From drunk and disorderly Brits to fussy French people, a study of the global hotel industry reveals the world's best and worst tourists as people pack their bags and head across oceans during the much loved holiday season.
The French have been named the world's worst tourists because they are cheap, rude and don't attempt to learn foreign languages, a study carried out by Expedia online travel agency said last month.
On the other hand, the Japanese are the best tourists--for the third year running--because they are polite, tidy, quiet and uncomplaining, followed by Candadians as the least likely to whine when a trip goes wrong.
The study interviewed 40,000 hotels worldwide ro rank tourists from 27 countries.
American tourists also got top marks for generosity--as the biggest spenders and tippers--but fell short on other counts as the least tidy, the loudest, the worst complainers and the most badly dressed.
France's rivals for the "worst tourist" title were Spaniards and Greeks, who came near the bottom of the pack in almost every category.
