Safest Countries to Travel in 2026

We averaged the Tripvey Safety Score across every city we track and ranked the results by country.

Score: 0–10·Higher = Safer·How we score

Safety is never a single number. But when you're staring at a map trying to pick your next trip, you have to start somewhere. So we did the boring part for you: we took the Safety Score for every city in our database and averaged it by country.

One thing to keep in mind before you scroll. A high score here means a place tends to have low reported crime, few scams aimed at tourists, and healthcare you can actually rely on. It does notmean nothing ever goes wrong, or that one rough neighbourhood can't buck the national average. Treat this as a starting point — then read the city pages, and check your government's travel advisory before you book.

Topping the list this year is 🇱🇮 Liechtenstein, averaging 9.6/10 across 1 city we track.
