1 mission of Greece in Zambia: Consulate General of Greece in Lusaka, Zambia. Addresses, phones and contacts.
Head of mission: Mr Takanori Okada, Honorary Consul General (as of 2015)
Greece is an appealing destination for some Zambians, thanks to its stunning islands, rich cultural heritage, and diverse landscapes that include beautiful beaches and mountains. Its blend of ancient history and modern charm attracts millions of tourists each year, making it a notable option for those seeking unique travel experiences.
Greece is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Zambia. It ranks 40th out of 160 countries on the Global Peace Index, indicating a relatively high level of safety. In comparison, Zambia ranks 55th. Regarding crime statistics, Greece has a significantly lower murder rate at 0.9 per 100,000 people, compared to Zambia's 5.4. While both countries have similar scores for mafia presence (3.0), Greece has higher indices for organized crime, indicating more challenges in that area. Overall, while there are some crime concerns in Greece, it is safer than Zambia in terms of violent crime and overall safety for tourists.
