Is Uzbekistan safe? Notes for solo travellers and women

The short answer

Yes. Violent crime against tourists is extremely rare, cities are walkable at night, and curiosity from locals is friendly, not threatening.

Solo women

Travellers consistently describe Uzbekistan as comfortable for solo women. Dress is relaxed in cities; a scarf is needed only inside working mosques. Expect questions about family — they are conversation, not pressure.

Practical

Use official taxis or Yandex Go, keep a copy of your passport, and register hotel stays (hotels do it for you). Our concierge is reachable day and night in the chat you booked from.
