Is Naples Safe for Solo Female Travelers?

Group travel

Went there as an Erasmus+ student when i was in highschool. It was a great experience with the people i met, foods i tried i loved them all. They taught us tarantelle we sang together, danced together. So fun

I read so much negative comments about how dangerous it is for solo women travelers to visit Naples. Don’t believe them! It’s a beautiful and safe city. Just don’t go around train station alone at night

Let me lead with this may be unpopular opinion: may be one of my least favorite places I've visited. Hear me out! Pros: BEAUTIFUL. Truly breathtaking in the area. Great food. I think everything we ate was superb. Pretty affordable. There are some tourist trap-y spaces but overall we found it very affordable. Cons: Probably some of the rudest people I'VE met. (I promise I'm an annoying American trying to own every space!) Kind of unsafe in terms of female travel/general safety. (My best friend...

Great city with lively atmosphere, safer than I thought. Very budget friendly with tasty food, drinks and deserts. You can easily get around and to the near by attractions such as Pompeii and coast cities like Sorento.

Solo travel

Great food, be careful to do your research though and not go to the first place you see! As the main tourist places are expensive and not as good 👍 Lots of fun stalls on the street and chapels etc. The best things are eating, shopping and sightseeing. Deffo go to Pompeii if you can!!

I fell in love with Napoli! diverse, contrasting, a pearl of history with three volcanoes. the birthplace of pizza! if you search for information about Naples on Google, you will find little good. yes, there are areas where you need to be careful, you need to watch yourself and your wallet. But isn't it the same in Rome or Barcelona? If you're going there, don't go for one day, and better not for two. You can climb Vesuvius. Hiking on a volcano! Wow, right? you can drop by Pompeii for a couple...

We went to Naples with my friends from high school, a group of 6 girls. We had an awesome time, everybody kept saying to us not to rent close to the train station but after all there was the cheapest option and the one we could afford. We only stayed for 3-4 days so I don't have Many reccomendations but we had discovered a bar near our place that we spend every night, the people were warm and even if we didn't spoke the language somehow we were able to communicate 💜 I would totally recommend ☺️

Hi girls !! I spent a month near Naples and had the opportunity to visit the city several times. I always felt safe there, but I never experienced the nightlife. Don't bother going to the vintage market in Ercolano, it's just a street with a few thrift shops. Don't miss the historic center, where prices are the cheapest for food and gift shops, and you must also visit the Spanish Quarter!

It is a beautiful city especially. The trip is so much better when you add Sorento or Positano to the route. I was fine traveling with my friends. But some of my friends had some unfortunate incidents in the city so I suggest you to be very careful. But there is a lot to see and a lot to eat. Probably the best pizza I’ve ever eaten in Italy. You’ll have a great time as long as you’re careful.

I felt safe because I was not alone. There are many things to see such as the sea, Vesuvius, Pompeii, many churches, wonderful squares and also beautiful sights. For those who love nightlife there are many bars and discos. Our budget was 500€ per one for 1 week, there are many accomodations on booking.it It is well served by public transport, the food is very good but not very cheap( make the booking before to go on a restaurant or pizzeria if you don't want do a very long line)

Naples is not dangerous in a high-risk sense, but it is a high “petty crime awareness” city. If you behave normally and stay alert in busy areas, it’s very manageable. Many travelers actually end up loving it because it feels lively, authentic, and intense—but not unsafe if you’re street-smart.

Soo, trying to be objective, I don’t think Naples is that unsafe tbh, especially the historic center. I would however suggest to avoid, even during the day, especially as a girl, piazza garibaldi and the whole train station area. I know it’s cheap but girls, really, don’t stay there. Secondly I would just suggest not to underestimate at night the narrow characteristic streets of the center. It may not look that bad going through some of those streets, and often nothing happens, but recent...

Compared with a few years ago, when the city was notorious for its high crime rates, the situation has improved somewhat thanks to the growth of tourism. That said, there are still certain areas where it’s best to be cautious, such as the area around the central station and Corso Umberto, especially at night. In general, it’s advisable to keep a close eye on your personal belongings and remain aware of the items you’re carrying. Pickpocketing is not uncommon, and phones or wallets can...

It’s very safe you just have to take care of your things and be aware of your surroundings. In the daytime it’s always safe but at the night I’d avoid the garibaldi station area. Thats the only thing.

I lived in Naples for at least 5 years; if you're in the company of men, nothing should happen, but if you're with women, you need to be a little cautious when going out at night. During the day, it's not dangerous; you just need to be careful when going to more populated or otherwise famous areas, because of pickpockets who might put their hands in your jacket pockets or backpacks. I always recommend not being alone; if you're alone during the day, nothing happens, but in the evening, you have...

i live in Naples and it's pretty safe if you know how to have confidence walking down the streets. Basically it's like "don't let the others give the impression of being a tourist", and it implies even in my own city.
