Travel Tips & Safety

Solo Travel & Women’s Safety

Visakhapatnam is relatively safe for solo travelers and women, but precautions are necessary.

✅ Stay in well-reviewed hotels and avoid isolated areas after dark.
✅ Use app-based taxis (Ola/Uber) instead of private auto-rickshaws at night.
✅ If traveling alone, inform someone about your whereabouts.
✅ Women should dress modestly when visiting temples or rural areas.
✅ Avoid accepting free rides or food from strangers.
