South Sudan offers untapped potential and natural beauty, making it an emerging destination for some Tanzanians. As a young nation, its hospitality industry is still developing but shows promise, attracting a segment of Tanzania's 65 million population.
South Sudan is generally considered unsafe for tourists, especially when compared to Tanzania. According to the Global Peace Index, South Sudan ranks 158th out of 160 countries, while Tanzania ranks 63rd. The murder rate in South Sudan is significantly higher at 14.9 per 100,000 people, compared to Tanzania's 3.7. In terms of organized crime, South Sudan scores worse in several categories, such as crime networks (8.0 vs. 7.0 for Tanzania) and state crime (9.0 vs. 7.0). Additionally, South Sudan has higher risks related to human trafficking and arms trafficking. Overall, tourists from Tanzania should exercise caution and thoroughly assess the safety situation before considering travel to South Sudan.
