Ghana has been ranked the third safest country in Africa, according to global tourism firm Altezza Travel’s 2025 report on recommended travel destinations.
The report highlights Ghana’s low crime rate, which surpasses even countries like Canada, Greece, and Australia. This achievement reflects improvements in security attributed to the Ghana Police Service’s enhanced community patrols.
Rwanda and Tunisia ranked ahead of Ghana on the Numbeo Crime Index 2025, but the report acknowledged the complexity of measuring crime due to varying definitions and reporting standards. Ghana’s inclusion in Altezza’s top eight safest African countries underscores its appeal as a secure and tourist-friendly destination.
