Top Ten Least Welcoming Countries

Next time summer rolls around, I would not recommend going to these countries
The Top Ten
1 Bolivia Bolivia, officially known as the Plurinational State of Bolivia, is located in western-central South America.

Their breathtaking scenery might stun you, but Bolivia's citizens are the least welcoming people in the world to tourists.

2 Russia Russia, or the Russian Federation (RF), is a transcontinental country spanning Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. It is the largest country in the world by area, covering over 17,125,191 square kilometres (6,612,073 sq mi), and encompassing one-eighth of Earth's inhabitable landmass. Russia extends across ...read more.

Russia might warmly embrace those who are fleeing conflict, but the population has been reported to be less welcoming to tourists than they are to immigrants. The country's dangerous roads and poorly-trusted police force also contribute to a dropping tourism rate

3 Venezuela Venezuela, officially the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, is a federal republic located on the northern coast of South America.

Venezuela might be fantastic at protecting their wildlife, but they are not good at providing transport for their tourists! Transport is a vital need for travel!

4 Kuwait

Kuwait's giant oil industry has made the majority of employment in that particular business causing tourists to be "lonely" when they visit Kuwait.

5 Latvia Latvia, officially the Republic of Latvia, is a country in the Baltic region of Northern Europe. It is one of the Baltic states; and is bordered by Estonia to the north, Lithuania to the south, Russia to the east, Belarus to the southeast, and shares a maritime border with Sweden to the west. Latvia covers an area of 64,589 km2 (24,938 sq mi), with a population of 1.9 million. The country has a temperate seasonal climate. Its capital and largest city is Riga. Latvians belong to the ethno-linguistic group of the Balts; and speak Latvian, one of the only two surviving Baltic languages. Russians are the most prominent minority in the country, at almost a quarter of the population.

Latvia's Post-Soviet Traumatic stress has made the country unwelcoming and snappy to tourists causing the tourism rate to fall dramatically

6 Iran Iran, also known as Persia, officially the Islamic Republic of Iran, is a sovereign state in Western Asia. The capital city is Teheran and the major city is also Tehran. The country's official language is Persian.

Iran is home to one of the world's oldest civilizations, beginning with the formation of the Elamite kingdoms in the fourth millennium BC. The country's rich cultural legacy is reflected in part by its 22 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the third-largest number in Asia and eleventh-largest in the world. Iran is a multicultural country comprising numerous ethnic and linguistic groups. ...read more.

Notable for it's frustrating Visa process, Iran is not very welcoming to Western tourists and the "Death to America" signs across the country explain it all.

7 Somalia Somalia, officially the Federal Republic of Somalia, is a country in the Horn of Africa. The country is bordered by Ethiopia to the west, Djibouti to the northwest, the Gulf of Aden to the north, the Indian Ocean to the east, and Kenya to the southwest.

Around 85% of its residents are ethnic ...read more.

8 Pakistan Pakistan was established in 1947 and is located in South Asia. Islamabad is the capital city of Pakistan. Karachi, Lahore and Peshawar are other major cities of Pakistan. Urdu and English are official languages of Pakistan. World's second highest peak (K-2) and ninth highest peak (Nanga Parbat) are located in Pakistan.

Despite having beautiful mountain peaks, Pakistan is a risk as tourists are targeted in bomb attacks which happen frequently all across the country. Stay away for your own safety!

Islam is the best religion in the world. Nobody can compare Islam with other religion. Thankx

9 Slovakia

Slovakia is blessed with beautiful mountains, medieval history and charming folk culture, but after recently traveling here, I noticed that there is not many culinary options for children at restaurants. Not a very nice welcoming gift for children!

Summertime in Mongolia is the Naadam Festival, where full-grown men participate in three ruthless sports- wrestling, archery and horse racing. At this time of the year, people in Mongolia are not that very welcoming
