"I work at Disneyland and come in contact with tourists from all over the world on a daily basis. My co-workers and I all agree that Israelis are the most consistently rude tourists we have the misfortune to deal with."
We thought we'd heard all we could about the world's worst tourists. That is until we came across a BBC discussion from a couple of years back said that it's not only British holidaymakers to watch out for: Israelis join them at the top (or bottom?) of the list. According to workers in the tourist industry who joined the discussion, Israeli tourists can be noisy, arrogant and obnoxious. An amusement park employee had this to say:

Another commenter said they'd heard guides in Thailand who show around groups of Israeli tourists are paid double "because it's such hard work!" At this point, we're not sure which country can brag that its tourists are the absolute worst, but it's surprising just how many nationalities are in the running. Perhaps we should do away with tourists altogether?
