Sudan offers a unique blend of historical richness and archaeological wonders, making it an appealing destination for some Lebanese visitors. Its mix of ancient heritage and modern attractions could attract a segment of Lebanon's population of 6 million.
Sudan is generally considered less safe for tourists compared to Lebanon. According to the Global Peace Index, Sudan ranks 159th out of 160 countries, while Lebanon is ranked 132nd. The murder rate in Sudan is higher at 5.1 per 100,000 people compared to Lebanon's 1.9. In terms of organized crime, both countries have similar indices, but Sudan tends to score slightly worse in several categories, such as crime networks and human smuggling. For instance, Sudan has a crime network index of 7.5 compared to Lebanon's 7.0. Overall, tourists from Lebanon should exercise caution when considering travel to Sudan due to these safety concerns.
