Prague

Prague is one of the safest major cities in Europe. Violent crime is very rare. The main risks are petty theft and tourist-targeted scams, particularly in Old Town Square, on Charles Bridge, and in crowded areas around Wenceslas Square.

Seville

Seville is generally safe but has higher pickpocketing rates than many European cities. Tourist-heavy areas like the Cathedral, Plaza de Espana, and the Santa Cruz quarter are hotspots. Bag snatching from scooters also occurs.
