Finland offers a compelling blend of stunning landscapes and rich culture, making it an appealing destination for some Sudanese travelers. Although tourist arrivals have fluctuated recently, the country's unique attractions could resonate with a segment of Sudan's 47 million population.
Finland is considered a very safe destination for tourists, including those coming from Sudan. It ranks 8th among 40 European countries for safety while walking alone at night, and it is 13th out of 160 countries in the Global Peace Index, indicating a high level of safety compared to Sudan, which ranks 159th. In terms of crime statistics, Finland has a low murder rate of 1.6 per 100,000 people, significantly lower than Sudan's rate of 5.1. Additionally, Finland scores better across various organized crime indices, with lower scores indicating less crime. For example, Finland's state crime index is 1.5 compared to Sudan's 8.0, and its human trafficking score is 3.0 versus Sudan's 8.0. Overall, tourists from Sudan can expect a much safer environment in Finland.
