New Zealand has been rated by travellers as the safest nation on Earth, but the British travel magazine behind the award has adamantly denied it means New Zealand is boring.
Wanderlust magazine polled its readers about the best countries on Earth and awarded the top spot to Namibia, knocking New Zealand off the overall No. 1 rating from last year.
But the one category where New Zealand maintains its No. 1 rating is safety, outpolling even Switzerland and Singapore.
Wanderlust editor Lyn Hughes said the safety award "emphatically doesn't mean boring" and says it reflects visitors' freedom from worrying about risks.
