Mexico is a Do Not Travel Zone

dangerous travel destinations

It’s quite disheartening to see Mexico on the most dangerous travel destinations for 2020 because it really is a beautiful place. Unfortunately, with the rise of the cartel, many countries have a Do Not Travel advisory in effect. This advisory pertains to places like Tamaulipas, Sinaloa, Guerrero, Michoacan and other states run by the cartels. It is recommended to still avoid these states, regardless of how much of a daredevil you are.

However, you can go to “safer” Mexico areas such as Oaxaca and resort destinations for a dangerous experience that is less likely to involve a robbery, kidnapping, carjacking or worse, homicide.

 

Nicaragua and San Salvador Is In The Midst of a Crime Crisis

Whenever traveling to Central America, you should do so vigilantly. While there are many safe destinations in this beautiful place, many are experiencing higher levels of violent crimes than what they’re used to. As a result, many countries are urging their people to reconsider traveling to Nicaragua and San Salvador.

If you do want to still experience the adrenaline-rush that comes with traveling to Central America, check out more tourist-appropriate zones. Keep the flashy jewelry hidden and RFID blocking wallet on you, and remain aware of your surroundings at all times.

 

Venezuela Is a Do Not Travel Zone

With Venezuela currently battling high violent crime rates, political rallies and demonstrations, poor health infrastructure and unlawful arrests of Americans, it’s no surprise this otherwise beautiful place has found itself on the most dangerous travel destinations for 2020. It’s so dangerous that many of is residents are seeking asylum in other countries. So, this is one place where you may need more than a tactical pen and carbon fiber wallet with you when you travel.

 

Brazil and Bordering Areas are Steer Clear Zonesdangerous places

Even the tourist destinations in Brazil are being considered the most dangerous places to travel to in 2020, due to the increased crime and dangerous situations occurring along the borer of Peru, Colombia, Bolivia and Venezuela. As such, you may not want to travel to these places with just a tactical pen and carbon fiber wallet. You may, however, want to visit other areas that offer the adrenaline and safe dose of danger, such as Bogota.

Although Colombia is on the border that is seeing some problems, areas such as Nuqui, Cucuta and Popayan are considered to be safer areas. Just be sure to avoid Arauca, Choco, Narino, Cauca and Norte De Santander.

 

The most dangerous travel destinations in 2020 are considered dangerous for a vast array of reasons. These places aren’t bad, nor are the people, but there are advisories put in place, as the risk of potential threats is higher than other areas. As long as you remain vigilant and travel wise, and carry a tactical pen and RFID wallet with you, your next adventure can be an adrenaline rush of pure excitement.
