Is Rome Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Group travel

We were a group of 6 girls. Rome is a city like an open Museum, we were wondering all day, visiting museums and entering churches. It was a beautiful experience, a lot of walking but totally worth it. We were there only for 4 days so we didn't have the chance to see everything but we saw a lot of things. It has night life and everyone was super fun and friendly. We were staying outside of the city to a camping because we didn't found anything affordable close so it was a little bit difficult in that way but all in all we had a perfect time 💜 totally recommend ☺️

Solo travel

travelling solo in Rome felt safer than other large cities such as Milan or Naples. As long as you are aware of pick-pockets you shouldn’t face any problems, besides the usual cat-calling that you experience everywhere.

Group travel

Is it safe? Yes, but watch out for pickpockets in crowded areas, scams (like “free” bracelets), and be cautious at night, especially around Termini Station. Things to do •Colosseum & Roman Forum – Ancient history must-see. •Vatican City – St. Peter’s, Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums. •Trevi Fountain – Toss a coin for good luck. •Pantheon – Iconic Roman temple. •Piazza Navona – Lively square with fountains. •Trastevere – Charming streets & nightlife. •Villa Borghese – Beautiful park & gallery.

Solo travel

I felt surprisingly safe! I carried a backpack in metro and in all touristic areas and didn't encounter any problem. The food in Italy is less than ideal, in my humble opinion 😄 i have eaten better ice cream and pasta in my own country than in Italy. If you are a picky eater like me, i suggest keeping to Supermarket food. I stayed in the Mosaic Hostel, which is 10 minutes away from metro Termini. Be aware, Rome has high city tax 🥲 i payed 15 euro (for 3 nights).

Solo travel

Rome is my favorite trip so far. It was the most beautiful city, the people were very friendly and it had plenty of nature and history for lovers of travelling. It was such a beautiful experience, and of course the food was the best!

Solo travel

I felt super safe in Rome (good areas). Hard to meet solo travellers but maybe because I wasn’t in the right mindset at the time to be honest. The city is very lively there is always a lot to do! I absolutely adored my time.

Family travel

My trip to Rome was amazing! Me and my family spent 6 days in Rome visiting the highlights and I must say I felt like I lived there before, like I belong there. Felt home! I visited too many places to remember them all now but everything, the museums, the churches, the farmers market, the streets, the nature, the architecture... All beautiful and special! Did you know there's a pyramid in Rome? I just saw one and couldn't believe my eyes. On my next trip to Rome I will definitely get inside to explore and learn it's history, also I suggest that you go really early to the most famous places like church St. Peter in Vatican, the Colosseum or the Pantheon because the lines are long and it can take time to get in. Also, a good solution is to buy online the tickets so that you don't wait that long in line. Hope it helps see you :)

Family travel

Unfortunately, this was by far my least favorite vacation location. Everything was too expensive, the food was subpar & inauthentic, and the city was somewhat filthy… The actual historic sites were truly breathtaking, and definitely worth the visit. Personally, I have zero desire to return, but if I went to keep other travelers company, I’d prefer to stay anywhere in Italy outside the city & just pop in when we visit attractions.

Solo travel

I recently visited Rome, and it was an incredible experience ✨I felt safe throughout my trip, even when exploring the city late in the evening. For the must-see attractions, I highly recommend the Colosseum, Vatican City, and the Pantheon, and many more… each of them offers a unique glimpse into Rome’s rich history through the lens of it’s breathtaking views. What I may recommend is to skip the superrrr long waits at tourist traps like overcrowded cafes near tourist attractions. Instead, I’d go and enjoy a sip of coffee or gelato in a less touristy neighborhoods like .. Trastevere (?). Food lovers should definitely try carbonara, which is my ultimate fave. Budget-wise, well I’m always looking for the lowest price, so daily i spent around €35-50 (including accommodation with meals) and some entrance fees. I didn’t know about travel ladies back then 😅 I stayed in a cozy place near Piazza Navona, which I loved for its central location and lively atmosphere. Getting around was easy, cause most places are walkable. I took a bus only to bring me to the airport and back, that’s all. Generally for those, who don’t like walking, no worries, everything is affordable. I did historical sights in the morning, breakfast at the BnB, for dinner I went out on the days I didn’t pay much for the attractions. Be ready for a lot of enjoyable walking 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️ Rome exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return! ✨

Solo travel

My experience in Rome was great. I took some walking tours there using th GuruWalk app and met some solo travelers there as well. I stayed in a hostel, "Destination Rome". It was pretty good, clean, and in a nice location in 10 mins from the central train station. I would recommend buying tickets for the bus from the airport in advance, it's cheaper than the train.

Rome is overall safe but you may expierience some creepy dudes coming to talk to you. I've always explored the city during the night hours and I've found myself being pretty confident that nothing could happen to me as long as I was in a public place with people around.

Rome is quite safe and there's always people around even late at night. I live in a very quite area where I feel safe most of the time. I usually come back home at night from by using public transport and despite being alone, I have not experienced anything bad
