Traveldiva- A group of tourists from different parts of the world shared their experiences on a Reddit forum about tourist attractions they will never visit again. This discussion covers several well-known destinations that apparently do not provide a pleasant experience for most traveler. The following is a summary of their comments.
Cairo, Egypt
Cairo, the capital of Egypt famous for its pyramids, received harsh criticism from tourists. Although the pyramids are considered beautiful and full of history, many tourists feel their experience is being ruined by fraudsters and touts roaming around the tourist attraction.
One tourist with the account @cheat-Meat wrote, “Saya tidak akan pernah lagi pergi ke sana. Of course the pyramid is beautiful, tapi para penipu dan calo merusak pengalaman itu.”
Another tourist added to his harrowing experience in Cairo. He told how he was locked in a perfume shop and forced to buy something before being allowed to leave.
India
India, although it is famous for its cultural richness, is also on the list of disappointing destinations. Many tourists complain about harassment of women and disrespectful treatment such as being stared at and groped.
One Reddit user, @Thecwestions, write, “Kecintaan saya terhadap kari tidak membuat saya ingin datang lagi ke sana.”
These complaints illustrate how some tourists feel unsafe and uncomfortable while in India, although they admire the local food and culture.
Florida, AS
Darabtrfly, a Reddit user, describes Florida as a 'tourist trap'. According to him, although the view there is amazing, the heat and dirty conditions made him not want to return.
“Kondisi panas yang tidak tertahankan dan tempat-tempat wisata yang kotor membuat pengalaman di Florida sangat tidak menyenangkan,” tulisnya.
These comments show that extreme weather and poor hygiene can seriously affect tourists' experiences.
Roma, Italy
Roma, a city full of history and architectural beauty, also received criticism. Reddit user Gre209by said that the city is too crowded and hot during the peak of summer.
“Roma terlalu ramai dan panas. I couldn't enjoy the beauty of this city because I had to jostle with lots of people,” tulisnya.
The problem of tourist density is a major concern, especially for those who want to enjoy tourism comfortably.
Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Dubai, which is famous for its modern architecture and skyscrapers, also blacklisted. Reddit user robot2084tron describes Dubai as 'the biggest tourist trap'.
According to him, although this city offers luxury and modernity, many tourists feel trapped in commercialism and an unfriendly atmosphere.
“Dubai mungkin terlihat mewah, but it's all just a ploy to attract tourists. I won't be back again,” tulisnya.
The tourists' stories provide a different perspective on popular tourist destinations. Although these places offer beauty and uniqueness, An unpleasant experience can discourage tourists from returning. It is important for prospective tourists to do in-depth research and consider other people's experiences before deciding on their next tourist destination.
