Africa-Press – Cape verde. Cape Verde is among the 16 safest destinations to visit in Africa, according to a list compiled by the Travel off Path specialty website. However, there is a call for attention to the city of Praia, regarding the “crime”. Among the ranking are Angola, Namibia, Equatorial Guinea, Botswana, Rwanda, Senegal, Seychelles and São Tomé and Príncipe, among others.
The publication places the Cape Verde archipelago at Level 1, on the scale prepared by the US Department of State, where Americans do not face any “high threat related to crime, violent demonstrations or other social disturbances”.
However, there is a call for attention regarding the city of Praia, the “capital” of the country, as they refer, due to the “crime”, where tourists are advised to be more attentive and to be “aware” of this possibility.
All other islands are safe
“Although all the other islands are safe for foreigners”, says the article, which brings two photos of the island of Sal, one of Praia de Santa Maria and another of the pedestrian street of Santa Maria, as well.
“Perhaps surprisingly, countries like Angola, Rwanda and Zambia, and lesser-known Botswana and Togo, just to name a few, are also relatively safe.”
It should be noted that, for example, in Angola, despite being also at Level 1 security, Americans are also advised to be “cautious” when walking in urban areas, as “crimes and kidnappings” are supposedly common.
It should be noted that the article states that this is a current list, that is, intended for those who are going to travel “at this moment”.
