Is Lisbon Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel

I was honestly disappointed with Lisbon. During the day, there are only a limited number of places worth visiting, and once it gets dark, the city doesn’t feel particularly safe. The biggest issue was the attitude towards tourists. Even staff working in tourist areas, including airport employees, often treated visitors differently from locals. The difference in their behavior was noticeable and came across as unfriendly and, at times, discriminatory. Taxi scams are also something to watch out...

I loved everything about Lisbon. I have been there in february so it wanst too warm. The weather was about 19 degrees. I have been to Sintra and Cascais which I would really recommend. Also if youre still looking for a stay I‘d recommend goodmorning solo traveller hostel, it was awesome😍

In my experience lisbon was pretty safe even tho they were times people will just offer you drugs even in day time. At night there are some places i would avoid like pink street, not good for a solo female but other than that it’s great

Family travel

Was great experience. The weather, foods, peoples and its unique environment is really something that I really like about it. I really enjoy my vacation there and hope to visit this city or maybe other cities in the future

it's a safe city overall! but as women, we should always stay aware. I've been here for three months, and I've only encountered pickpockets once on the metro! You should always stay alert, keep your phone in your front pocket or securely inside your bag, and avoid leaving any valuables in easily accessible bags or out in the open.

Lisbon is pretty safe. Just pay attention to the pickpockets and certain areas, where you should avoid walking into especially at night. Its overall a safe city, just be aware of your surroundings at all times

Some areas/neighborhoods should be avoided, especially at night and honestly I would never feel safe walking alone at night anywhere (but not all women feel that way...) Uber drivers are also not 100% trustful if they can see you are very drunk (it was on the news 1 time and I never forgot it) so try to show you are alert and follow the trip on your phone all the time.

Overall very safe. People generally don't bother me or steal, but as always, be cautious and also it depends where you go. I don't spend time in the touristy areas and I walk everywhere. I have only felt unsafe a handful of times, but as always, stay sharp.
