    1. Now do a video on Pakistani tourists. Or how about Israeli tourists? Oh God, how about one involving Chinese tourists?

      All three of those would make you pray for the British person.

    2. Brits are not even close to the worst tourists. Indians leave a path of destruction behind…Chinese are disrespectful and come in swarms like locusts etc

    3. Harsh, but mostly fair.
      Some of them will want to settle down, and live in communities composed entirely of Brits and Irish people who speak none of the local language, drink British beer in Faux Irish pubs, eat roast dinners and full English breakfasts, complaining about how they have to leave the UK because it’s full of Immigrants who wont integrate.

    4. Wait? Don’t you want them to stay in their resort by the pool? Otherwise they might bother the locals right? Thea are actually the optimal tourists to have, unless you have to work at the resort, but otherwise I’d take these over the useless people clogging up sidewalks to take selfies.

    5. i-read-it-again on

      You’ve forgot the big one. How do you spot the British coming off a plane ✈️ at a foreign airport. They’re the ones with the toilet rolls. Thus the song . Roll Britannia

    6. classic- I am from a tourist town that they frequent and this aint far off. Fun folks though!

    7. Natural habitat is on the Costa del Sol. AirBNB in Marbella, Malaga and Puerto de la Duquesa. Day trip to Gibraltar

    8. Reeferologist- on

      I used to work on the beach down here in South Florida and you’d see a very pasty tourist walk by at like 8 in the morning in a great mood and ready for a beach day. By 1 you see them hobbling back the other way as red as a lobster and in visible pain.

      This South Florida sun will get you faster than most places people are visiting from so if you come down, put sunblock on, and don’t get so drunk you pass out on the beach either, you’re gonna have a bad time.

    9. Like 20 years ago, the Chinese tourist began overtaking the American tourist as the stereotypical “bad tourist”.

      I’ve seen the British tourist becoming a real contender for the title. Has it happened? Are the Brits the new cliche of bad tourists?

    10. On a different note, the German owner of the hostel I booked in Algarve came directly from the 70s. What a cool guy!

    11. MrsAshleyStark on

      I saw a lot of this when I went to Majorca in 2022. The Brits and Germans were indeed loud and obnoxious.

    12. It’s just nice to know that somewhere, sometimes, there’s a kind of tourist people hate even more than Americans.

    13. You’re obviously also just hanging round the same cheap, shitty resorts then?
      Some of us actively avoid places like this but still have to endure the occasional knobby Russians thinking a queue for the ski lift doesn’t apply to them, gobshite Americans convinced the world needs to hear everything they say at full volume, Chinese arriving like a swarm, making a noise and leaving crap all over the beach, people letting their offspring run round screaming- oblivious or disinterested in everyone else trying to get some relaxation time and narcissists from around the globe huffing because you’re stood in their instagram shot at a major tourist attraction.

    14. Are British tourists the Florida people of Europe? Or are Floridians the British people of America?

    15. My husband and I are typically polite, curious, easy going travelers (from the USA) and have always been deeply anxious/ aware of the bad rap Americans have had in the past, we travel a lot all over the world but really love Southern Europe. Not gonna lie, it’s been kinda funny to introduce ourselves as American and get a relieved and welcoming response often combined with locals trash talking brits. I’m not sure what shifted particularly in the last 5-8 ish years (was it brexit??) but southern Europe seems not shy about their disdain.

    16. Hear ye hear ye, Henceforth rural enland will be known as Britissippi. No questions will be taken.

    17. Is this the thread where we all judge based on prejudice and resentment by pilloring the worst examples we can find of a some arbitrarily defined group?

      Because it sure reads like that’s what we’re all here for, some casual two minutes hate over a still image with narration about no one in particular? 

      Good. Good. 

    18. Got news for ya. Britain doesn’t have a monopoly on tourists like these… every country has the own version of knobheads like these. In America we call them rednecks.

    19. Do one of these on american tourists please, now that we are feeling superior to British tourists

    20. Monty Python sum it up:
      And then some adenoidal typists from Birmingham with flabby white legs and diarrhea trying to pick up hairy bandy-legged waiters called Manuel and once a week there’s an excursion to the local Roman Remains to buy cherryade and melted ice cream and bleeding Watney’s Red Barrel and one evening you visit the so called typical restaurant with local color and atmosphere and you sit next to a party from Rhyl who keep singing “Torremolinos, torremolinos” and complaining about the food – “It’s so greasy isn’t it?” – and you get cornered by some drunken greengrocer from Luton with an Instamatic camera and Dr. Scholl sandals and last Tuesday’s Daily Express and he drones on and on about how Mr. Smith should be running this country and how many languages Enoch Powell can speak and then he throws up over the Cuba Libres.
