Everyone wants their vacation to be stress free. You might think that you've thought of everything: tickets, travel insurance and hotels. However there are problems beyond your control that can turn your vacation into a nightmare.
#1 Spain
Every year Spain sets a new record for foreign tourist arrivals. Majority of tourists come to Barcelona. The locals are angry with it because of constant noises and crowd of people in the streets. So if you want to walk on Las Ramblas take it into account.
#2 India
There are 24 areas in Goa where it is forbidden to take selfies. The reason is a large number of deaths and injuries among the tourists. If you want to rent a bike in India mind that transport here drives on the left and traffic is not regulated by traffic light signals. Be aware that many people riding cars and bikes on the roads of Goa are intoxicated.
#3 France
In France, Paris, in particular, you risk facing protests and strikes. It can spoil your travel impression. Some streets can be closed as well as attractions. You can also have some difficulties with transportation.
#4 UAE
Though this country is safe to visit ignorance of its strict laws can ruin your holiday. Drinking alcohol, kissing and hugging in public are prohibited. You also can't photograph people without their permission.
#5 Italy
Italy is famous for its magnificent landscapes. However, nature in this country can be dangerous. There is a number of active volcanos including Stromboli, Etna and Vesuvius. Though eruptions are spectacular they can be very dangerous and devastating.
#6 Czech Republic
Many tourists say one should be careful with money exchange in the Czech Republic. There is a lot of money exchange offices where commission fee can be very high. Besides, don't hesitate to ask the current exchange rate while it can differ from the one indicated on board.
#7 Egypt
The Red Sea attracts many tourists for diving. However, one should be very careful as coral reefs are very sharp and there is a large number of venomous marine animals. Make sure your scuba diving outfit is of good quality and your diving instructor is a professional.

Personally I think that taking selfies should be banned everywhere, or punishable by a good flogging.

With the way society has become in the last several years, I wouldn't travel abroad anyhow.

Canada is great place to visit. It is a huge country but there is beauty west- east- North and south!

Betty Wiendels, there certainly are lots of stunning places to visit in Canada too! I’ve visited your major cities, and will be back again in July.

Wendy Smart, My daughter Tanya and her family of Cremorne Point, NSW, Australia last visited here in London and Denfield, Ontario, Canada in January 2025 after spending the weekend with friends and their family from Pennsylvania, USA in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Then they skied in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada for one week before returning home to Australia.

Halley Girvitz, I fully agree as I live in London, Ontario, Canada. BC, Alberta, Yukon and NWT are the most beautiful provinces due to majestic mountains and spectacular sceneries. The Maritimes in the Eastern Canada are also lovely.

Susan Golebiewski, You can travel to Canada, where I live. Lots to see in Canada, too. Western and Eastern Canada are gorgeous!

Wendy Smart, sshh don’t tell everyone. It’s better they think we have all those things that will kill them and stay away. Let’s keep our lifestyle here to ourselves. The more I travel the more I know I live in the best country in the world.

Susan Golebiewski, there certainly is, I wish more tourists would spend time outside the major cities.

The beaches of Brioni, in Croatia, are divine. They are sandless, like marble pools, and the water is so clear you can see the bottom of the sea. One problem,. bathe with straw slippers on, because there are thousands of sea urchins and their stings are extremely painful.

No 5, don't forget Volcano the one which gave its name to all others. But personally I would love to go to a safe distance of an erruption (I'm trained as a geologist) when in Italy near Naples I walked up Vesuvius (and visited the Flagrean Fields) and when my 10nyear old daughter asked what I would do if Vesuvius errupted I said bluntly I would put her and her mother on the next plane out and stay behind with my camcorder and cameras! Would still do it though now a lot older.
