Solo Female Travel in Kosovo

Group travel experience

I took a day trip to Kosovo from Skopje, North Macedonia today with my older brother and his girlfriend. We first visited Pristina, the capital, and then went over to Prizren. Our guide told us that it is very safe and we did not have to worry about pick pockets while in the city. The history here is fascinating and very complicated. I wish we would have stayed for a whole day in one of the cities instead of just a tour, but it was still amazing!

Solo travel experience

mostly felt safe walking around and there were great hikes. food was amazing and so cheap. not a lot of women solo travelling too so i didnt really meet many people. overall great experience and history

Solo travel experience

Kosovo is probably the least visited place I've been to. I really liked it there. This place is not stereotypically "beautiful" (although Prizren is), but it was really interesting to see it with my own eyes.

Solo travel experience

I visited Pristina and Prizren and had a great time in both cities. Kosovo is not a traditional "hotspot" for tourists, which I really liked. The local residents turned out to be extremely nice - I even got lost at one point trying to find a restaurant, and a pair of locals lead me to it. The rural area is also very beautiful, so I highly recommend it.

Group travel experience

I had the opportunity to visit Kosovo, specifically Prizren and Pristina. Among these two cities, Prizren charmed me the most, despite its small size. I managed to see everything I wanted in just two days. Additionally, I consider Kosovo a safe place for women, as my group, consisting of three girls, did not encounter any problems.

Solo travel experience

My solitary journey to Kosovo was an incredible experience, which I really enjoyed! The locals were incredibly hospitable and helpful, and everything was very affordable. Among the places I visited, I particularly valued Prizren, which offered a completely different experience than Pristina. In Pristina, I visited a nearby bear sanctuary, whereas in Prizren, I went on a fantastic hike to see an amazing view of the city. I also recommend a day trip to Skopje in Macedonia, which is only an hour and a half bus ride away. There, you can stroll freely and it offers a unique experience. Everywhere I went, great walking tours were offered, and I felt completely safe throughout my entire journey.

If you come to Kosovo, be sure to visit Prizren (a beautiful city), Peja (amazing nature - if you love outdoor activities, you can also go hiking, take the via ferrata route, try ziplining, etc.), Gjakova (my hometown - the best coffee, very friendly people, you can swim in Lake Radoniqi, admire the view from Çabrati hill, etc.), Prishtina (the capital- probably the best nightlife in Kosovo).
