Frequently asked questions
How attractive is South Sudan as a destination for visitors from Austria?
South Sudan offers untapped potential and natural beauty, making it an emerging destination for tourists. As a young nation, its hospitality sector is developing but shows promise. While it may attract a niche audience, a portion of the 7.5 million Austrians who travel abroad annually could find South Sudan appealing.
Please answer the following question: How safe is South Sudan for tourists coming from Austria?
South Sudan is generally considered unsafe for tourists, including those from Austria. While Austria ranks 3rd in the Global Peace Index and has a low murder rate of 0.7 per 100,000 people, South Sudan ranks 158th out of 160 countries, with a significantly higher murder rate of 14.9. Crime statistics further illustrate the disparity: Austria has low indices for organized crime, while South Sudan scores much higher, indicating greater risks. For example, South Sudan has high scores in areas such as state crime (9.0) and crime networks (8.0), compared to Austria's scores of 4.0 and 4.0, respectively. Given these factors, tourists should exercise extreme caution and consider travel advisories before visiting South Sudan.
