The French are the worst tourists
According to a study by the global hotel industry, French people are the world’s worst tourists, AFP reports.
TNS Infratest asked 40,000 hotels worldwide to rank tourists from 27 countries based on nine criteria, from their politeness to their willingness to tip.
Clean and tidy, polite, quiet and uncomplaining, Japanese tourists came top of the crop for the third year running. Britons came second for their overall behaviour, politeness, quietness and even elegance — second for dress sense only to the Italians.
But French holidaymakers and business travellers were the least generous or ready to tip, and ranked next-to-last for their overall behaviour and politeness, according to the report.
The French were the least ready to try a new language, unlike US tourists who were most likely to swallow their pride and order a pizza, baguette or a paella in the local lingo.
