    I’m sorry man, but from what I’ve heard in the tourism industry yanks run third place of worst tourists. Second? Germans. First? The English. It’s always the goddamn English.

      Really? I primarily hear about American, Chinese, and English tourists behaving badly.

      I don’t actually travel, or encounter a lot of German people; what exactly is it that German tourists do that portray them so poorly?

        I live in a port city and we have cruise tourism… maybe that’s the outlier.

        Though I did read in the news once that Chinese tourists would go into people’s homes and even crash a funeral to take pictures…

        That’s pretty fucked up.
