In the article “This is the safest country in Asia to visit in 2024” published on January 2, Travel off Path said that for Americans, safety is the top factor when choosing to travel abroad, especially in the current situation, conflicts are still breaking out in many places and security is declining in some destinations. In that context, according to Travel off Path, “there is one country in particular that has proven to be quite stable and safe for tourists” and that is Vietnam. The leading US travel website cited data from the Global Law and Order Index Ranking showing that Vietnam is not only the safest country in Asia with a score of 92/100, but also in the top 7 in the world.![]() |

Vietnam is the safest country in Asia Travel off Path believes that when Covid-19 restrictions are completely lifted, 2024 will definitely be the year that Asian tourism will fully recover. Western tourists will return to this friendly continent from multicultural Malaysia to Indonesia and countless paradise islands and destinations in the region will witness growth rates similar to the pre-pandemic period. This travel site affirms: "All eyes are on Vietnam - the jewel of Southeast Asia, having gone through a long history and proudly possessing beautiful natural landscapes and the most diverse and attractive cultures". Rising from war 5 decades ago, Vietnam is now a prosperous and peaceful country, with low crime rates and surprisingly stable politics. Travel Off Path rates Vietnam as having a safer environment than many other countries in Europe and the US - where violence rates tend to increase.![]() |

However, this travel site also believes that, in addition to the above safety factors, Vietnam still has food safety risks. However, tourists can completely minimize this risk if they “take certain precautions, such as following local guidelines and eating at reputable restaurants”. Vietnam is one of the most attractive destinations in Asia. According to Travel off Path, in terms of tourism advantages, "Vietnam is an ideal destination for those who love slow travel and love connecting with nature, being exposed to a completely new culture, especially for tourists in the northern hemisphere".

When traveling from North to South or vice versa in Vietnam, Travel Off Path recommends that visitors should definitely take the time to stroll along the charming golden streets of Hoi An - a UNESCO World Heritage Site, featuring historic temples, pagodas and ancient architecture. In addition, Hue - an attractive destination in the central region, home to the famous Hue Citadel, which bears the mark of Vietnam's glorious historical period. The beautiful beaches in Da Nang and Son Tra Nature Reserve, or the white sand dunes, golden sand dunes, and coastal fishing villages in Mui Ne are all attractive stops. From the vibrant atmosphere in Ho Chi Minh City, the bustling seaport of Nha Trang or Hanoi - the thousand-year-old capital of culture, to the wild and poetic beauty of Ninh Binh, famous for its rice fields and majestic geological formations, "your 'to-do' list when exploring this country will never be exhausted", the American travel site commented. Travel off Path pays special attention to Vietnam's new visa policy for tourists when emphasizing: With the new open visa policy approved by the Vietnamese Government extending the temporary stay period from 30 days to 90 days for citizens of various countries, tourists can stay in Vietnam longer to enjoy nature, experience culture, get to know local people...
