Austria offers a diverse array of cultural and natural attractions, making it an appealing destination for some Icelandic travelers. With its breathtaking Alpine scenery and the historic allure of Vienna, it stands out in European tourism. Given that around 100,000 Icelanders travel abroad annually, a portion of them may find Austria to be an attractive option.
Please answer the following question: How safe is Austria for tourists coming from Iceland?
Austria is generally a safe destination for tourists, including those from Iceland. It ranks 14th out of 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night, which is lower than Iceland's 3rd place ranking. However, according to the Global Peace Index, Austria is among the safest countries globally, holding the 3rd position out of 160 countries, comparable to Iceland. In terms of crime statistics, Austria has a murder rate of 0.7 per 100,000 people, slightly higher than Iceland's 0.5.
