There are plenty of dangerous travel destinations in the world. Even in Europe there is one or the other country that is considered to be somewhat dangerous by the “RiskMap”, which classifies countries according to security levels. It is also surprising that Germany is not one of the countries in which an insignificant threat rate is diagnosed, but one of the countries with the second lowest level “low”. Switzerland, the Baltic States, Luxembourg and Belgium are therefore safer than Germany. But it can also be really dangerous.

Adventure vacation in the most dangerous vacation countries in Africa

If you look to another continent, namely Africa, it is hardly surprising to find some dangerous countries there. The highest level of security is “extreme”. This applies in Somalia, parts of Sudan, Congo and Mali. There, the foreign ministries have issued the highest warning level for vacation and business travelers. Laws and statutes in these countries have been wholly or partially suspended and civil war is raging. If you still want to or have to travel to these countries, you should be careful and inform yourself beforehand exactly what the conditions are.

The African security risers include Morocco, Tunisia, Malawi and Mozambique. These countries have only been assessed with a low security risk. Thus there is hope of improvement even for the countries classified as extreme.

In the Middle East, conditions are the same as in parts of Africa

Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan and Palestine are also classified as extremely dangerous. There are sometimes civil war-like conditions in the country itself and between the countries. It is strongly advised not to travel to these countries. There are also safer areas, for example in the more rural areas, but it is still not safe.

Even more dangerous than in the war zone

It is known that the crime rate in the major cities of Latin America is one of the highest in the world. Nowhere else are so many people killed during the day as in Mexico City, Caracas, or Belém in Brazil. But things are even worse in Honduras, where an average of 159 out of 100,000 inhabitants are murdered. This means that more people are being murdered than in the war zones in the Middle East.

Unfortunately, it also hits the popular holiday destination of Mexico. A few years ago the country was classified as not very risky, according to the RiskMap level “low”. But in recent years gang wars between residents have increased so much that the north of the country has reached the second highest level of security.

In South America, you can only travel safely to Argentina, Chile and Paraguay.

If you want to travel to the risky countries, you can still do so in the country, because the situation there is almost as peaceful as it is in Germany.
