Very safe and cozy city. Great atmosphere, amazing architecture. Very slow paced lifestyle. Book main tickets (Alcazar, Cathedral) in advance if you want to visit. Alcazar totally worth it. The food is quite cheap.

I went to Seville for the ACDC concert, so I was only there for a couple of days. It was very easy to get from the airport to the center of the city, a bit harder to find your way on the streets. Pretty hard actually. But it was okay, it's such a beautiful city so I've had to see much wandering around. I felt very safe. It was only at one point I was holding my bag extra hard, late at night in a small alley and I saw like 2-3 guys walking in the opposite direction as me, but I don't think they even looked at me. The concert was a big one, many people. It felt very safe to be there. And after there was a party outside the arena with lots of people. I met a few and all of them was just so nice and fun to party with. I would go back! I'm just sorry I didn't see more places in the city.

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).

The city is beautiful and has a really vivid night life. There are many different things to explore and especially when you are into museums you need at least 2/3 days to see everything and don’t feeling rushed.
Posted: June 11, 2025Sevilla was an amazing experience! The vibes were great & people very friendly! I really loved the flair that the orange trees give to this sunny city! Sharing Tapas with other Solo Travellers is a must do there! Just make sure to book your alcazar tickets in advance to not stand in a queue at 8am 🥲

Felt very safe, everyone was really helpful and friendly. A lot of tourists around! I was walking around alone alot of the time and didn’t ever feel unsafe Didn’t catch public transport but taxi drivers were helpful

In the center or the tourist districts it is very safe. Public transportation is also very cheap. But the important thing is to avoid areas like “3000 viviendas”. Seville is very safe in other areas but that specific area is quite dangerous and there is also nothing touristy
Posted: August 10, 2025I would describe Seville as a very safe city. Even though you have to walk a lot and also do so in the night, after going for the club for example, I always feel quite safe. So far nothing happened to me :)

About most touristic areas, nothing to worry about at all. Just take care of your belongings, in Plaza de España main square. I recommend u have a walk around the centre and Las Setas. Transport is very safe and often. I have grown up there
Posted: May 7, 2025Generally safe, the biggest problem I've had is my bike stolen 3-4 times. I wouldn't wander around certain areas at late hours of the night for too long, definitely be careful if walking home by yourself while intoxicated.
