The most complained about tourist attractions in the world

in partnership with

TripAdvisor is full of comments from disgruntled tourists who've visited famous attractions and found them lacking. Here's a full rundown of the most complained about attractions, according to a study from online casino site Mr Q.

"Everything we wanted to see was caged off by big fences and lots of security, so we couldn't even get close enough for a decent picture."

6. The White House

Evidently some prefer more modern forms of keeping track of time, with one visitor writing: "All I can say is my Apple Watch is more accurate and prettier to look at."

5. Big Ben

Most reviews commented on the lack of access, with the best spots for taking photos being from a distance.

4. The Hollywood Sign

"A messy, incomplete example of some large scale rubble left in a vague circle. The walk from the car park is the best thing about this day out."

3. STONEHENGE

Many reviewers criticised the attraction’s lack of crowd control, saying they experienced panic attacks as people rushed to enter.

2. Palace of Versailles

The Hollywood Walk of Fame topped the list, with many lamenting the lack of cleanliness and the number of homeless people living on the street.
