Solo Female Travel in Dublin

Family travel experience

I visited Dublin with my family during summer last July. I feel quite safe in Dublin. But in my opinion there were many homeless people in the streets and also many garbage bags. I would like to recommend visiting Howth which is nearby Dublin by train. I also visited the EPIC museum about Irish Emigration, this museum was very interesting and also interactive.

Solo travel experience

I enjoyed my time as a solo traveler in Dublin! There is definitely plenty to do around the city, and 2 days was not enough for it all. I felt relatively safe alone in the city- I stayed on Abbey St and explored the Temple Bar & surrounding areas alone at night and never felt threatened. There was occasionally begging but that was about the only time I was approached.

Family travel experience

I recommend booking tours in advance (Guinness Storehouse, Trinity College, etc) as they can get pretty full. Walking around is also a great way of visiting the city and getting an idea of what the vibe is like.

Solo travel experience

It was very safe and a great place to be despite the rain. It was decently priced and a humble city to be in with lots to see even outside of Dublin. Getting around in public transit is great. Food was ok. You can visit cathedrals, temple bar, castles, Guinness brewery, Worth a visit

Couple travel experience

I traveled with my boyfriend so I believe that I felt safer than if I was alone, but we didn’t felt afraid at night or with the locals of course you have to be careful with the scams even if I didn’t see much of it. There are a lot of junkies and people that sleeps in the streets. Temple bar is a most. You have like 3 or 4 free museums in the center of the city. Wax museum is cool to and the penny’s bridge is beautiful at night. I stayed 3 nights (400€) you can save money in meals, almost every market have “the meal deals” it’s a meal for 4,5€ and the wax museum was 16€ for students. the only public transport that i used was to go to the airport and to the hotel it was like 25€ I stayed in Baresford hotel, has a good location

Solo travel experience

Dublin was my first solo travel experience, it was a bucket list trip, and it didn’t disappoint. Some of my favorite things I did inside of Dublin were the Guinness storehouse tour, taking a cocktail making class at Jameson, visiting the botanical gardens, and visiting St. Stephen’s green. I took two days while I was there. The first was the cliffs of moher and Galway city, which was very enjoyable. The second was a tour that included a stop at a working farm and a visit to Glendalough and a drive through the mountains, also very enjoyable.

Solo travel experience

I have some friends living in Dublin so i went for the summer vacations. Since I'm brazilian I've found a lot of places where i could eat and listen to music from my country, but i didn't miss the chance to enjoy local culture. There are a lot of museums and interesting places to visit. It's a lovely country, even if the weather is a little too cold and rainy for me 😅 I did a lot of touristing by myself, wich I love and it forces me to meet new people and exchange experiences. I wandered around enjoying the views and felt safe and at peace. The night life is also good, a lot of pubs and clubs to choose from. It was my second time around and I'm definitely going back 🥰

Was a great experience! I went alone but I meet new friends from different countries. Ireland, specially Dublin receives people from different parts of the world, it's ideal to learn about other cultures and life experiences. The landscapes are amazing!!

Family travel experience

Avoid the temple bar and other tourist area’s as they will overcharge and it’s swarmed with pickpockets As of 2023 I would avoid Ireland as a foreigner due to the recent riots and xenophobia causing many people to feel unsafe

It’s not too safe at night as big city but there is a lot of sightseeing and culture definitely worth the travel and exploring. Be sure to map out your journey and ensure you have right means of transportation and payment as most taxis do not accept Apple Pay it’s an app called revolut

I was born, grew up, and lived in Dublin for most of my life. I would quite often go to parties, clubs, concerts, etc., and I always felt safe, even if I was alone, waiting for friends or walking between places. I often returned home alone from the city after nights spent on public transport or in taxis (often to some degree drunk), and sometimes walking, depending on where I lived. Personally, nothing bad ever happened to me. OK, there is a risk of pickpockets, catcalling, etc., as in any city, but I never had any problems or considered Dublin less safe than any other city if you are sensible, just like everywhere else. There are certain suspicious suburbs that I wouldn't necessarily want to walk through at night, but as a tourist, there's probably no reason for you to be there.
