A man who has visited 190 countries shared his thoughts on the most ‘annoying’ place he’s experienced. Travel content thrives on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, with Drew Binsky leading the charge, having visited every country in the world. Another notable traveller is Luca Pferdmenges, a 22-year-old from Germany, who documents his journeys for his nearly three million TikTok followers.
In a recent interview, Luca revealed the country he finds least appealing. “Egypt is the most annoying country for tourists,” he said, without providing further details.
He also mentioned other destinations he finds overly touristy, such as Egypt, France, the Maldives, Mauritius, Seychelles, and most of the Caribbean’s Lesser Antilles. “The Caribbean is super-overrated, at least the Lesser Antilles,” he noted.
While destinations like Greece, Spain, and France are popular among tourists worldwide, Luca highlighted lesser-known countries worth visiting. “Uzbekistan, the Baltic countries, Myanmar, North Macedonia, Bhutan, Montenegro, and many Latin American countries are often overlooked but more exciting and affordable,” he said. He particularly praised Bhutan and Myanmar as hidden gems.
Among his least favourite places, Luca pointed to Belgium, specifically Brussels, describing it as ‘unsafe’ and ‘ugly’. “It feels super unsafe at night and many Belgian cities are grey and depressing, especially in winter,” he explained.
When it comes to favourites, Luca finds it hard to choose just one. He listed Mexico, Brazil, Israel, Spain, Bhutan, the UK, UAE, Portugal, and Austria among his top picks.
Luca’s career as a travel content creator is a dream for many. “I enjoy my life as a content creator. The freedom it gives me is incredible, and I’m very grateful to travel for a living,” he shared.
