I would describe bari as a fairly safe city but it depends on where you're walking. Around the center it's pretty safe except for the station and neighboring areas. Clearly the further you move away from the center the more unsafe it becomes
Posted: January 2, 2025Overall it’s safe but you have to be always careful , in public transportation I have noticed some harassment ( verbal ) , also one time an old guy tried to invite me to meet , these stuff happen everywhere really so being careful is a must

I always felt very safe in Bari. The city is know to be dangerous on some guides on the internet, but after living there for 8 months, I never experienced any danger. Walking home alone at night never felt like a problem for me. I stayed in the city center, just fyi
Posted: July 17, 2024Bari is a really safe place, only in the evening in some areas you may be the only person walking and you may feel uncomfortable but for the rest you will be immediately welcomed by everyone and you will feel at home, avoid the "libertà" neighborhood
Posted: June 29, 2024I think there is so safe. Peoples kind and helpful for me. Dont worry about the safe. I am a girl 21 years old. ı dont worry about safe. Already everywhere is centre in the Bari so you can find some people always for you feel more safe
Posted: March 19, 2024Safe in tourist places; just avoid walking in dark streets alone. The city also offers beautiful beaches, delicious cuisine featuring seafood and local specialties like orecchiette pasta, and a vibrant cultural scene.

I just got back from a solo trip to Bari, and I didn't have a single unpleasant experience, everyone was very helpful and friendly. I walked around the city at night too, and I felt very safe.
Posted: November 1, 2024I just simply fell in love with this city. Many people don’t stay here long, because they use it as a stop for their trip around Puglia. But let me tell you, I felt so at home. And although Bari is known as a rather dangerous city I never felt unsafe, I often walked home alone in the middle of the night (I stayed in the city center, just fyi)I could probably write a full food guide, but you must try Frulez, and Panzerotti & Focaccia at Magda. And so many cute vintage shops, Piattini D’avanguardia, Eroi, Prinz Zaum etc etc. Also: If you’re there in November/December: Check out the Bari International Gender Film Festival!<3

Hi, I am Federica, from Bari, Italy :) I am a musician, I play the saxophone and sing and attend the Monopoli conservatory. My other job is being an Italian teacher online. I enjoy reading, films, a nice chat outside, good wine, dancing... And many other stuff. I would like to travel more, meet new people and maybe have hospitality for free, it would be great! I am currently moving house so I hope I can return the favour soon. Let's meet!
