Funny Reviews Of Famous Tourist Attractions Around the World

If you’re hoping for a romantic gondola ride along the famous Grand Canal, beware: it might be underwater! Yes, you heard that right – the same canal that’s been the subject of countless honeymoon photos is apparently submerged in water. And while we know Venice is known for its waterways, these tourists was still shocked to find out that all the canals in the city are submerged. How does that work?

The Blue Mosque in Turkey is a famous destination, but apparently, not everyone understands why it’s called “Blue.” This guy, for instance, believes that the mosque should be called “The Red Mosque.” Why you ask? Despite the blue tiles covering the walls and the roof, the red carpet that lines the entire floor makes it look red to him! The thousands of tourists who visit the mosque yearly may disagree with this opinion, but we have to give him points for creativity.

Are you a fan of The Beatles and planning to visit Abbey Road in London? Well, be prepared to risk your life for that iconic photo; at least, that’s what this traveler thinks. Just kidding! The reviewer seems to have missed the fact that it’s a pedestrian crossing, and cars are supposed to give way. Maybe he should brush up on his traffic rules before embarking on his next trip because he seemed a little confused. 

If you’re looking for a hot take on Portugal’s famous Praça do Comercio, then look no further! Apparently, not everyone is a fan of this popular travel destination. Despite being a former palace yard for the Portuguese monarchy and adorned with statues, this one tourist thinks that Praça do Comercio is nothing more than a bunch of concrete. Maybe they were expecting a magical castle with a dragon or a giant Ferris wheel. 

This traveler took a trip to The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt and decided it would be a great idea to climb despite it being illegal. Unsurprisingly, they got hurt and complained the pyramids were too pointy! Did they not realize that the pyramids were giant triangular structures made of stone? They even fought with their tour guide to make this climb happen. What a vacation of a lifetime.

It’s hard to believe that some people can travel across the world for vacation and still have no idea where they are. Take this person who visited the Great Wall of China and had no idea they were even walking on it! Did they think they were just taking a leisurely stroll through the countryside? We can only imagine their surprise when they found out they had just walked one of the most iconic landmarks in the world. 

Ah, the Eiffel Tower — the ultimate symbol of love, right? Well, not for everyone. As it turns out, one person is not happy with this iconic Parisian landmark being associated with romance. They think it’s all a load of croissants! Not only that, but they’re calling out all the lovebirds who flock to the Tower to pose for pictures. What happened to this person? Did they have a breakup on top of the Eiffel Tower?

Stonehenge, one of the world’s most iconic and enigmatic prehistoric monuments, has been standing for over 5,000 years. This person traveled all the way to England for a trip to Stonehenge and had one takeaway. They thought it would make an excellent spot for an arcade and that it should be knocked down! We’re not sure if this person was joking, but if they weren’t, we could only hope their next vacation is better.

The Colosseum in Rome – a true masterpiece of ancient engineering! This monument has been around for over 2,000 years and has even been through wars, fires, and even earthquakes. It’s no wonder that it’s in a bit of a state of disrepair. But apparently, not everyone has gotten the memo. This tourist was outraged by the Colosseum’s appearance and expected it to be brand new! The Colosseum isn’t exactly a luxurious travel destination.

Abbey Road is the London destination where all Beatles fans come to recreate one of the most iconic album covers in history. But what happens when clueless tourists decide to take a stroll on this famous street? Well, for some, it’s a dream travel destination, and for others, it can be quite a disappointment. Take this guy, for example, who was expecting to spot some wild zebras prancing around. Newsflash buddy, London’s not a safari park! 

The Louvre Museum in Paris may house some of the world’s most precious art, but not everyone is impressed. In fact, some tourists are calling it a “mall”! One disgruntled visitor likened the museum to a labyrinth, saying they struggled to find their way out. Most people dream about a trip to Paris and the Louvre, but for this tourist, it seems they might be re-booking a flight home as soon as possible.

Big Ben, the clock that stands tall as a monument to time itself. But did you know that it wasn’t always known as Big Ben? Originally, it was just the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster. But after the bell inside the tower was replaced in 1859 with a larger one, it became known as Big Ben. And let’s be real, who doesn’t love a big bell? This traveler just doesn’t understand the significance. 

Are you an art lover and planning to travel to Florence, Italy? Well, there’s one place you can’t afford to miss, the Uffizi Gallery. It includes Italian Renaissance artworks, like the famous oil painting Medusa. But one tourist was confused and upset when he realized the Medusa painting wasn’t realistic. He was under the impression that the painting would turn them into stone – just like in the Greek myths.

