Kuwait offers a unique blend of tourism attractions, reflecting its growing significance in global affairs. Although it attracts fewer foreign tourists than neighboring countries, the high spending per visitor indicates that it caters to affluent travelers seeking luxury experiences. Given that around 600,000 Moroccans travel abroad annually, a portion of them may find Kuwait an appealing destination.
Kuwait is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Morocco. According to the Global Peace Index, Kuwait ranks 25th out of 160 countries, indicating a higher level of safety compared to Morocco, which ranks 76th. In terms of crime rates, Kuwait has a significantly lower murder rate of 0.3 per 100,000 people, compared to Morocco's 1.9. While the female murder rate is higher in Kuwait at 1.1 compared to Morocco's 0.5, overall violent crime remains low. The Global Organized Crime Index shows that both countries have similar scores for mafia groups (1.0), but Kuwait has lower scores for crime networks (6.0 vs. Morocco's 6.5) and state crime (6.0 vs. Morocco's 7.0). However, Kuwait faces challenges with human trafficking (8.0) compared to Morocco (5.5). Overall, while both countries have their issues, Kuwait is statistically safer for tourists than Morocco.
