“Bad Human Behavior Everywhere”: 30 Places That Are No Longer Worth Visiting Due To The Crowds

Interview With Expert

Popular tourist destinations are popular for a reason, but that often means that you are stuck battling hundreds, if not thousands of other travelers who all want to pose in front of the same statue, room or fountain.
Someone asked “Which trip/location was ruined for you because of crowds?” and netizens shared their best (and worst) examples. We also got in touch with veteran traveler Lauren Juliff to learn more. So get comfortable as you scroll through, prepare to take some notes, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments section below.

This is problem at pretty much every state and national park and it's so annoying and disappointing. I'm glad people are enjoying something that was set aside for people to enjoy...but the lack of respect and consideration is so aggravating.

“Bad Human Behavior Everywhere”: 30 Places That Are No Longer Worth Visiting Due To The Crowds I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Barcelona yet. We first went in 2003 and loved it. Lots of tourists, but it was under control. Went again in 2009 and it was more crowded, but bearable. Went again in 2017 and it was kind of insane. It was wall-to-wall tourism. It was like a theme park.

Bored Panda got in touch with blogger and veteran traveler Lauren Juliff and she was kind enough to answer some of our questions. Firstly, we wanted to hear what travel tips she would have given her younger self.

“I would tell myself that everybody has bad experiences when they travel. When I first set out to travel the world, it felt like I had walked straight into disaster. I got heatstroke, I got lost, and I got scammed — all within the first month of my trip! It’s something that not many travelers write about online — on Instagram, everybody shares their highlight reel, but there aren’t many people who are willing to share that nasty bout of food poisoning they just encountered.”

“For a long time I thought that the problem was me. I believed that everybody else was successfully traveling the world and having an incredible time, so I had to be doing something wrong. Of course, I wasn’t doing anything wrong! Everybody has bad things happen to them when they travel, whether it’s lost luggage, being pickpocketed, or missing a flight. What’s important is to stay calm when something terrible happens. Breathe, collect yourself, and strategize a response: what can you learn from this experience?”

“Bad Human Behavior Everywhere”: 30 Places That Are No Longer Worth Visiting Due To The Crowds Kyoto. Just left the other day. I imagined Kyoto was some peaceful provincial antithesis of Tokyo. That is how it is marketed,anyway. But the crowds are absolutely intense. I’m talking 10s of thousands of people amassing at the popular sites: Fushimi Inari, Arashiyama, Nishiki, Kiyomizu Dera, and Ninenzaka / Sanneizaka. No where to move. Nowhere to escape.

To me, Kyoto is the poster child of how Instagram (and the mass affluence of society) ruined nice things.

My wife & I have been there multiple times, usually in February when the weather is cold but usually dry. While the gardens are less than stellar, temples & shrines are almost empty of tourists. Further, it's easier to get about by bus & train, accommodation in the city is cheaper than normal as are return airfares from Australia.

“Bad Human Behavior Everywhere”: 30 Places That Are No Longer Worth Visiting Due To The Crowds Versailles. I knew it would be busy, it was summer, but it was a massive bucket list visit for me, and there were SO many people inside the palace that I could see way more people than the actual rooms and treasures (the Hall of Mirrors had no magic for me due to crowds) and we felt like cattle being herded. However, we absolutely loved the gardens and other buildings (Petit Trianon etc) so overall still really enjoyed the whole day.

We also wanted to hear her opinion on how to figure out budgeting and time versus cost. “If you have the funds to allow you to make the most of your travels, then it’s definitely worth doing so. Time is the only resource that cannot be replenished, so it’s important to make the most of what we do have. If you have limited vacation time each year and paying extra allows you to see more of the world, I can certainly understand why somebody would make that choice.”

“Paying more money allows you to avoid many of the stresses that travel brings: you can choose to skip long layovers, reduce your chances of lost luggage by flying direct, avoid crowded transportation, and stay in safer neighborhoods.”

The worst for me has not been a specific city but a specific type of destination. Famous museums can be so full that admiring the art is difficult. And it’s so disappointing to see people walk to each piece, hold up their phone in front of others’ faces and snap a picture, then walk away. Don’t even take time to look at it with their eyes instead of their screens. Why even bother? Just look up the art online and lessen the crowds! Musée d'Orsay in Paris was the most frustrating.

Oh and the Natural History Museum in London was the most packed I ever saw a museum in my life. I can’t believe they did not limit capacity. It was so hot the day I was there and many exhibits are not air conditioned. The atmosphere was stifling and hard to enjoy the visit.

