Pisa is overall a safe city. The public transportation is safe (both busses and trains), my only ever unsafe experience was a few months ago on a train when two guys started taking pictures of me, I reported them and the conductor made them leave. I would advise you to be careful during late hours around the train stations (especially stazione centrale), just for safety (it's regarded as the worst neighborhood but it's not that bad tbh). Also, look out for pickpockets!!! Especially near the train station San Rossore, there are a few women who will always try to get in the elevators or will bring umbrellas to create chaos and grab whatever they can from your purses. Aside from that Pisa is overall a pretty safe city, I'm a 20yo girl and I never had any problem. There is no transport during the night but you can rent bicycles, scooters and Pisa is pretty small so you can literally walk anywhere.
Posted: May 6, 2025Overall Pisa is not a dangerous city. It’s lived mostly by university students and young people, so it’s quite calm and you can walk at night alone without worrying that much, but of course you always have to be a little bit careful especially in places like the train station.

Pisa is not that dangerous but there are some areas that need a little more attention. In the city center you should be safe, near the train station maybe a girl shouldn't walk alone. In the daylight I think it's safe everywhere, maybe some areas just a bit of catcalling but nothing serious.

Went to Pisa to see a long distance friend of mine, i had already been there with my family when i was younger, i remember the main place (where the leaning tower is) was really busy with tourists and the bars near there were expensive, but if you stay for the night and go to the city center (10 min walk from the tower) you will find lots of shops, ice cream bars, etc. There are many many university students from all over italy and they usually all meet up in these bars. I felt safe with my friends both during the day and night, some creepy drunk men at very late night but just dont go near them… overall tho a very beautiful city!!

Hi mie care! I'm a Turkish girl majoring in philosophy in Istanbul. Currently I'm in Pisa for my Erasmus studies and while I'm here why not visit some cities I've been wanting to see :] I'm also queer and pacifist so if you feel any animosity towards certain people or groups because of their sexuality, gender, race, religion etc. please do not engage ^-^ Feel free to text me if you want some advice or tips for your trip to Istanbul or Turkey in general
