52 Shocking Travel Destinations That Failed to Impress Even the Most Eager Tourists
Positano in August- the amount of stairs you have to climb to go anywhere is INSANE. Also insanely crowded and expensive. Icing on the cake for me was getting a terrible stomach virus that left me trapped in my hotel the last 2 days of my trip. Never going back lol.
I wouldn’t say “never again” but I’ve outgrown Las Vegas, and I have no particular desire to go back. I mean, I’d go for a wedding or conference or something like that.
Bourbon St, New Orleans. Filthy, foul smelling, and I’m way beyond my party til you puke stage.
Yellowstone
Went multiple times as a kid and young adult and loved it. Went again with my husband a few years ago (in September, not even peak season!), and it was just jam-packed with people, especially big tour buses. You can’t really enjoy any of the major features there because of the massive crush of people and the insane traffic.
Go to the Grand Tetons instead if you’re in the area.
Istanbul. I’ve been there twice and i get the feeling that people are kind of rude and there is a lot of scammers on the loose. And I was expecting a rich gastronomy but it was pretty basic. I hope I can visit other parts of Turkey and change my mind.
Amsterdam, too many tourists and expats. I live there, so take my word for it.
Philippines – had a person from an organized crime syndicate call my hotel room pretending to be a driver for prearranged travel. Hotel said someone must have leaked my personal information – and moved me to another floor. I contacted my travel agent – requested a different hotel, they said I was already in the safest hotel in Manila.
Seoul was just not my vibe. All the main sites were just Instagram traps, I found people quite rude and food was meh for the price. I’d rather fly to Japan.
Los Angeles.
Poverty, dereliction, homelessness.