We can all agree that there are two types of people in this world: those who are fascinated and travel to Stonehenge and those who just don’t get it. And then there’s the one tourist who thinks Stonehenge is just a bunch of “plain” “rocks.” Well, pardon us for being impressed by something that’s been standing for over 5,000 years! Maybe this reviewer was expecting something more flashy, like a giant neon sign that says “WELCOME TO STONEHENGE.”

We’ve got a real critic on our hands here! This tourist really let us have it with their review of the Colosseum in Rome. Apparently, it’s not up to their standards because it doesn’t have a roof and looks run down. But it’s over 2000 years old! It’s incredible that it’s still standing at all. We can’t help but laugh at the audacity of someone who thinks they know better than the ancient Romans.

Oh, Arthur’s Seat, the infamous place of chairs! That’s right, when you hear the name, you might expect to see rows and rows of seats as far as the eye can see. But alas, it’s just a beautiful set of hills home to an ancient volcano in Scotland, covered in lush greenery and breathtaking views. The name is misleading, but maybe this guy should’ve researched before hopping on a plane for an entire vacation here.

It seems like a group of friends had an unexpected guest during their trip to the Helsinki Cathedral in Finland! According to this traveler, a few pesky birds decided to join in on their ice cream party and started grabbing their desserts right out of their hands! Now, we’re not sure what kind of ice cream these friends were eating, but it must have been some high-quality stuff for the birds to go after it like that.

Imagine flying to Italy, eagerly anticipating the Leaning Tower of Pisa, only to find out it’s not actually made of pizza! What a disappointment! It’s good that this tourist didn’t go looking for the Colosseum, or they might have been disappointed that they didn’t get a delicious ice cream treat. But hey, who are we to judge? Maybe next time, they’ll find a pyramid made of pyramids or a bridge made of actual rainbows.

Edinburgh Castle: a historic fortress, a cultural gem, and… an overrated tourist trap? According to one traveler, that seems to be the case. While Edinburgh Castle is beloved by history buffs and architectural enthusiasts, this particular visitor wasn’t impressed. They found the castle overrated and complained about the overwhelming number of mannequins scattered throughout the fortress. But did this tourist miss out on the rich history and stunning views that Edinburgh Castle has to offer?

This tourist visited the iconic Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco with the expectation that it would be golden! Can we all take a moment to appreciate the fact that this person didn’t even Google the bridge before going there? But hey, we’re not here to judge…okay, maybe just a little. It’s not like we’re expecting The Eiffel Tower to be made of actual tinfoil, right? Keep reading, folks, because these tourist reviews just keep getting better and better.

Have you ever visited a historical monument and thought, “Eh, it’s not that big of a deal”? This woman certainly did when she saw the Hagia Sophia Cathedral in Turkey. Apparently, this centuries-old monument didn’t impress her at all, and she even complained that it was “falling apart.” We’re not sure what she expected from a building over a thousand years old! Maybe she was hoping for high-tech upgrades or a fresh coat of paint.

This tourist is certainly not impressed with the Sydney Opera House’s design. They traveled all the way to Australia only to complain about the architecture being too pointy. What were they expecting, a big fluffy cloud-like building? It’s good that they’re not in charge of redesigning the Eiffel Tower, or they might suggest making it round instead of pointy. Who knows what this tourist was hoping for, but one thing’s for sure, their review is one of the funniest things we’ve seen.

The Giant’s Causeway is one of the world’s most breathtaking and mysterious natural wonders. But for this tourist, it seems like they missed the memo about the giant part being a legend! This globetrotter was so disappointed that they didn’t see the giant or any leprechauns during their visit that they gave the attraction a one-star review. Sorry to break it to you, buddy, but those are just myths.

Attention all salt lovers! The Wieliczka Salt Mine in Poland is a must-visit destination for travelers who love salt sculptures and chapels. But according to this visitor, the chapels and sculptures made of salt were no big deal. Who needs a chapel made of salt when you can have a chapel made of breadsticks, right? Well, to each their own, but we think that this salt mine is a true gem and a testament to human creativity.

Who would’ve thought that a castle built in the 19th century wouldn’t make the cut? Well, that’s what this tourist thought when they visited Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany! Apparently, the fact that no royalty ever lived in it is enough to take away its “castle” status. We wonder what would’ve happened if they saw a castle built for a king who never even saw it completed! Quite an intense feeling to have over a castle. 

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s…The Statue of Liberty? According to this tourist, The Statue of Liberty should have been more than just a symbol of freedom and democracy. This person was disappointed that Lady Liberty didn’t turn into a giant robot and start battling monsters like Godzilla. Maybe they watched too many movies before their trip to New York City. We can’t blame them for expecting a bit more from the statue.

