These days it seems as though terror attacks happen everywhere. With recent attacks in the U.S., France, Germany, and England, you may be wondering if it is safe to travel anywhere. The answer to that question is yes. Terror attacks in these countries are infrequent, but if you are still concerned visit one of these safest places to travel in the world.
Switzerland
Switzerland has always been known as the safe haven of Europe. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office of the U.K. government lists Switzerland with a low chance of terrorist activity. Additionally, a 2015 study of the Safest Cities ranked Switzerland as the 7th safest.
With snow covered mountain peaks, lakes, and plenty of hiking trails, Switzerland is an excellent choice for anyone who loves the great outdoors. If you are a foodie, the cuisine here will not disappoint. Be sure to try to some famous Swiss chocolate while visiting here, too.
Fiji
If you would rather spend your vacation lounging on pristine white sand beaches and soaking up the sun in safety, Fiji is an excellent choice. With a low threat of terrorism, you can relax and enjoy any of Fiji’s 333 beaches.
Fiji is a diver’s paradise, with its clear waters, gorgeous coral reefs, and unparalleled biodiversity. If you would rather stay above the surface, you can take in the beauty of Fiji’s waterfalls; explore rivers on raft rides, and so much more.
Ireland
Like Switzerland and Fiji, Ireland has a low threat of terrorism. It is a beautiful country filled with rich culture and history. From ancient castles to kissing the Blarney Stone to touring the scenic landscape, Ireland offers something for every traveler.
