Spain Named the Safest, Cleanest, and
Cheapest Holiday Destination in the World

With the wonderful climate and outstanding food
no wonder Spain is considered the best
country in the world.

The World Economic Forum released their biannual Travel and
Tourism Competitiveness Report last week, naming Spain as the best country in the world for tourism.
The comprehensive study ranks 138 countries around the world
on a range of factors. The main aim of the report is to rank the safety,
cleanliness, affordability, leisure options, and accessibility of each nation.
Spain edged ahead of Germany and France this time when it
came to destinations for global travellers thanks to several factors.
The World Economic Forum said that one of the reasons Spain
came in first was because the country places such a heavy emphasis on tourism.
The report praised Spain for how hard the country works to provide high quality
airports and air travel, incredible cultural resources, comprehensive
tourist-based infrastructure. The country has also become a popular hub for
business travel.
Coupled with the natural attractions of the country – the beaches, weather, landscape, and location of the country – it all goes together
to make Spain unbeatable.
The World Economic Forum measures all of the factors and
policies that allow for the continued development of travel and tourism, which
contributes to how well a country develops and competes.
It shouldn’t be much of a surprise that Spain has officially
been recognised as having the best tourism reputation in the world. Spain has
been the most visited country in the world for the past few years. Success
begets success, as more and more holidaymakers head to the country there’s more
word-of-mouth recommendations than ever before. The authorities of Spain have also taken all the steps needed to ensure the country stays special.
Second place went to France, with Germany coming third,
Japan coming fourth, and the UK coming in at fifth. Despite the drab weather of
the UK, the country performed well on cultural and historical attractions, as
well as tourism services.
The top ten was rounded out by the USA, Australia, Italy,
Canada, and Switzerland.
