The worst countries for vacation are Egypt, Aegean Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Zanzibar. Such a top was compiled by tourists on the Reddit forum, telling the stories of their worst trips. According to user reviews, these are the four resort places where they would never want to return.
Egypt
According to travelers, this is the worst country for vacationers. One of them under the nickname p3chapai shared a sad experience of being in the country: “Egypt. It’s dirty and dangerous, and the people are not nice at all. My teenage sister had to endure harassment from older people wherever she went.”
Turkey
Despite the high demand for resorts in Turkey, the coast of the Aegean Sea has disappointed many travelers who have visited there. “Aegean Turkey. Ruined by mass tourism. Only Izmir is worth visiting. Head east if you’re looking for something real,” wrote one (nicknamed AdEmbarrassed8490).
UAE
“Dubai seems soulless and superficial. It doesn’t make sense. In a strict Muslim country, drugs are so illegal that they can be found in parks and recreation areas. A lot of alcohol. Advanced technology and wealth mixed with poverty, a global destination for the sex trade, and slave labor from other Muslim places they treat like trash. These are, for example, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and some parts of the Philippines. All around is glitz, glamor, and nonsense. Big houses are constantly fighting with nature. Nonsensical architectural projects, some unfinished and stagnant,” a user under the nickname FuturamaReference complained after his visits.
Zanzibar
Another hated destination for tourists who vacationed there is the exotic island of Zanzibar in Tanzania. “Zanzibar, the island is beautiful, but rampant poverty and corruption can be seen there with the naked eye. I was very embarrassed about my role as a rich tourist… One of our guides said that he was one of two working people in his entire village and our resort supported their existence. It was a strange experience and I don’t want it to happen again,” concluded the traveler under the nickname Bad loss.
