Travel:what are the 10 most welcoming cities in the world?

Going on a trip is first and foremost an opportunity to discover new cultures, new people, to visit sublime places or simply to enjoy the sun... Only here, the dream can quickly turn into a nightmare if you feels unwelcome by locals, who sometimes reject tourists. To help us choose the right destination, the travel agency TravelBird has established a ranking of the 100 most welcoming cities in the world, by studying them closely but also based on the opinion of 15,000 expert travel journalists. . So, who are the 10 big winners of this survey?

Europe in the spotlight

To achieve this ranking, the agency first analyzed the 500 most touristic destinations, then separated them according to several criteria such as:welcoming stations (or an airport), the well-being of the inhabitants, safety or reception capacity. The top city on the list is Singapore, followed by Stockholm (in Sweden), Helsinki (in Finland), San Francisco (in the United States) and Rotterdam (in the Netherlands). In 6th position, we find Lisbon (the Portuguese capital) then Tokyo (in Japan), Oslo (in Norway), Zurich (in Switzerland) and finally Orlando (in the United States). No French city in the top?! Nice saves the honor and ranks in 15th position, Toulouse in 63rd and Paris in 65th... Well, that's not too bad, even if there is still some progress to be made!

So, does that give you any ideas?
