This is akin to asking, "Is it safe to drive through downtown Detroit?" It depends on what you are doing. Generally, as long as you keep your wits about you and don't go "looking for trouble," you will be fine. The Dark Web is the "seedy underbelly" of the internet where one can find various websites that are not as commonly viewed and can deal with both legal and illegal topics, purchases, and more. If your interest is only to look around and see what is there, then you should be safe enough. The issue comes when you try to interact with those who inhabit the Dark Web, such as to purchase some item. After all, there is no way for you to know whether it is stolen, potentially used in a crime, or even if you will receive the item in question. Then again, one runs the same risk when dealing with the likes of eBay out in the regular Internet world.

So, is it safe? Reasonably so, provided you don't do anything foolish.
