We made the TOP 10 Safest Countries to Travel

Hello Getaway family, here in Portugal things are starting to slowly change, and we know that before people choose to go on holiday/vacation to visit our beautiful country they need to know that it is safe to do so.  

We at Getaway have always prided ourselves on the cleanliness not only of our vans which are extensively and thoroughly cleaned before each and every use of the vans, but also on our country and the safety of it.

 

 It seems we are not the only ones who think so.  

Here we have a list published by the Associação de Turismo do Porto E Norte (The Tourism Association of Porto and the North) compiled by Insurly a renowned French insurance company. We are in the top ten of the safest places to travel to in 2020 out of 180 countries. 

Portugal is in 8th place in the list of these countries to travel in 2020 and with a score of 85.4 out of 100. – Leaving far behind countries like the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, Netherlands and many other well known destinations.

The report analyzed 180 countries and assessed them on several factors such as crime rates, road safety, violence, terrorism, natural disasters and the quality of medical care, in addition to air quality, sanitation and risks of exposure to epidemics, including the latest Covid-19 pandemic. Here is the list.
