Is Kayseri safe for solo female travelers?

Kayseri, like many other parts of Turkey is moderately safe for solo female travelers. The locals are usually hospitable and friendly. However, as with any other destination, it is essential to stay aware of your surroundings, especially at night. It might not be as liberal or as familiar to Western principles as some other areas, so dressing modestly is advisable. Additionally, learning a few basic Turkish words can be beneficial to avoid communication issues.

Daytime, it is okay to do anything, but at night I need a friend to go out. That's why it is a moderate level of safety. For the newcomers, please be careful but don't worry and have fun in this city 🤗

Kayseri is generally a safe city, but it’s not completely risk-free. If you’re a tourist, it’s good to stay aware of your surroundings, especially at night. The city center, Hunat, Cumhuriyet Square, and Talas are usually safe, but areas like Sanayi, Buğday Pazarı, and Eski Sanayi can be a bit rougher, so it’s better to be cautious there. People in Kayseri are generally friendly and hospitable, but that doesn’t mean you should trust everyone too quickly. Small shopkeepers are usually fair, but taxi drivers might try to charge higher fares to tourists, so always check the price beforehand. At night, it's better to avoid deserted areas and use taxis or public transport instead. The tram and buses are safe during the day, but some stops can be empty at night.

Kayseri is a city close to cappadocia which feels safe since it’s not very crowded and more family friendly. Overall people are nice I don’t spend so much time outside at night since city sleeps early don’t have much going on at nights but the area I live (Talas) is more student centered so it’s more lively compared to other parts of the city and feels safer in the evenings
