Rome was very overwhelming in a good way. There where so many people walking on the streets and so much to see. I traveled with 3 other women in my family and I felt more safe than I would in the United States. It’s a very big and crowded city so I would be careful with you belongings. If you are religious I highly recommend St. Paul’s basilica outside the wall and the cathedral of Loyola.

I felt very safe in Rome. Travelling around on public transport was easy. The food was delicious. The only hassle we had was with street sellers telling us spb-stories to get us to buy their wares. Also beware of the hotel tax at the end of your holiday! Rome itself was beautiful. Lots of things in walking distance from eachother. Hire a bike and have fun!

It's very easy to get around Rome on foot or by public transport. I stayed in a very affordable apartement-hotel next to the Fountain of Trevi. I reccomend visiting the Borghese Gallery and a day trip to the Villa d'Este in Tivoli. Rome was pretty safe, as was my trip to Tivoli (but I used to go back to the hotel pretty early as I was tired from all the visiting).
Posted: January 28, 2024Experienced: March, 2018I felt safe! Many things to do—loved the Vatican & St. Peter’s Basilica. The food was delicious! My budget was aided by those I went with. I stayed in an Airbnb on Via Flavia, I believe. I took the bus, and it was extremely accessible.
Posted: January 26, 2024Roma is a safe city and altough I visited in October it was verry crowded. We stayed at an AirBnb apartment, used the subway for getting around and did very long walks. Vibrant city, I recommend local family owned restaurants.
Posted: January 19, 2024I felt unsafe in some suburban parts of the city and in public transport. There were a lot of drunk men around at night. But it was fine during the day. There are plenty of things to do, I recommend booking all the attractions far in advance. Prices are pretty high for someone coming from a not so rich country, but I ate a lot food from the supermarket so it was ok. I stayed in an apartment that was in a kinda poor neighbourhoud with a lot of arabs living in bad conditions so it was shocking to see all that. I used metro and it pays off if you buy a ticket for a few days.
Posted: December 28, 2023I traveled alone and felt very safe in Rome. I familiarized myself with the area where my hostel was located during the day, so I felt comfortable moving around without constantly looking at my phone. What helped me connect with the locals was attempting to speak Italian, as well as meeting other travelers on walking tours and in my hostel.
Posted: November 8, 2023I loved Rome and felt very safe there. I booked a "Rome on a Vespa" tour on Viator, which was amazing. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip. I also did a full-day tour of the Vatican and Colosseum. A lot of walking, but it was worth seeing. The restaurants I loved: Osteria Da Fortunata, Piccolo Buco and Tonnarello.
Posted: October 18, 2023I went to Rome alone and it was amazing. The Colosseum and the Villa Borghese gardens were my favorites. I used public transportation while I was there and felt safe the whole time.

Rome it’s not very safe if you walk around alone in the dark. You can travel via bus in the day but in the dark it could be better if you pay attention. Anyway there are place Safier than other. It’s better if you are with other people and not alone.

I feel very safe in Rome as a female traveler, though it is important to always be mindful of your surroundings, especially on public transport. Me and my friends have never had any experiences with theft or pick pocketing.

It was really good experience for us. I wanna go back to Roma again. I fell in love with this city! I tried so many kinds of pizza and pasta. They were delicious 😍😍 We had only 2 days in Roma, I think its not enough time for us. I wanna stay for 1 week, maybe later? :))
Posted: April 25, 2024Experienced: March, 2024The bus was not always reliable especially at night. I would recommend another way to travel at night (a scooter maybe) We stayed at an Airbnb. Less expensive to share among 4 people, it could be expensive for a solo traveler or a couple. If you plan to visit the famous seeing sites, you need to plan ahead and make reservation. The pass seems to be a good deal. We didn't plan the trip till one month before and we had to get into a guided group in order to enter the sites. Plenty good food everywhere. Might be more difficult for vegans.

Just moved to Rome from Florida. Traveling Europe for a bitty. Looking forward to making new connections ☺️ I graduated with a software engineering degree last year after spending yearssss working three jobs while going to school full time, so I am just out here seizing all opportunities to passionately enjoy being alive. Things I like to do when traveling: Eat good food, have a nice cocktail at a rooftop bar or get a bird's eye view, hike a trail or simply wander city streets, enjoy a botanical garden, go to a museum, danceeeeee, check out a live music event, and meet new people!
