The 9 Most Dangerous Countries for Tourists to Visit

No. 8 Guatemala

Guatemala is a beautiful country with an amazing forest and picturesque cities. Yet, the country has a serious problem with gangs and drug-traffic related crimes, which are constantly menacing the main cities. As many central-American countries like Mexico and Guatemala have a strong macho culture, numerous sexual assaults have taken place over the past years, with a rise of 34 percent between 2008 and 2011. This makes the country unattractive for traveling tourists.
