10. Caracas, Venezuela
This is the capital city of Venezuela and it is
presently facing a crisis involving drug gangs.
Street crimes such as muggings and theft are
also common, making this an undesirable
destination for most tourists. Many other cities
in Venezuela also have high crime rates.

9. Ciudad Juarez, Mexico
Mexico’s problems with drug traffickers are well
known and Ciudad Juarez is one of the nation’s
most violent cities right now. Police are often
employed or paid off by drug gangs, which
means that many crimes go unpunished.

8. Cape Town, South Africa
Due to the prevalence of poverty and social
unrest in this city, it is suffering from an
extremely high crime rate. Although many
tourists are drawn to South Africa because of its
natural beauty and proximity to nature preserves
and other attractions, Cape Town can be a
dangerous place. It is possible to enjoy a visit to
this city if you avoid the more dangerous
sections and don’t travel alone at night.

7. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Many cities in Brazil have very high crime rates,
and some are more dangerous than Rio de
Janeiro. Yet since Rio is by far the most popular
tourist destination in Brazil, it’s worth focusing
on here. Rio is actually safer than it was a
decade ago, but street crimes are still common
in many areas, especially at night. It’s possible
to enjoy the resorts and beaches of this city, but
common sense precautions should be taken.

6. Guatemala City, Guatemala
Although Guatemala, a Central American nation
on the Caribbean, has many tourist attractions,
it’s a nation that is plagued with drug violence.
It has a high murder rate and other common
crimes include street robberies, bus holdups and
carjackings. It’s advisable if visiting Guatemala
to remain in safer regions and avoid Guatemala
City.

5. Acapulco, Mexico
Not long ago, this city was considered a safe and
luxurious resort area. While tourism to Acapulco
is still popular, drug violence has now made this
into a dangerous area. Recent statistics reveal
that this city has one of the world’s highest
murder rates -142 per 100,000 people. People
visiting Acapulco are advised to remain on the
property of the resorts where they are staying,
as most of the crime occurs in surrounding
areas.

4. Baghdad, Iraq
Bombings, gunfire and other violent events are
common in Iraq. This country has been on the
“do not travel” list for Americans for many years
and Baghdad remains a dangerous place. The
future of Iraq is extremely uncertain as U.S.
troops are departing from the country. This is
another war-torn country that is not likely to be
safe anytime soon. Since the violence in Baghdad
usually consists of unpredictable outbreaks of
terrorism, it’s not a place that people should
visit without a good reason.

3. Kabul, Afghanistan
This has been one of the most dangerous cities
in the world for some time. It is still a war zone,
although U.S. troops are gradually being
removed from the country. Terrorist attacks,
including many bombings are common. Kabul is
facing a very uncertain future and will probably
be a very dangerous place for the foreseeable
future. Like Baghdad, Kabul is a city where
violence can occur at any time.

2. Karachi, Pakistan
Pakistan is experiencing a great deal of political
unrest, and crime as well as terrorism is
rampant. Assassinations are common, as well as
suicide bombings and gang warfare. Karachi is
one of the centers of this violence and tourists
are advised to avoid this city.

1. San Pedro Sula, Honduras
This city has ranked as one of the world’s most
violent for several years now. According to many
sources, it has the highest homicide rates in the
world -169 per 100,000 people. Arms trafficking
is a big problem, and illegal firearms are
prevalent throughout the city. This is a city that
tourists would do well to avoid.
