I visited Verona 2 years ago for a school project. I stayed there for 4 nights and during my stay I felt very safe. The food and the water was quite expensive (in Greece is cheaper) but its was good. We had great time there visiting museums, and Romeo and Juliet house. It was kinda difficult to find open place to eat in afternoon or at evening but I suppose that’s how it’s works in Italy

I went to Verona to visit a friend and while he was working I got to run around the city centre and some of the surrounding areas. I was hot, and when I say hot I mean hot hot! Personally I'm a person how gets sunburnt so fast so I really had to be careful but I was definitely worth a visit so many different people and just listening to the passionate Italian on the streets made me happy! LOVED IT 💗
Posted: March 12, 2024Experienced: June, 2023I had a really good time in Verona last year. The city is beautiful and there is a lot to see. I stayed for 3 days and simply wandered around the streets of the city center to see where it would lead me. I recommend taking advantage of the Verona card, it costs 26 euros and gives you access to all tourist attractions, allows you to skip lines, and you can also use it on city buses for two days. If you get away from the main squares, food and drinks become cheaper. I was there in September last year and I felt very safe.
Posted: September 12, 2023I traveled alone to Verona and chose a one-day trip to Lake Garda. I really enjoyed it and felt completely safe. Verona is a beautiful city. I stayed right in the center and didn't venture too far from my accommodation at night. I used trains from Verona to Lake Garda and had no problems buying tickets online. I don't speak Italian, but I didn't encounter any problems.

I think Verona is quite a safe city overall, I don’t live in the city though but each time that I go there I can walk around safely without needing to constantly check out my surroundings. Of course I suggest you to not go around with your bag open or leaving things on the table, because pickpockets are everywhere (even tough sometimes you can find really good people) Hope this helps you to understand better how safe the city is and looking forward to meet you eventually!

Verona city is always very safe in the day. Crimes are not so common, I don't know people who has being robbed. Be aware in the bus for phone and wallet but it's really rare to get robbed. During late night is a lot quiet, and you don't find many people hanging around. Some areas can be frequented by some annoying people, but they're usually not dangerous. The stations aren't very safe at night, should avoid little dark streets. Sometimes in the night you can find fascist messing around, they are usually young people dressed all black (there's a fascist group called "Il Mastino". Stay away from them
Posted: April 26, 2025Verona is a quite safe city although it has, like every city, its ups and downs. I personally feel safe navigating it, although there is occasional cat calling and in certain areas you have to be more cautious (like for example venti settembre street, the porta nuova train station and the porta vescovo train station).
Posted: January 23, 2025It’s safe because it’s a small town. You can walk alone through the streets and feel safe because there is always someone. Also public transports are safe. Of course some neighbourhoods are better than others but I’m happy to show you around.
Posted: January 19, 2025Verona is quite safe, of course there are some areas that is better to avoid after dark like the bus station and the train station as there are a lot of homeless people and drug sellers going around, but I happened to be forced to stay in those areas one night to wait for a flixbus and beside having anxiety for could have happened, actually nothing happened and no one talked to me. Sometimes there is police around to check the area. Inside the city on the other hand I always feel safe.
