5 Most Dangerous Countries for LGBTQ+ American Travelers

4. Nigeria

Insider Monkey Score: 185

Nigeria is one of the worst countries for American LGBT+ travelers. LGBT people are not welcome at all in the African nation, and it’s best to avoid visiting this country. Asher & Lyric has been consistently ranking this country as its number one worst country for traveling, largely due to the extreme penalties that come along from being gay. Same-Sex Prohibition Act further criminalizes homosexuality and even transgender and non-conforming people.
