Solo Female Travel in Lisbon

Solo travel experience

I travelled to Lisbon last year during spring and it was such a good experience. I went on a solo trip and stayed in a nice hostel not so far from the city center. The transport system is quite reliable if you don’t drive and they have a lot of places to visit. The beach which is a bit out of town is wonderful as well. They’ve got also castles with interesting history and there is a direct train that goes there from the city centre. In general, it was such a good experience for me . I din’d’t get to visit every place because I was only there for three days. I would totally recommend

Solo travel experience

I spent 3 days in Lisbon and i felt very safe there, the locals were all very friendly and welcoming, the food was great and not expensive at all, I stayed at a hostel and it was a great experience. I super recommend doing a walking tour of the city to get to know a bit about the history of the place and to get recommendations for places from locals. Transportation is super easy there, there are day passes that work for all kinds of transport in lisbon, and if you need a place to leave your bags almost all metro stations have luggage lockers for the day!

Solo travel experience

I stayed 3 days in Lisbon as my first solo traveller trip, and it felt great! I always felt safe, of course I only went out during the day (as I do everywhere 😭), so I used to have dinner at the hostel and spend some time with people I met there. I buyed the Lisboa Card so I could use some discount on activities and transportation, and I highly recommend it. Lisbon is absolutely one of my favorite cities in Europe, go and explore it 🇵🇹❤️

Solo travel experience

I’m a big foodie and Lisbon really does have it all! Food is cheaper compared to other European countries and way tastier. I can see there are many tourist right now and generally the place feels really safe.

I felt very safe in Lisbon. Didn't go so much out for dinner where as I'm longtime traveler, I cooked a lot my own food. But if I did it was good food and they are known for seafood. I went to sea museum. And they have lot a beautiful tiles everywhere. So there are lot to do there and see

Couple travel experience

i went to lisbon only for 4 days this year with my girlfriend. we felt very safe walking around at all hours. unfortunately it was quite cold/rainy on our visit however we still found plenty to do. we enjoyed visiting the fado museum right by our accommodation. the food was exceptional and we loved the live music (fado) all through the streets in the evening. very beautiful buildings/scenery and a great place to visit if you love walking!

Group travel experience

So first of all I loved the tiles! I even brought a few back home (disclaimer I didn't rip them off some building, I bought them 😉). So the views were pretty amazing. But unfortunately I didn't feel very safe. One thing about this city that you should know is that public communication is kind of weird. And what I mean by that is that there could be four bus stops standing right next to each other and you have to figure out which one is the one for you. Also you have to wave to the bus driver for him to stop, and they can side not to stop which happens to me quite a few times. Most of the metro stations were unfortunately a bit sketchy and the workers there were drunk.

Solo travel experience

On my trip to Europe last year in Portugal, Lisbon, I had the most beautiful experience, the whole city and its surroundings, especially the beaches, fascinated me as well as beautiful restaurants and cafeterias with an incredibly lively and rich night life, local discotheques and very friendly local people. I fully recommend visiting and enjoying this absolutely beautiful city!

Solo travel experience

While I was travelling in Lisbon, I had a particularly difficult time at my hotel. The hotel manager's behaviour seemed rather racist, which made the experience quite unpleasant. Adding to this, a homeless man spat in my face, and when I approached the authorities, they were very hostile and unwilling to file a report. This made the entire experience even more distressing.

Located in the beautiful country of Portugal, Lisbon has been my home forever. I have met all kinds of different people, portuguese and foreigners. I work in the tourism industry and love to inform them of Lisbon’s safety, as i go home from work by metro and walking at 2am and do not feel afraid on the way.

Very safe if you're careful and don't wonder around with very expensive items at night I guess. I am 37 and was never robbed/assalted in Lisbon. So I think for the european average, Lisbon is one of the safest.

After living in Lisbon for 3 years now I can tell you that it’s a must to visit ! The warmth of the people, the food, the nature, the parties you can have it all. Portugal in it’s all is beautiful to visit and you should definitely explore Lisbon’s surroundings.

Lisbon is a very vibrant city with plenty of free activities. Near Lisbon we have the Atlantic ocean. We have plenty of days with sun to enjoy. In june there are popular parties in the streets. Its de Saint Antony, Saint Jonh and Saint Peter partirs.

Hey, welcome to Lisbon I have been living here my whole life and I know it might sound suspicious, but I think Lisbon it’s one of the most beautiful cities in the world! despite the Sun And the warm weather, you can have a city experience, a beach experience, an also a mountain experience, all in a range of 30 minutes. It’s for sure one of the most safety Capitals In Europe and Portuguese people are very welcoming since we live mostly from the tourism. one thing for sure you have to try once you came here: eat the food. You have to eat Typical Portuguese food, please go to a “Tasca” there you will find traditional dishes, and for desert ask for a “pastel de nata” it’s a trip to heaven :) If you like to go out, Bairro alto is an amazing place. I also recommend you to sightsee Sintra as well as Cascais (you can catch the train) 

Tips about Lisbon : - use UBER or BOLT , nowadays the prices are so ridiculous cheap that sometimes it’s even cheaper than public transports (and if you’re travel w/more 1or 2 px, don’t even lost time in doing it in other way) ; - please try ‘bacalhau à Brás’ , ‘Bitoque’, ‘cozido à portuguesa’ , ‘carne de porco à alentejana’ , ‘peixe grelhado’ … these are Portuguese dishes and the ones I recommend it ! - bifana is our ‘hot dog’ , a street food sandwich that you can pick and go. It should cost 2/3€ and it’s a good grab & to lunch that you can have in almost any cafe. - seafood is good and cheaper outside Lisbon center . Check a place called ‘Eduardo das conquilhas’ in parede ! You can take the train to go there (20min from cais do Sodré) and enjoy the ride with the sea view. - fitting room is a shop in Chiado with different Portuguese brand and very well curated . If you wanna buy something with quality with reasonable prices that’s the place . Enjoy Lisbon :)