Japanese tourists, laughing and shouting while creating a human pyramid in the nave of the Notre Dame (before the fire) - and DURING a mass!! American tourists screaming at cashiers in English (as if louder ensures comprehension!) "How much is this?People from every country pushing and shoving to get to where they want to go!!

I've been to many of the places named in this thread, including Venice in summer and Kyoto in April, but nothing was as bad as Prague in September. Wall to wall tourist and all the shops sold cheap tourist c**p. The main square was full of bad street performers that had nothing to do with Prague. It felt more like medieval Disneyland than a real city. We didn't like it at all.

Prague is one of my favorite cities. It sounds like you just did the top tourist traps. I saw hockey games, went to a beer spa, spent time in some non-tourist area pubs with great local food (and brewed their own beers in house), took a boat trip, and I loved it! There was even a Starsky and Hutch themed pub for some random reason. I'd also say do some trips out of the city because Czechia is full of beautiful villages, mineral spa towns, and just wonderful medieval towns that are full of charm.

Lastly, we were curious about what general tips she might have. “Definitely make sure to read up about the destination you’ll be traveling to: learn a few words of the local language, research any common scams, and make sure you’ve packed the correct clothing if traveling to a conservative country.”

“Definitely get travel insurance before you leave: it’s always better to be safe than sorry, especially when it comes to your health. As somebody who has been hospitalized in four different countries while traveling, knowing that I wasn’t going to end up with an enormous medical bill at the end made the whole experience a lot less stressful.”

Pre covid, long lines. Post covid, there's almost nobody there. I speak from experience. And what rules are they talking about?! Basic rules that apply to any museum? Like don't climb the structures? Stay on the clearly marked paths? No screaming? The only rule that is of the slightest inconvenience is that women are to keep their shoulders covered and to wear longer shorts.

Most of Quintana Roo, Mexico. And most of Bali, Indonesia. (Thoroughly love both countries in general though)

It”s not just the crowds, but also the demographics of the crowds - mostly people there to party and be tourists.

I don’t mind crowds, and I don’t even mind a good party destination - I love Las Vegas for example.

But when the place feels overrun, and shady markets start popping up for tourists (d***s, prostitution, animal exploitation) I don’t like it and I’m very aware that I’m contributing to the problem by being there.

“Make sure you research the money situation in the country, too: do locals expect you to pay with cash or have they transitioned to cards-only? Will your foreign cards work while overseas? Have you notified your bank that you’ll be traveling? Do you know the current exchange rate? Having the answers to all of these will make your first few days in a new country a lot smoother.” You can find more of Lauren's work on her Instagram and her website.

I live close by, but I can't get the hype of Cinque Terre. It's insanely overpriced. It's hard to reach. It's full of tourists. Locals live off tourism but see it as a nuisance and are not shy of letting you know. There are massive groups from cruises and organized tours that take up whole streets at a time. The towns are nice but not so dissimilar from many other cities on the same coast, and I'd say Porto Venere or Porto Santo Stefano are even better.

Everywhere in LA is crowded everyday. During the middle of the week, early in the morning, late at night, always. There’s no parking anywhere, so you have to search forever to find a spot, so we’ve turned around and gone back home a couple of times. Hiring an Uber is expensive. Parking fees are expensive unless you get lucky. Traffic is the worst, sometimes it takes 30 minutes to go a mile. There’s trash and bad graffiti everywhere, people yelling at each other in the streets, and there are solicitors in front of every other store. The touristy spots are torture because of crowds. Those are just things from off the top of my head.

I've lived in Southern and Central California at multiple points in my life. As a teenager in the 1970's, it was great. As a 30-something in the 1990's, I couldn't wait to get away. I remember jokes at that time that the 405 Freeway was the largest open air parking lot in the world. Central California was okay in the 2007-2008 timeframe, but driving south was always a drag. I've been settled outside Washington, DC for about 15 years and there's plenty of traffic here, but I'm much happier here than on the west coast, I think because I know I can never recapture the SoCal of my youth, 50 years ago.

Preikestolen, Norway. you queue up to the place, people go to the toilet for number two right next to the path since this is a long walk, and rarely have good enough footwear. You go down in line, and it's packed full of people. Tje government was a bit ahead in damage control to the nature and hired sherpas to work on the path with carrying and laying down stones on the entire path so that there was minimal damage later on. Tourists aisle becoming a world problem.

Oh no! The horror, the horror! The headline of this article should be changed to: "Entitled tourists moan about other tourists ruining tourist destinations."

Well, now I am less inclined to even want to go to the places I had been dreaming about. Glad I'm not devoted to the idea of a "Bucket List."
