Is Rome Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

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.

I have been to Rome more then once, but the last time I went by myself for the first time. I felt quite safe in the crowded streets of this iconic city, but I did get catcalled sometimes and one should keep their belongings close. Rome is known for its Piazzas and Fountains, as well as the Colosseum and the Vatican (among other things). I especially love art galleries and museums, so I would recommend the Museo di Roma but also the IKONO Roma. Otherwise you should be aware that this is a very crowded city where a lot of tourists pass through each day, so if you for example want to get close to the Trevi Fountain maybe go in the morning. When you have the opportnuity, visit Rome between December and March, as it is less crowded then. Also enjoy the food, I especially love the new invention of ice cream in sweet bread.:)

Group travel

during my time in rome this summer i mostly felt safe because i wasnt alone but rather with few of my friends and we did not really spend time in unsafe areas, mostly just somewhere around in the coty centre and the experience was really nice,

Rome feels relatively safe, but pickpocketing is common in crowded areas, so stay alert on public transport, around Termini Station, and major attractions like the Colosseum or Vatican. Stick to well-lit areas at night and avoid overly isolated spots. During a week in Rome, highlights include the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill for ancient history lovers. The Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica are must-visits for art and religious history. Costs for a week depend on your style of travel. Budget travelers can manage €600–€900 with hostels and cheap eats. Rome offers excellent food, history, and vibrant streets, making it a memorable destination.

Felt very safe, of course there were stares as being a woman comes with, but kept my head up and no one bothered me unless I spoke to them. Such a beautiful time to go because of all the Christmas markets and lights up everywhere, and I also really enjoyed the people I met at the hostels I stayed at.

Group travel

I recommend you to book some experience in advance because there are many many people in there. Also, is good to just walk around the city for move yourself from a place to another. The city is just beautiful. You can feel quite safe but anyway pay attention, there are many tourists 🤷🏻‍♀️

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.

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!!!!

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.

I think it’s kinda safe, you can walk around tame the bus and having no problem during the day especially if you are in the center you should not have many problem. During the night it became a bit more dangerous and actually being alone scares me. Anyway I recommend to non to go in the Est of Rome or the extremely south west or Est, the center/ north center/ south center are definitely safer. Anyway Rome is one of the most beautiful city in the world the history and the art that you can see when you walk around is Wow . And also the cuisine☺️

Rome is definetly unsafe. Of course it depends on the neighborhood you are, but being a big city It Is common to meet lot of people looking for someone innocent to trick. However I think Rome Is not far different from the other big cities so if you already live in one of them you shouldn't be scared. If you don't you just have to pay high attention and not trust strangers.
