I stayed for 7 days in a hotel which had a minute walk to the centre. My hotel was around 100 per night and my budget for food and activities was €30 per day which was easily achievable. I felt very safe walking at night in the city centre, and the people were very friendly. Not everyone speaks english so try to learn a few basic spanish sentences

I had an amazing time in Malaga, i felt 100% safe walking at night, using public transport or exploring the city, all alone! Food was amazing, you HAVE TO try paella! With chicken, rabbit, shrimp, tofu: all of it was amazing! It's usually a big portion so be prepared!

I generally felt safe. Many people and myriad of tourists. I highly recommend buying tickets to museums and popular objects a few weeks in advance, since they sell out quickly. Must-see places are: Plaza de España; the Cathedral of Seville (beautiful view from the tower, which doesn’t have stairs, but rather ramps and thus is easier to climb into even for elders or disabled persons); Real Alcázar (has a standing queue from early in the morning in order to buy tickets if you missed them online, but arrive very early, like 7:00).

Canary Islands concrete Tenerife is beautiful place. I was so surprised clean nature and many different things… I recommend a trip to Loro Parque. Also recommend lend scooters and to travel the whole island.
Posted: July 2, 2025I went few times in Spain with my family. First time we travelled with a camping car and overall it’s quite easy to find places to stay for free or very inexpensive. I think you feel welcome and safe in Spain, the people are very open and willing to party. And the food is great !
Posted: July 1, 2025I travelled to Alicante with my younger sister. We spent about one week there. We felt safe, We were walking on the streets and beaches even by night. We had a hostel in the same center so We had very close distance to everywhere.

It's generally safe for women walking alone after dark. I've gone back from party alone several times and nothing ever happened to me. I would recommend Madrid for solo traveler women, it's weird that anything can happen to you.

I think is a good place to travel as a female, theres a lot of students here and people are friendly. Nights are good to walk and there is people around all the time. You may evade little streets if you fell more secure
