Zimbabwe is an appealing destination for some Thai travelers, offering a rich cultural heritage and stunning natural attractions like Victoria Falls and Great Zimbabwe. Although foreign visitor numbers have recently declined, the country's diverse tourism options could attract a portion of the 10.4 million Thais who travel abroad annually.
Zimbabwe's safety for tourists, including those coming from Thailand, is a concern. The Global Peace Index ranks Zimbabwe 119th out of 160 countries, indicating it is less safe than Thailand, which ranks 73rd. In terms of crime statistics, Zimbabwe has a higher murder rate at 6.1 per 100,000 people compared to Thailand's 4.9. Additionally, the rates of female murders are also higher in Zimbabwe (1.9) than in Thailand (1.2). Regarding organized crime, Zimbabwe scores worse in several categories on the Global Organized Crime Index, with indices indicating more significant challenges in crime networks (7.5 vs. 5.0), state crime (8.0 vs. 6.5), and resource crime (8.0 vs. 6.0). Overall, while tourists can visit Zimbabwe, they should remain vigilant and informed about local safety conditions.
