Solo Female Travel in Netherlands

Amsterdam, Group travel

Amsterdam has a lot to offer from culture to nightlife. I was out as a female most nights clubbing and drinking and felt safe. The transportation is also really easy to figure out. A lot of people bike but the tram is easy too.

Amsterdam, Solo travel

Amsterdam is a great city to visit alone. It's pretty small and easily walkable, lots of museums, nature spots, street food, beer You can rent a bicycle and ride like the locals or take a subway or tram. Out of town trains are always on time and not expensive. I loved it in Amsterdam

Amsterdam, Group travel

Hello , Amsterdam as a student It was my first trip . We went as a group trip and it was amazing . Safety and public transport was good . You feel safe even walking at night . Police was friendly . It’s am amazing trip and weather was incredible nice .

The Hague, Couple travel

I felt very safe and would recommend visiting the pier in Scheveningen. We had very delicious breakfast and visited amazing bars as well. The overall experience was great because The Hague has a lot to offer

Wales, Solo travel

I really enjoyed taking a bus in Wales. It's not expensive and you get to see the country. North Wales is a must see (especially Snowdon) as it is so beautiful! I stayed in hostels that are not hard to find and usually quite good and cheap. I can't say much about food as I haven't tried anything very local but it is possible to eat and not to spend too much. People are friendly. I loved how they chat with strangers while waiting for a bus and create chill and safe vibe. I've had a nice evening with hostel guests and local in Llanberis.

Amsterdam, Couple travel

Amsterdam was a great experience! I went there last month and enjoyed the stay very much. I went with my partner and stayed in a hotel outside of the center. Everyday we took the metro into the city and had great food, went into interesting museums and had the best time!

Oud-Loosdrecht, Group travel

If you like water sports or you like to be surrounded by water and lakes, then Oud-Loosdrecht with its lakes called Loosdrechtse Plassen is the place to be for you! There are lots of water sports clubs there where you also can hire a motor or sailboat or other water sports attributes. The surroundings of Oud- and Nieuw-Loosdrecht are excellent to do hiking or bicycling as well. The people over there are friendly. One downside is that the area isn’t cheap but it’s worth to have a visit over there if you’re in the neighborhood. :)

Amsterdam, Solo travel

I find the people friendly, the city beautiful, the sky wonderful, and the weather good. There are lots of bicycles here 😃—more than anything else! And plenty of pancakes and French fries. The streets are beautiful, and the canals are clean.

Amsterdam, Solo travel

I spent two days but just one night in Amsterdam and I felt that it was enough to see everything but I would also say you could stay a lot more days without feeling bored. The city is absolutely beautiful and I enjoyed a lot even on a buget so I did not visit any of the museums but would love to come back some day to do it . I did felt very safe all times traveling alone and using public transport

The Hague, Family travel

The Hague is one of the most safest towns I have ever been in. The local people were very nice and kind. They were helpful. The food is great and there are many fun activities to visit, such as pubs, the beach and many other things. Would 100% recommend.

Rotterdam

Rotterdam is known as one of the least safe cities in the Netherlands, though by that standard it will still be considered safe in comparison to other cities. I dress Alternatively and do get catcalled on occasion, but have never truly felt harassed. There are also a lot of very kind people here who would help in any kind of situation.

Amsterdam

Amsterdam is quite safe for female travellers both durıng the day and night. Living here two years, i haven’t had any issue so far.You should beware the pickpockets in crowded places and public transportation though.

Maastricht is a very safe city for woman. The public transport is very well organised. But when in the city centre you can almost walk everything. People also do a lot with the bike to see the surroundings of Maastricht

hi ladies! i live in amsterdam in the netherlands. it is a safe city for women in general. in daylight i recommend simply walking through the city (so put on your walking shoes). from central station you can take a tram to go to the jordaan area, it is very nice and not that much tourists as in the center. vondelpark is also nice and if you like buying things second hand i recommend waterlooplein (there is also a metro stop there). If you want to get active, hiring a bike is nice! biking through amsterdam can be stressful but if you just watch out a bit you should be fine. there is another option to take the free ferry to amsterdam north. amsterdam north is very peaceful because tourists don’t come here. if you want to go here: rent or lent a bike!!! from across the ‘Ij’ (the water above central station), you can bike through the cutest towns, chill in all the nature, take a swim and also the coffee over here is cheaper ;)

Utrecht is a nice, pleasant city in the center of the Netherlands. It's less crowded than Amsterdam and has a beautiful historic center. A large indoor stopping mall, next to the main train station, canals, a cayhedral and musea.

I would avoid Spui at night as you will probably get catcalled and stared at, even in a group or with male friends present. You will also get cursed at if you deny someone a cigarette or money. Definitely avoid the Hollands Spoor train station at night as well as I and my female friends have been harassed, catcalled and inappropriately touched, even with boyfriends present.

As a local I can’t remember having a bad experience in the city center, however i would avoid “voorhof” as I’ve had bad experiences biking to school in the area (like being catcalled, spat at and being cornered with bikes) by schoolboys in broad daylight. I recommend Delftse Hout, which is a park with a small beach (beware: it’s not always safe to swim, check internet) and walk or take the bike to Dumidi which is this adorable cafe/restaurant with farm animals. I recommended getting back before dark for your own safety but I’ve never had a bad experience.

Leiden is a university city and quite lively and very lovely. Because it is a university city it is often still active at night, even during the week. I always feel pretty save when traveling, even at night, but occasionally (once every few years) you will hear about unsafe situations. I recommend to travel by bike as it is easiest and fastest. If you want to eat out I recommend BFF (miscellaneous) and Fujiyama55 (ramen noodles) both close to the historic Morspoort in the city center. You should also visit the hortus botanicus and the old observatory.

Ede is very safe, I've lived there all my life and have barely been harassed. Cute cafes are Koffie&Koffie and 30ml :) I also like the restaurants Bloem and Moeke. Besides that there's not that much to do honestly.

Haarlem is really nice, especially the nightlife and if you're an art enthusiast, although I'd be careful walking alone at night as I had a car approach and follow me once. Things to do: + Go to JULES concept, amazing coffee shop I can recommend! + Walk along the canals, especially around winter time they're lit up + Visit the weekly market, I think it was either tuesday or wednesday but they serve freshly made stroopwaffles and if you like kibbling you'll love the fresh fish stands + frans hals museum - for both modern and fine art enthusiasts :)

Hi! Amsterdam is really safe for women! Some tips for (women) travelling to Amsterdam: *Use the GVB app for metro/tram info *Use the NS app for traveling by train *Also visit the area’s outside of the city centre! *Here’s my google maps list with places to visit: https://maps.app.goo.gl/13JAtyh4xdmxddaz9?g_st=i Have fun!

Utrecht is very safe for women travelling alone, just like the rest of the Netherlands. At daytime you can go anywhere. At night I would recommend you stay in or around the city center and avoid Overvecht (but as a tourist you don't really have much to do there anyway :) ).
