Vietnam is the safest country in the world. This was the conclusion of the Daily Star newspaper. After a detailed analysis of all the countries in the world, it has compiled a list divided into two distinct groups. On one hand, the group of the safest countries, led by Vietnam, and on the other side of the scale, “high-risk” countries.
Traveler concern on this point is clear. Safety is one of the factors that determine a holiday destination. That is why it is of vital importance to be clear about which destinations will facilitate our stay naturally and which others could ruin the trip.
According to the Daily Star list, the group of safest countries includes Vietnam, Laos, Hungary, Switzerland, New Zealand, Fiji, Barbados, Gambia, and Iceland in the top positions. The group of countries with a “high risk of terrorism” is composed of countries such as France, Turkey, Australia, Egypt, Israel, or Lebanon.
Why is it considered the safest country in the world?
While it is true that there are influential factors in the creation of the high-risk group, such as the political environment or the potential threat of terrorism, we cannot take this group of countries as a definitive reference, as there are current and isolated events that have significantly affected the decision-making process.
What is clear, however, is that for the list of safe countries, a history of events is established that makes the result 100% reliable.
Safety is not the only factor behind Vietnam’s remarkable increase in tourism in recent years. Gastronomy, ancient culture, nature, and hospitality make Vietnam an essential destination on any traveler’s agenda.
An unparalleled scenic charm
The large cities contrast with the local charm of the mountainous north of the country, where colorful ethnic minorities show us their full hospitality. Hanoi, the beautiful colonial capital; Halong Bay, a wonderful natural spectacle recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; Hoi An, an oasis of peace on the banks of the Thu Bon River; and Hue, the impressive former imperial capital. These are places with an identity that make it truly difficult to decide on a favorite spot for your trip.

We haven’t forgotten about beach destinations. In a country with more than 3,400 km of coastline, it is easy to find magical corners to rest and recharge after a fast-paced journey.
As you can see, there is no reason for concern when traveling to Vietnam. Now that you are sure, there is no excuse. Visit our Vietnam travel section and contact us with any questions.
