What tourist places would you refuse to go even if a friend paid for the trip for you? Where...

I'm going to avoid any place that is war ridden or extremist in their beliefs where I am restricted to 'breathe' openly.

A lot of the big Mexican resort communities that were tourist havens in the 80s are places that I would not accept paid tickets to in the present day. Specifically Cabo San Lucas and Acapulco are places I believe I'd respectfully decline. Might even say no to a trip to Cairo and the Great Pyramids right now given current global political climate.

Anywhere where LGBT+ laws are not in place and/or not respected.

@Maverick1962, I hate cities, but the exception to the rule is NY, I absolutely LOVE IT, and I can't wait to see it again in the future..

Maverick: Not to mention expensive.
Fernie: Agreed, I don't trust the alligators
Shade70: Agreed, I used to want to go there.

PeanutsAuntie: I have no desire to go to Paris either, some scenic areas in the south of France yes I'd like to go there.

PeanutsauntieP1982 · 41-45, F

Paris. Too touristy. Although I'd love to see the caves at Lascaeux (sp?) in the south of France.

Kellusion · 31-35, F

It would probably be easier to pick where I would go. I'm a picky eater though.

HatsOnFrogs · 26-30, M

Fair point! North Korea's a little better though... :P

Duchess: I never had the desire to go to New Orleans anyway, and kind of figured it was that way without being told...
Essexphil: Was supposed to go to Turkey to a resort city this summer but plans got cancelled after the friend we were to visit with died a couple months ago, political problems made me wary this winter anyway.

it's a toss up between Salzburg in Austria and Tunisia, both were horrific..
Salzburg though, had I only gone for 1 day, I'd have been happy enough, 4 days was like a living hell.. (there's effin nothing to do there)

Theoneyouwerewarnedabout: I know a couple who went to Nepal a couple summers ago, they came back and said it was horrible...don't know what they were expecting some kind of exotic spiritual place or what but they said it was dirty from the hotels to the heavily polluted rivers floating with trash to the odors...Imagine paying good money for a vacation like that!

HennyPenny: Where is "Hull"? I've never heard of it.

KISR93FM

You can visit for me, Aphrodite. Lol
I'll be content to see it in films and live video shots.

HatsOnFrogs · 26-30, M

Hull... Seriously, never go to Hull. You leave part of you behind every time... *shudder*

@Cherokeepatti, my h/b has been in India a few times for work, he saw someone being knocked down, the other motorists got out of their car and moved him out of the way and carried on their journey.. also he saw guys stopping their motorbikes in the middle of heavy traffic and got off to have a piss in the middle of the road... not hiding what they were doing at all. .. India is a bit crazy

Imagine what that smells like

bijouxbroussard · F

My family's originally from New Orleans, I've been during Mardi Gras, and while that's the main tourist season, it's the worst time imaginable to go. It was a lot different before Katrina, too.
I wouldn't go to Miami on a dare.

TheOneyouwerewarnedabout · 46-50, MVIP

exactly.. india egypt etc.. dirty old hole with one or two things to look at..
