Summary/Abstract: Before 2019, tourism around the world was breaking records in numbers every year. If we compare the number of peopleinvolved in tourism with the values of a few decades ago, we can witness an amazing development. Concerning all four countries(Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia) we can say that the historical roots are very similar. Still, at the same time, theyhave taken a specific and, in many cases, separate paths to reach the current level of development.The World Tourism Organisationdoes not consider Hungary, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia as a separate touristic region. However, considering thecurrent touristic trends, we can say that more and more people arriving from far-away places look at this area as one region. Duringtheir holiday, they visit several countries. Those working in the field of tourism mostly speak the most common world languages.It is not easy to use exact indicators of the local population’s helpfulness, but most Europeans can be said to be understandingand helpful to tourists. The current study aims to introduce and analyse the current trends of tourism safety of the V4 countries
