From years of global travel experience, thorough research, and insights shared by other passport bros. I have come up with the map of the best places in europe for single guys based on cost of living, hookups, quality and ease of dating. All of these countries have their pros and cons but it is ranked from best to worst as well as possible. These are not popular destinations for normal tourists. Let’s delve into the top picks:
1. Romania – Cluj-Napoca
This is the only country in Europe where i am regularly approached by women. Romanian women are very confident and they drop very obvious hints. The cost of living is Low and they have good weather, nightlife and lots of stuff to do. All of the major cities are good options to go to.
2. Poland – Łódź
Poland emerges as a European gem where model looking women are easy and the cost of living is low. The competition in Poland is very low as most of the local guys don’t have game and not that good looking. I would suggest every major city in poland other than Krakow.
Polish women are a balance between sweetness, tradition, and a newly embraced liberated spirit influenced by Western ideals.
3. Slovakia – Kosice
Slovakia is suggested for those who want to Hike, Focus and take it easy. I would suggest the second largest city Kosice. This is a hidden gem for top quality although there is not much to do other than women.
4. Bulgaria – Sofia
Sofia is the easiest city in Bulgaria but I would suggest one of the coastal cities like Varna or Burgas as the capital is very boring. You will be valued a lot for being a westener. In Bulgaria there is literally Zero competition and the culture encourages women to take care of themselves and look good.
5. Estonia – Tallinn
Moving towards the Baltic, Estonia stands out as a haven for single guys. The women here, influenced by a blend of tradition and western values. The capital has decent nightlife and good looking women. In Estonia i would suggest Tallinn or Tartu.
6. Kroatia – Zagreb
The capital of Kroatia, Zagreb has one of the best Ratios of good looking women in all of europe, second only to Serbia. I would suggest going here in the off season. It’s also a beautiful country for hiking .
7. Finland – Helsinki
Helsinki has some of the worlds most liberated women. This makes it one of the easiest cities for hookups. There is not much to do and it is quite expensive and cold but the blonde women make up for it. They’re beautiful and quite easy. It’s like the more boring but easier little brother of Stockholm – you can read more on swedish women here – How to Date Swedish Girls: No-Bullshit Guide.
8. Russia – Saint Petersburg.
Since the start of the situation all the tourists have left. This is your chance to take advantage of that with everything being cheaper and there being less competition. The only hard part is getting a visa to get in.
While Russians may not be the quickest to come over, the quality and magazine-cover-worthy looks, makes a compelling case for single guys seeking a top tier women. Here i would suggest Saint Petersburg as it is the most safe and friendly for westerners.
9. Hungary – Budapest
Hungary makes it on the list due to how much there is to do in budapest. The nightlife is great and the women are relatively good. The cost of living and price of rent is low. This is one of the only cities where i would suggest going during tourist season for the best parties in europe
10. Serbia – Belgrade
In the heart of the Balkans, Serbia has by far the best ratio of hot women in all of europe. It is also not a very popular destination so your value will be high as a foreigner. I can only suggest the capital Belgrade. The competition is quite fierce here but the quality is top notch. If you’re willing to put in the effort it’s definitely worth it.
11. Slovenia – Ljubljana
If you ask any balkan they will tell you that Slovenian men are very feminine. In this country there is no competition and the women are very slutty. It’s only this far down on the list due to being fairly boring to live in. The pros are that the city is beautiful and very walkable.
This is one of the best countries on this list for online dating.
I would only suggest the capital Ljubljana as the country is very small.
12. Ukraine – Kiev
Yes Kiev, If you’re willing to take the risk you will also be rewarded for it. The situation in the capital or in Lviv is safer than going to Naples, Italy in my opinion. it might be hard to believe but tourism is still doing ok here. This might be a once in a lifetime opportunity if you’re looking for a 10/10 wife as an average guy.
13. Czech republic – Prague
Prague is not as easy as it used to be due to the growing overtourism. It is still a recommended city due to having possibly the best nightlife in Europe, tied with Budapest. If easiness of hookups is what you’re looking for then i would suggest cities like Brno or Plzen.
14. Istanbul – turkey
Is it considered Europe? is it not? I don’t care. Don’t be fooled by the muslim culture. the women here are quite slutty and it’s overall a very fun city to be in. It’s cheap, there’s lots to do and it’s warm. Single western men will do very well here and that is why it is also gaining popularity for digital nomads.
15. Berlin – Germany
This one makes it on the list only due to the insane parties. If you’re experienced and into raves and completely degenerate clubs where you can hookup on the dancefloor then this is your place. I would not recommend living here but it is definitely worth a visit.
In conclusion, the best european cities for hookups and single men varies not just between countries but also within cities. Steering away from overly touristy destinations is usually the best option. These insights has been updated in 2024. As opinions shift, so too will this guide.
