The Netherlands is an appealing destination for many visitors from Luxembourg, thanks to its famous canals, tulip fields, windmills, and historic cities. With a mix of urban sophistication and rustic charm, it attracts millions annually. Given that 1.8 million Luxembourgers travel abroad each year, a portion of them is likely to consider the Netherlands for their travels.
The Netherlands is considered one of the safest countries in Europe for tourists, ranking 9th out of 40 countries in terms of safety when walking alone at night, significantly safer than Luxembourg, which ranks 27th. According to the Global Peace Index, the Netherlands is ranked 18th among 160 countries globally, although there is no data available for Luxembourg. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in the Netherlands is 0.7 per 100,000 people, slightly higher than Luxembourg's rate of 0.6. However, the Netherlands has a higher incidence of certain organized crimes compared to Luxembourg, with indices indicating more significant challenges in areas like human trafficking and drug trade. Overall, while there are some crime concerns, the Netherlands remains a safe destination for tourists from Luxembourg.
