based on 6 experiences from female travelers
beautiful city, amazing people and culture, the best food, super fun nightlife, stunning nature ranging from snowy mountains over pretty beaches to hystorical towns. men still suck and I wouldnt recommend walking alone at night, generally I did feel safe though (or as safe as a woman can feel in any big city).
Posted: January 10, 2025Experienced: June, 2016I have been in Beirut for two weeks and it is an amazing time. This city is full of energy, with lots of things to do, bars, clubs, parties, shops and restaurants. People here are very kind. I felt very safe.
Posted: August 1, 2023I went to Beirut alone in October of last year and felt safe the entire time. Beirut is a very diverse, lively city with old neighborhoods, but also with a huge amount of new investments and a myriad of great bars and restaurants that are opening there. Beirut was my base, from where I made day trips to Tripoli, Sidon and Tyre on local buses. I loved it and definitely want to go there again.
Posted: July 31, 2023I was in Lebanon for 5 days and had a good time as a solo traveler. Lebanon is a diverse and hospitable country. The people are friendly and welcomed me everywhere I went. Most people speak English. I hired drivers to take me to places such as Byblos, Baalbek, and Beit ed-Dine palace. They were respectful, professional, and well-informed drivers.
Posted: May 9, 2023I was there in November and felt safe, I would always like to go back. The Lebanese are friendly and I just hope that a solution is found for all the problems they are struggling with. I recommend taking cash with you and not using a credit card, as you will be cheated on the exchange rate.
Posted: May 3, 2023I have visited Lebanon many times, but never alone. I always traveled with someone from that area and stayed with them. I recommend staying in Beirut, as other cities can be very conservative. Knowing at least a little Arabic is also highly recommended. Overall, Lebanon is wonderful, but caution is definitely advised.

Beirut is a big city and like most cities you have areas safer than others, it’s good to always keep things with you on hand like pepper spray and if you’re traveling alone always have your location shared with someone trusted, and if you can try to befriend locals do so as they can show you around and inform you of safe/unsafe areas. There’s amazing people of all kinds in Beirut!

Tricky question haha! But it may sound unsafe in the news but Lebanon is more than a country its a lifestyle and a huge welcoming community. Coming from a girl who've experienced and lived a-lot here I can consider Lebanon to be a safe place where everyone where everyone would run to help a girl out. Lebanon is an experience that everyone should at least live once in their lifetime, you could feel directly at home through our gorgeous and generous people living here.

Heyy :) My name is Levke and am so happy to start my first TravelLadies adventures here! I am a northern German soul who moved to Eastern Germany, beautiful Erfurt, for my studies. I am a super political and social person. I appreciate honest and caring communication and open-minded encounters. I study International Relations and Social Sciences and hand in my thesis soon. For April I decided to solo travel again after a long break. I am super excited to get to know you. your cities, and impressions in general! Always down for a walk, coffee, beer, reading or cooking session or a protest or community gathering :D I am a queer feminist and engage in human rights and environmental activism. My diet is vegetarian / mostly vegan and I love to try new dishes :)) Besides politics, I simply love to engage in a good chat!
