Estonia is an appealing destination for some visitors from North Macedonia, thanks to its unique blend of cultural and natural attractions. With its medieval architecture in Tallinn and pristine countryside, the country draws around 800,000 international tourists each year. This charm may resonate with a segment of the 2 million people in North Macedonia.
Estonia is considered one of the safest countries in Europe for tourists, ranking 4th out of 40 countries for safety while walking alone at night, significantly safer than North Macedonia, which ranks 17th. According to the Global Peace Index, Estonia ranks 24th out of 160 countries, again safer than North Macedonia, which is ranked 38th. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in North Macedonia is 1.2 per 100,000 people, while in Estonia it is slightly higher at 2.0. However, organized crime indices indicate that Estonia generally has lower levels of organized crime compared to North Macedonia, with better scores in areas such as state crime and human trafficking. Overall, tourists from North Macedonia can expect a relatively safe experience in Estonia, with lower risks associated with violent crime and organized crime.
