After travelling all around Italy for almost a year I decided to see Rome. I got absolutely disappointed. To me it's the least Italian city I've ever been to, a huge amusement park for tourists. Those magnificent monuments and churches don't impress after you've lived in Florence and Palermo, overpriced everything and crowds are not justified by anything. I would not recommend staying there for more than 2 days. I didn't get pickpocketed or scammed because of previous experiences that taught me...

Amazing city!!! I loved it ! Book the coliseum for early in the morning and then the other visits for later (Forum and Pal..) so you'll enjoy them with plenty of time. Go to the restroom in each place you visit because there are no public bathrooms. Book the Vatican museum for early morning ..there is a lot to see and enjoy, not only the sixteen chapel. Walk the city.. it will surprise you

I can recommend visiting Rome at the end of February. The weather is already around 15 degrees in the afternoon, so it is very pleasant to do the sightseeing. You have to book in advance the visit at the Colosseum, Villa Borghese and Musei Vaticani. You also have to book the restaurant Rifugio Romano! For the rest, improvise.:)

I even was able to use public transpor alone at 4 a.m. after the club. I felt safe and had alot fun in the city. The people were kind and helpful. I miss their helpful energy. Will definitely go again
Posted: June 12, 2026Kinda unsafe, I got sexually harassed by creep in the street, he was jerking off on me while walking and i just freaked out and couldn’t do anything, I was freeze. I told him I’m gonna call police but he didn’t give a shit and just continue doing his disgusting stuff

Rome generally felt safe to me. I walk home a lot at night and mostly it's worked out well, just that some parts of the city can be surprisingly dark. Beware of pickpockets in touristic areas during the day and in the termini area risk of getting robbed when walking home after going out.
Posted: April 23, 2026Rome is a safe city overall but very crowded. Make sure to have your phone and wallets always secured. There are a lot of pickpockets around (especially in public transport like the subway). Avoid Termini station and San Lorenzo area at night by yourself.