This guy must have watched one too many action movies and thought that Yellowstone would be a great place to stage his own explosive scene. He really wished a huge explosive eruption would happen and was deeply disappointed it didn’t, insisting it would’ve been cool even if it killed him. Who cares about the safety of millions of visitors and the fragile ecosystem of the national park as long as it looks cool, right?

The London Eye is an iconic sightseeing attraction in London that’s been a favorite spot for tourists from all over the world for years. But for some, it appears the experience wasn’t as great as they had hoped for. Maybe it was a last-minute travel because this tourist had an experience that was so bad they added the London Eye to their personal “worst experiences” list. We’re not sure what could have gone so wrong on the Eye.

We all have different interests and preferences, but sometimes we like to step out of our comfort zone and try new things. That’s exactly what this traveler did when they visited the famous Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. But it seems that the experience didn’t live up to their expectations. This person loves outdoor adventures, like rock climbing and rafting, so it’s no surprise that they found a museum to be a bit dull.

There is the type of people in the world who admire stunning buildings and architecture and those who’d instead catch a soccer game. And then there’s this one tourist who thinks Casa Milà is as dull as dishwater and would rather be glued to the telly watching some footie. How can you not appreciate the beauty of Gaudí’s masterwork? His building is a feast for the eyes with its undulating curves and surrealist details.

The Tate Modern is a must-visit destination if you’re looking for a cultural experience in the UK. But beware, not everyone is a fan of this world-renowned museum. One tourist was left entirely unimpressed. They even said that the museum didn’t look like a museum but rather a multilevel shop. We can only imagine that this person must have missed the incredible collection of modern and contemporary art on display.

Are you the type who loves to travel and explore new places? If so, you’ll know that some locations are too good to miss. One such place is the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland, a stunning sight that reaches heights of up to 120 meters. However, not everyone is a fan of this natural beauty. One person left a scathing review, claiming to hate three things about the Cliffs of Moher: rain, wind, and the dreaded stairs.

When it comes to travel reviews, it’s always good to take them with a grain of salt. Case in point: this Yelp reviewer had some thoughts about Portugal’s Pena Palace. The Pena Palace is a stunning example of Romanticist architecture. But according to this traveler, it’s a little too colorful for its good. They went so far as to compare it to Disneyland – which isn’t exactly known for its architectural grandeur.

Imagine traveling to Buckingham Palace with the expectation of being greeted by the Queen. It’s like showing up at McDonald’s and expecting Ronald McDonald to take your order. Do these people even know what the Queen used to do all day? She was a busy woman, ruling a country and all. She didn’t have time to stand around and wave at every tourist who came her way, although the sight of that did sound entertaining.

Well, it looks like we have another “history expert” who thinks he’s seen it all! This guy visited Big Ben in London and had the audacity to compare it to a Grandfather clock he has at home! According to this traveler, Big Ben was nothing impressive and didn’t even deserve to be called a “tourist attraction.” Big Ben is an iconic landmark and has been an important part of London’s history for over 150 years!

This guy has a new record for the most unusual opinion ever! The Sagrada Familia is an architectural masterpiece, a stunning blend of Gothic and Art Nouveau design that leaves visitors speechless. But apparently, this guy thinks it’s one of the ugliest things he’s ever seen. Well, we can’t all have good taste, can we? But we’re pretty sure the thousands of people who flock to Barcelona every year just to see this masterpiece would beg to differ.

If only the Eiffel Tower weren’t so pointy, it would be the perfect tourist destination, right? I mean, who cares about its historical and cultural significance or the incredible views from the top – all that matters is that it’s not too pointy. It’s not like it’s been an iconic symbol of Paris for over 130 years or anything. Maybe the French could just round out the top for this tourist’s comfort.

According to this travel reviewer, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam isn’t worth the hype. They claim that while the museum has some of Van Gogh’s works, they are not the ones that made him famous. Instead, they are lesser-known pieces that are not as impressive. But hey, it’s kind of weird to visit a museum dedicated to one artist and then tell people to go somewhere else to see that artist’s paintings. 

Well, well, well, it looks like we have a regular Sherlock Holmes over here. This tourist visited the Louvre in Paris and came away with some groundbreaking intel – everything was stolen! That’s right, folks; apparently, the 380,000 objects and 35,000 works of art are all stolen goods from Italy. We don’t know how far off this claim is, but either way, it’s a bold review to leave after visiting one of the most famous art museums in the world.

Oh boy, we have a real visionary on our hands here! Move over, Taj Mahal, because this guy thinks you should have roller coasters and funnel cake stands instead! Who needs a beautiful monument to love and devotion when you can have a cheesy amusement park ride, right? Forget about the history and culture or that it’s a famous tourist attraction; let’s just slap some neon lights on this bad boy and call it a day.
