Is Rome Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Solo travel experience

The experience of traveling to Rome, Italy was truly incredible and extraordinary. For me traveling as a single girl, everything was wonderful and under security. I went to different restaurants in Rome, Italy. I visited the amphitheater and the Colosseum, I visited the Vatican City Museum. Various and very good foods in Italy, including pizza and pasta. In the meantime, I recommend pizzeria located in Piazze del Popolo. I stayed in an old boutique hotel in the old part of the city. I avoided shopping on my trip and didn't buy much at all except for a few magnets and souvenirs so my total trip and the money I spent there was not over 300 Euro. Usually I used to go by taxi, but the taxi was very expensive and at least a taxi would be 10 euros, but I could also choose the nearest metro station and use the metro, also there are city transports like bus.

Solo travel experience

I traveled solo and felt very safe in Rome. I familiarized myself with the neighborhood my hostel was in during the day so I felt comfortable getting around without having to look at my phone constantly. What helped me connect with locals was making an effort to speak Italian and I met other travelers on walking tours and at my hostel.

Solo travel experience

I was in Rome this year in January on a solo trip. I stayed in a hotel right in the center, on Via Nazionale. I walked all day and half the evening, returning very late to the hotel, and nothing happened to me, although I avoided small, dark streets after dark.

I loved Rome and felt very safe. I booked a "Rome by Vespa" tour on Viator which was incredible. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip. Also did a full-day tour of The Vatican and Colosseum. Lots of walking but great to see. Restaurants that I loved: Osteria Da Fortunata, Piccolo Buco and Tonnarello.

Solo travel experience

I did 5 days in Rome and thought it was plenty. It’s such a gorgeous city that just wandering around is so fun. Some of the well-known places are free and I recommend: the Trevi fountain, the outside of the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Monument to Victor Emmanuel III, and the Spanish Steps. Castel Sant’Angelo, Colosseum, and Vatican Museum are probably my three absolute must-do in Rome which you need to pay for.

Solo travel experience

I went to Rome by myself and it was amazing. The Colosseum and Villa Borghese gardens were my favorite. I took public transportation while I was there and felt safe the whole time.

Solo travel experience

I was there solo last summer. I recommend hanging out and walking around the streets of Trastevere at night, very nice atmosphere and different options from cafés to clubs or sitting on some steps watching street artists. I personally felt safe in Rome.

Truly a beautiful city, there is something to see behind every corner. Me being Italian I enjoyed it all, from the food to the history and attractions, even though something mes it may seem not so clean.

Don’t get gelato from the gelato places right off from big tourist spots. They are expensive and super airy. Find the places that are hidden a few streets and corners away from the tourist sites. The gelato won’t be piled up huge. Those are the places you will want to get it.
