is it safe to walk to and from canary wharf from across the river thames ? is it also safe to walk around canary wharf?

[Buenchico]

You'll need water wings to cross the Thames to Canary Wharf!

There's no road bridge or footbridge conveniently close to Canary Wharf. The only way for pedestrians to cross is to use the Docklands Light Railway.

Canary Wharf itself is a very safe area:

The nearest point you can cross on foot is the Greenwich foot tunnel a mile or two away at Island Gardens. It's probably safe enough but I'm always relieved to come out of it.

I agree,Dzug2. The Greenwich foot tunnel isn't particularly 'scary' but a quarter a mile of this hardly lifts my spirits!

[SeaJayPea]

Yes it does, where will you be travelling from?

[Buenchico]

Here's a map of the DLR lines, showing where you can connect with Underground and National Rail services. If you require more specific information please post again, telling us where you'll be travelling from, or use the TfL journey planner here:
