Is Rome Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Family travel

We had a great family time. We went to Vatican City, which was a great experience for my mom. We needed to rent a car, so it was really safe and comfy for us since we heard the train wasn't that safe. Best decision ever—we were able to travel to other places in Italy.

Solo travel

What a city, amazing host, food, people everything was phenomenal, the coliseum was out of this world for sure it’s one of the most amazing cities I ever visited, my host chiara was the perfect fit she take me on a special night tour that I will never forget and I can’t wait to go back :)

Rome is beautiful but really really full… way to many people and way to touristic… also expensive ( mist if the time) and you really have to watch out not to fall for those tourist restaurants who aren’t good. The colosseum and palladium were really nice but too crowded and everyone just wanted to make pictures and pose…. Also everywhere was construction sites and the traffick really long and slow…. Sad that a so beautiful city gets so trashed. But i know that from berlin :) bwhat i can really recommend is the bengali food in some areas , they are authentic, cheap and delicious!!!!

Group travel

Rome is gorgeous. I would definitely recommend just walking around the city to get a feel for the atmosphere. Eat as much gelato as you possibly can and definitely check out the Vatican. I felt safe there when I was 17 with my group.

Rome was incredible! The weather was super hot, but always sunny. Each day had a low of 21-24°C, and a high of 30-35°C. We would go out for breakfast, walk around for an hour or two, go back to the apartment for aircon, and then would go out again and repeat for dinner too. Mostly because we got tired from walking so much, but also because of the heat. I felt safe, but I was travelling with my sister and her partner, I believe it would’ve been a little different without her boyfriend. The budget on food & drink together was about 20-30 euros per person, but it was amazing quality. We stayed in an air bnb around Parione, and it was a lovely spacious apartment. The buildings were old, so there were portable air-conditioners in every room, and it was a quiet area close to some main food & shopping spots. We walked everywhere and didn’t take any public transportation. It was hot but (we’re Aussie) it’s not that bad, and we love a walk (at least I do). It’s the best way to see some cool streets and find little hidden gem shops as well.

I went to Rome with my husbond and it was an amazing trip. Very crowded so we used taxi. The food is so good and you can eat inexpencive a little outside the centre. We had a wonderful stay and there is very much to see.

Solo travel

overrated, extremely hot, crowded... if you're going rome in summer please don't go. Everywhere is super close to each other, but even if you're going in the morning, there are so many people. getting lost in the monti, trastevere is a really good choice..

Solo travel

I felt extremely safe in Rome and I had a budget of 400€ for 4 days. I did this trip with an Austrian friend, we explored the city, visited the Colosseum, tried the local food, pizza, pasta, gelato and had an amazing time together

Family travel

I loved my experience in Rome with my family. We had a lot of fun and never felt unsafe even when walking around at night. Our Italian collectively was not the best but we were still able to get along just fine.

Solo travel

I was in Rome for about 4 days and really recommend it. I think 4-5 days is the perfect length to stay. The public transportation was very easy and affordable and I felt pretty safe as a female solo traveler. There is a lot to do and see.

walking around Rome at night is completely safe, but it depends from the zone. All of the areas are full of character and very lively, even after the sun goes down. Prati is the most safest area, but you have always to be prudent

I don't think it's the safest city, it's not safe to go around by yourself at night. Avoid the main train station at night (and be careful with pickpockets during the day), avoid metro stations at night
