safe to travel to Iran

If you hesitate to travel to Iran because of security and safety issues
you should know that according to Independent reports, Iran is as safe as the UK and SLOVENIA, DENMARK and SWITZERLAND.

Iranians are so hospitable and are not dangerous.

There is nothing to worry about when traveling to Iran.

Iran is as safe as the UK when it comes to security, according to a new interactive map showing the risk level around the world.

The 2019 Travel Risk Map launched by global risk experts International SOS in collaboration with Control Risks
shows the danger level in each country and territory based on the current threat posed to travellers by political violence
(including terrorism, insurgency, politically motivated unrest and war), social unrest (including sectarian, communal and ethnic violence) and violent and petty crime.

Factors such as the robustness of the transport infrastructure, the state of industrial relations
the effectiveness of the security and emergency services and the country’s susceptibility to natural disasters are also taken into consideration.

Travel Risk Map

The map lists five categories of risk: insignificant, low, medium, high and extreme.

Very few countries manage to make it into the “insignificant” bracket;
in Europe, only Luxembourg, Denmark, Slovenia, Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Iceland and Greenland are put in this category.

The majority of European countries are deemed low risk, including the UK;
as are Iran, Jordan, Oman, Qatar, the UAE, Kuwait, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Uzbekistan in the Middle East.(safe to travel to Iran)

Canada, the US, Australia and New Zealand are all low risk too.

“Extreme” risk countries are almost exclusively in Africa and the Middle East, including Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya, South Sudan and Somalia.
