Vietnam is the "safest destination in Asia" in 2024

US travel guide Travel Off Path rates Vietnam as the safest destination in Asia to visit this year.

Safety is a top concern for people when traveling internationally, especially when many countries are experiencing conflict or security is reduced due to natural disasters. Asia is no exception.

"One country in particular has proven to be stable and safe for tourists. That is Vietnam," commented the US travel guide Travel Off Path.

Travel Off Path cited data from the Gallup Global Law and Order Index, a leading global analytics and advisory platform, released in late 2023. Vietnam ranked highest in Asia with a score of 92 out of 100, second in the world , after Tajikistan and tied with Finland, Iceland, Kuwait, Luxembourg, and Norway.

Travel news sites describe Vietnam as “the jewel of Southeast Asia”, “the most attractive destination in Asia” with beautiful nature and a culture completely different from many other countries. Experts also rate “Vietnam as more stable and safer than the US” when the US has a total score of 83 on Gallup.

When coming to Vietnam, except for food safety risks, tourists do not have to worry about pickpockets, assaults or being harassed by the authorities. In addition, those who love slow travel or have a low budget to travel all love this place.

“When traveling across Vietnam, you should definitely take the time to walk through the streets with bright yellow walls of Hoi An, a UNESCO-recognized world heritage site,” Travel Off Path wrote. In addition, experts have many compliments for the ancient capital of Hue with its mausoleums, temples and pagodas, and Da Nang and Mui Ne.

For tourists who love a vibrant holiday, Ho Chi Minh City or the bustling seaport in Nha Trang, the bustling capital Hanoi are suggestions. If you love nature, Ninh Binh is a famous destination that cannot be missed.

The American guidebook said that Vietnam has “countless places to explore” that never get boring. In addition, the relaxed visa policy also helps tourists have more time to visit and explore, which is also a plus point for Vietnam to be highly appreciated in the eyes of tourists.
