Favourite and least favourite holiday you have visited?

[Ellabella989]

Love travelling and always looking for recommendations. Where has been your favourite and least favourite holiday you have ever visited and why?
So far my favourite has been the Canadian Rockies - amazing scenery.
Least favourite has been Benidorm - got terrible food poisoning and was a bit too “Brits abroad”

Best: Iceland, Japan, Budapest
Worst: Wales, Dorset both in the rain

@stargazer2030 I have to agree with your DH about the Canaries. I find the landscape bleak and depressing. Nice weather tho!

Best St Lucia and Barbados
Worst Turkey and Tunisia, both seemed that everyone wanted to get as much money as possible including trying to pull you into shops

Beat Australia- Sydney, blue mountains, Townsville, Great Barrier Reef.

Worst- Bugiba in Malta. Like something out of a end of the world movie.

Best: my wedding on the Amalfi coast, family spa on Ischia, Budapest (4 visits!), Rome, Naples, Celebrity Caribbean cruise, Nicaragua, Venice

Worst: Paris, Centerparcs, Tenerife, Miami, Tangiers, Thailand, Bologna

Best - Pembrokeshire
Worst - Menorca

Worst - Egypt due to the unwanted attention from men outside the resort.
Best - Trekking in China, "inter-railing" in Japan, Thailand and Vietnam for lots swimming/snorkelling,

Sorry, that's really just a massive thumbs up for Asia generally from me!

Worst - oman (I was pregnant, and there isn't much to do there except swim in the wadi's and drink by the pool).

If you were in Oman when they're was enough water in the Wadis for you to swim in you must have spent the rest of your time there with your eyes closed if the only other thing for you to to do was sit by the pool and drink.

Best - Bali for culture and relaxation, Vienna for history and architecture, Seychelles for the outstanding natural beauty

Worst - Paris and New York: crowded and overrated, Sri Lanka for feeling unsafe/threatened/tourist rip-offs

Best.. Vietnam, amazing food/scenery and friendly people. Not overly touristy anywhere and 5* hotels with gold roll top baths for £40pn.

Worst - Rome. Overpriced, too touristy and really run down. Lots of homeless people, the streets often smelled of piss and scammers everywhere.

Best: Mallorca, New York, Thailand

Worst: Orlando and the parks so boring and Malta, so horrible

Best - South of France, Corsica and Croatia. All beautiful.

Worst - Morocco. Was only 15 and have never felt so objectified before or since

Best - India
Worst - Definitely Egypt - food poisoning and constantly hassled, didn't venture out alone.

Best - New York, been 5 times, did different things each time. And Sorrento - enough day trips by train / bus / boat to fill a week.
Worst - Marrakesh - terrible food poisoning, hot, not cheap, not much to see

By hassled I mean harrassed by misogynistic men.

Second best - Rome - loads to do, fascinating, not sure why it would feel unsafe (obviously you have to hang on to your bag but I do that everywhere). And you're never more than 2 minutes away from a bread/tomato/cheese-based snack
NYC and Rome - as long as you avoid visiting in summer

Best: Hard to choose. But probably Indonesia (Jakarta, Bandung and Bali) just for the culture shock alone.
Worst: Poland (Warsaw) Depressing as hell. Never seen more unhappy people than the ones in Warsaw. Maybe we were just unlucky though.

best Budapest,Rome Florence

Worst Benidorm by a country mile.

Best Vienna, loads to see, easy transport system, super friendly people

Worst - Malta, food not great, people miserable, horrible beach, not much to see & everyone trying forcefully to sell you stuff

Favourites would be - Thailand, Cuba, Barbados, Mexico, St Lucia, Cayman Islands, Antigua etc

Least favourites - Bulgaria, Slovakia, Amsterdam and Grenada

Best: Sri Lanka
Worst: probably menorca or magaluf

Best: Havana, cannes, Barcelona, Abu Dhabi, Palma

Worst: Florida. Cyprus

Best: Budapest, Romania (people were so kind and the scenery was amazing in Transylvania).

Worst: Travelling around the Atlantic coast of France, people were so rude (although we liked Paris).

Best: Jordan, Vietnam,Norway, Iceland
Worst: Blackpool, Tenerife, Dubai

Best: Luxor egypt

Worst: mexico...our hotel was massive and fuck all to do unless you wanted to pay 100s of dollars to go somewhere... no where to walk to either.
2nd worst: portugal. Got offered drugs continuously and our hotel went bust while staying there.
