Taipei was incredibly safe, the people are very friendly and willing to help! There were a variety of activities, including hiking, local street markets and specialty coffee places. It was relatively affordable (especially the food) and I recommend staying at a hostel called Star Hostel Taipei East, which was clean and comfortable.
Posted: March 22, 2024I was in Taiwan in October last year. 100% super safe, traveling is super easy, excellent public transport, people are extremely helpful and friendly. I highly recommend it. I will definitely come back.
Posted: February 9, 2024One of the safest countries with some of the kindest people in the world. It feels safe to walk on the streets because someone will immediately approach and ask how they can help. Lovely people, interested in the world, and conversation, and ready to help however they can. It makes you want to go back there.
Posted: February 8, 2024y’all this is a MUST go to destination for solo women! it’s super safe and met so many other solo women. i stayed at star hostel taipei main station and the vibes were IMMACULATE. Super recommend to do day trips out of taipei there’s so much u can do just a day trip out w beautiful nature. i didn’t spend that much around 400 AUD for 8 nights (not including accom). the train metro system is easy just buy a sim card and travel card at the airport !
Posted: January 30, 2024Experienced: January, 2024I spent 5 weeks in Taiwan, going all the way around the whole island. Taiwan is a gem for solo travelers. Incredibly safe, the food is delicious, and the people are very friendly.
Posted: January 19, 2024Spend 8 days in Taiwan with family. We enjoyed it overall. Took a road-trip to Taroko and Sun Moon Lake and there are lots more to see. Taipei is vibrant with lots of sights and things to do too as a family with elderlies and small kids.
Posted: January 10, 2024I was there alone in October. 100% safe, traveling is very easy, excellent public transportation, people are helpful and friendly. I highly recommend it and I will definitely return there.
Posted: November 27, 2023I studied abroad in Taiwan and fell in love with the place. I can easily say that it is my favorite place in the world. The culinary culture is amazing (night markets are a must), it is very safe there, everyone is so friendly, and the diversity of landscapes (city, rainforests, beaches, mountains, etc.) is impressive. Taipei is an incredible city - it's very easy to get lost in its alleys.
Posted: October 18, 2023Amazing places to visit, with temples everywhere and not that famous for most of the people. It feels special to be there and not being surrounded by tourists! I'll recommande it 100%, the safety there is non-comparable to any other country (as a solo girl traveler I know what I'm talking about :))
Posted: October 13, 2023Experienced: August, 2018I spent 5 weeks exploring Taiwan, a hidden gem for travelers. It was incredibly safe there, the food was amazing, and the people were extremely friendly.

There are many Surveillance cameras in Taiwan. So people know if they do something bad, they will be found and arrested right away🤣. People are enthusiastic about helping people especially foreigners, so there’s no fear of asking help 😇
Posted: April 30, 2024Overall it is very safe for female, but avoid dark and narrow streets at late night, especially in the countryside. Be aware of people around you when you are walking alone at night, better to have an accompany with you.

My name is Joan, and I am a college student whose major is earth science. My dream is to be a flight attendant, a geological surveyor and a freelancer. And all the reasons behind the jobs is that I hope to travel around the world. I like to use social networking to meet different people. I am going to go to Turku, Finland as a summer exchange student in August this year. I hope I can use this app to get to know more local culture, cuisine and beautiful people!

Taiwan has various delicious food to try, Most of them are even cheap! People are friendly and hospitality. It's safe all the time, but just be careful walking on the road, there are many cars or motorbikes in city. Overall, it's worth to explore Taiwan!
Posted: January 2, 2024I lived there for some time and there is so much to see and do!! Keelung. Jiufen. Yanmingshan. Elephant Mountain. Sun Moon Lake. Eat xiao long bao. Visit the Rahoe night market. And Shilin, if you have the courage to handle the crowds! Head south to Kenting for beaches and relaxation.
