building in college, it was so cool to get to see it in person. The gothic architecture, stained glass windows...it is gorgeous. 4)Roaming around the streets of montmarte in the evening. Or just simply roaming around the streets of Paris in general. 5)Claude Monet's house and gardens in giverny. It's just a few hours away from Paris and really beautiful. Monet is someone i studied and researched about a lot as part of college assignments so again it was pretty cool to get to see his paintings and the infamous water lillies in person.

Group travel

Travelled to Paris with a friend. We found many interesting attraction sites and the food was good as well. Contrary to popular belief, I didn’t find the locals rude - perhaps this was an isolated experience. Took great photos and traveled everywhere using the metro. It takes a while to figure the metro system and directions but once you do it’s a breeze. Overall, I felt safe, although I was still wary walking at night, as we all are everywhere honestly. We stayed at a 3 star hotel which I was skeptical about but it still turned out fine. My fave experience there is the Disneyland visit. At my big age it still felt quite magical (im also a sucker for attraction rides which is probably another reason).

Well, the 🗼 and Louvre are worth it. It was a little trip on the 14th of February. U should be ready for the greatness of the museum. If I knew I would dedicate 2 days to the museum because it's really big. My emotions are unexpressive, I was really tired in a good sense from the exhibitions morally and physically. We spent 1.2 k $ with a partner including a hostess to stay, tickets, main attractions & restaurant food for 3 days. I feel that it could be cheaper.

Solo travel

I have been to Paris before with my friend but last month I went alone but I felt really safe. I did not experience any danger, I love Paris very much, the art feeling and atmosphere are very fascinating! Although people usually write things like it is unsafe about Paris, I do not agree with that, I have not had any problems in the two times I have been there

Solo travel

I went to Paris in the becinning of April and it was a really great City Trip. I can Highlights recommend for a solo Trip as there are so many people that you can meet and attractions to See. Also you can spent a week here as there is so much to see

My and my mum visited Paris in 2023. One of the most beautiful thing i remember doing was listening to live music at night with the Eiffel tower as the view. Free and so so beautiful. We visited the “tourist” attraction and we were very happy. Also being under 25 a lot of things were free. Overall it was pretty good. I think it requires a lot of organisations but it’s definitely worth it.

Solo travel

I’ve lived on Paris for 3 years now and I feel safe as long as I don’t go near Chatelet or Gare du Nord and Montmartre surroundings. If you are a foodie I definitely recommend trying Cyril Lignac Brownie and hot chocolate ! I didn’t like Cedric Grolet. For delicious Boeuf Bourguignon, I ve tasted the one of Le Compas which was delicious for 23€ ! Although nothing compares to having apéro on the quais de seine between April and September ! That’s French experience, you favorite drink+ ham or saucisson + cheese from the market and you’r good to go for a delightful sunset. You might as well engage chat with happy French people maybe by asking them to open your beer hahah. Enjoy your trip !

I loved Paris a lot! You need one week at least for here. There are many places to visit. I liked Paris Brest. İt's so delicious! Everyone should try it! I couldn't stop to look at Eiffel tower 🙈 it was so lovely... I wish I will come there with my soulmate in the future... I can't say I felt I'm safe but it was okay. But metro was so dirty.. I did not like that. There was a big horrible traffic also ... If you want to visit everywhere by walk, you will lose too much weight 😂😂 I'm thinking I will visit there at least one more time in my life! Love you Paris! Missed you

I’m trying to be as objective as I can considering my overall safety experiences in the other countries I went to -which were all safer than Paris-. But I didn’t go to “dangerous” areas that western medias describe as “ghetto” you know such as Atlanta, Mumbay etc, so ofc my objectivity is (paradoxally) subjective. But Paris is definitely not a place where you could walk around freely and carefree in revealing clothes without having disturbing looks at the very least, and sexual harrassment or assault at worst. We are women and, as cruel as it is, we are victims of this pretty everywhere. Also, be careful about your belongings as soon as you are outside. For instance, it’s not like East Asia - if you leave your phone not supervised even for 1 minute, be aware that in most cases, you won’t find it back when you’ll look again -. Also, public transports are messy, so do not expect respect in these. That being said, Paris is, like every city, safer or more violent depending of the area you’re staying in. I would not recommend the 18th, 19th and 20th arrondissement for instance. The safest ones would probably be, in my opinion, the 4th (very lgbtq+ and jewish friendly), the 3th (opera) and the 16th (calm and pretty wealthy).

Paris at night can be a bit scary if you are alone. Always walk by night at 2 minimum. ill be saftly. On the day Its more cool and call, dépend on the side you are. Its always nice to have a walk on the Lang street and parks over there
