Go2Africa Noise-Free Nations Index rankings

Overview

The travel agency Go2Africa has released a ‘Noise-Free Nations Index’ to rank countries based on their tranquility levels, factoring in elements such as population density, tourist footfall, and transportation infrastructure.

Initial findings identified Bhutan as the world’s quietest country with a score of 89.44, followed by Namibia and Botswana. Other top-ranking nations included Zambia, Bolivia, and Mongolia, which were noted for providing remote natural settings.

In contrast, Singapore was ranked as the noisiest country in the world, receiving a low tranquility score of 6.78 out of 10. The ranking attributed Singapore’s noise levels to its high population and tourist density, limited rural land, and extensive transportation networks, including Changi Airport and the Mass Rapid Transit system.
