Lithuania is generally considered safe for tourists, including those from Egypt. It ranks 31st out of 160 countries on the Global Peace Index, indicating a relatively high level of safety, especially compared to Egypt, which ranks 103rd. In terms of crime, both Lithuania and Egypt have similar murder rates of 2.6 per 100,000 people. However, Lithuania has a higher rate of female murders at 1.5 compared to Egypt's 0.5. When looking at organized crime, Lithuania scores better in several areas, such as human trafficking and arms trafficking, where it ranks lower (indicating less crime) than Egypt. Overall, while no destination is without risk, Lithuania is considered safer than Egypt, making it a favorable choice for tourists.
