The world's least visited countries

Not every nation can be a France or a Spain – but which countries see the fewest visitors? We took a look at the United Nations World Tourism Organisation's (UNWTO) stats for 2017...

Europe - Liechtenstein: 77,000 (up from 69,000 in 2016)

Europe's least visited country, with an estimated 77,000 arrivals in 2017, according to the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), is Liechtenstein. That's a rise of 11 per cent on 2016. So what are we all missing? This German-speaking sliver between Austria and Switzerland has astounding mountain scenery, apt for hiking, mountain biking and winter sports, and Vaduz Castle, a 12th century fortress. The eponymous capital has a fine contemporary art gallery - and a postal museum.
