Istanbul is, not sure about other areas. I went solo couple of years ago

Verified MSTer

Absolutely. It’s so safe and so crowded. Be aware of pickpockets and scammers. But apart from that it’s really excellent for solo traveling

Verified MSTer

Yes for the most part , it’s safe . I’ve been to quite a few small villages and to Istanbul solo. It’s safer than USA .

Verified MSTer

Yes very safe. Just avoid empty streets in Istanbul by night like anywhere in the world. But overall it’s very safe enjoy your trip

Verified MSTer

It depends on the location which you are travelling to. I partially lived in Didim, Aydin, but still made sure I was home before dawn.
