Sweden is an appealing destination for some Bahraini visitors, thanks to its stunning landscapes and lively cities, as well as a strong tourism infrastructure. While it attracts a modest number of international tourists, its reputation as a quality destination may resonate with a segment of the 500,000 Bahrainis who travel abroad annually.
Sweden is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Bahrain. According to the Global Peace Index, Sweden ranks 39th out of 160 countries, indicating a relatively high level of safety compared to Bahrain, which ranks 79th. In terms of crime statistics, Sweden has a murder rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people, while Bahrain has a significantly lower rate of 0.1. Additionally, Sweden's organized crime index scores suggest a moderate level of organized crime, with various indices indicating that Bahrain has some areas of concern, particularly in human trafficking and resource crime. While Sweden may not be the safest country in Europe, it is still safer than Bahrain in many respects. Tourists should exercise common sense and stay aware of their surroundings, as they would in any country.
