Mumbai is a cosmopolitan metropolis, city of dreams and commercial heart of India. Mumbai's beaches, historical monuments, amusement parks, delicious street food attract tourists from across the world. Although Mumbai is India's largest city with a population exceeding 20 million people but still it is relatively a safe city. Andheri is one of the safest areas and there are numerous budget hotels in Andheri for your stay. Though Mumbai is safe, being a woman, you should be aware of certain safety aspects.
  • Accommodation: There is ample accommodation in Mumbai but make a good choice. Avoid your stay in remote areas. South Mumbai is quite safe and has exclusive and exotic hotels. You can make your bookings in any one of these hotels
  • Conveyance: Online cab services like Ola and Uber are the best options for female tourists, as your ride can be easily tracked. Public transportation like local trains and BEST buses are also quite safe. You need to be a little careful if you are hiring local cabs or auto rickshaws.
  • Decent Dressing: It is always advisable to carry decent apparels. Short dresses should be avoided and you should not venture out alone late at night.
  • Safety tips:
  • Before riding any vehicle take a photo of its number plate and share with your friend.
  • Avoid taking a lift or any kind of help from a stranger.
  • Avoid any kind of drink or eatables given by strangers.
Nightlife is good here in Mumbai but avoid secluded places. It is comparatively a safer city for women as most of the areas are patrolled by police and 1091 women helpline is always there for you. So, pack your bags and visit Mumbai this year.
