We went to Naples with my friends from high school, a group of 6 girls. We had an awesome time, everybody kept saying to us not to rent close to the train station but after all there was the cheapest option and the one we could afford. We only stayed for 3-4 days so I don't have Many reccomendations but we had discovered a bar near our place that we spend every night, the people were warm and even if we didn't spoke the language somehow we were able to communicate 💜 I would totally recommend ☺️

Hi girls !! I spent a month near Naples and had the opportunity to visit the city several times. I always felt safe there, but I never experienced the nightlife. Don't bother going to the vintage market in Ercolano, it's just a street with a few thrift shops. Don't miss the historic center, where prices are the cheapest for food and gift shops, and you must also visit the Spanish Quarter!
Posted: March 7, 2025Experienced: January, 2025It is a beautiful city especially. The trip is so much better when you add Sorento or Positano to the route. I was fine traveling with my friends. But some of my friends had some unfortunate incidents in the city so I suggest you to be very careful. But there is a lot to see and a lot to eat. Probably the best pizza I’ve ever eaten in Italy. You’ll have a great time as long as you’re careful.

I felt safe because I was not alone. There are many things to see such as the sea, Vesuvius, Pompeii, many churches, wonderful squares and also beautiful sights. For those who love nightlife there are many bars and discos. Our budget was 500€ per one for 1 week, there are many accomodations on booking.it It is well served by public transport, the food is very good but not very cheap( make the booking before to go on a restaurant or pizzeria if you don't want do a very long line)
Posted: January 13, 2025I liked Naples, I was at a great hotel with a lot of travelers. The only time when I didn't feel safe us when I heard that another woman staying at my hotel was strangled by a robber trying to rob her purse until her male friend came and the robber took off. Nothing happened to me or her except for shock but it made me feel less safe there, especially at night.

The attractions were amazing. Pompeii, Herculaneum, Vesuvius, catacombs, st. Elmo… and they have big discounts for <25

I lived in Naples for at least 5 years; if you're in the company of men, nothing should happen, but if you're with women, you need to be a little cautious when going out at night. During the day, it's not dangerous; you just need to be careful when going to more populated or otherwise famous areas, because of pickpockets who might put their hands in your jacket pockets or backpacks. I always recommend not being alone; if you're alone during the day, nothing happens, but in the evening, you have to be very careful.
Posted: April 23, 2025i live in Naples and it's pretty safe if you know how to have confidence walking down the streets. Basically it's like "don't let the others give the impression of being a tourist", and it implies even in my own city.
