Rome is a very attractive city where you can discover the italian culture very well. People here are really nice and sociable. As a person from minorities I did not experienced racism and I also met many people of my culture (Arabic)

It is a highly recommended city, there is so much to see, museums, parks, monuments. The food scene is also very enjoyable and the people are charming. I will definitely visit again, I still have places to see.
Posted: August 11, 2025I didnt feel safe walking around at night and the city smelt of trash. There was graffiti everywhere and the streets are covered with people just trying to scam you into paying €50 for a small piece of plastic

I visited Rome in Sep/2024 and had a wonderful time! I felt very safe overall, especially during the day. I was mostly in central areas, and even at night, I didn’t experience anything uncomfortable. Just stay alert around tourist hotspots for pickpocketing. Definitely visit the Colosseum, Vatican Museums, and Trevi Fountain. I also loved walking through Trastevere, it felt local and charming. I would skip overly crowded restaurants near main attractions; they’re overpriced and less authentic.

We all absolutely loved Rome! We were unsure going into it because of how much negatives you see about Rome, but we had the best time. We felt safe, the food was great, and the weather in February was amazing. We all do extensive research and made sure to avoid tourist traps, so maybe that’s why we had the best time!

Rome has a lot of pickpockets and certain areas like near Termini station and Cornelia station are quite dangerous at night - you definitely wouldn’t go there alone. I wouldn’t really walk alone at night and you have to be hyper aware of your surroundings and belongings when walking around to avoid pickpockets
