What’s your worst holiday experience, destination?

I remember going to Sharm el sheikh in 2004 and the place was just full of russians and couldnt stand the cunts. Started at the airport when we were queueing for passport control and suddenly hundreds of them just came storming in and shoved straight in and barged families, children out of the way. That theme continued right through the holiday. Total arrogant arseholes.

I went to Lake Iseo, Italy - beautiful, got talking to hotel/restaurant owner about how nice the place was … he said ‘yes, far better than Lake Como, with its Russian tourists acting obnoxiously’

Konakali in Turkey. I booked a fully inclusive 2 weeks holiday for my girlfriend and myself through a Kazakh travel agent, I was working in Kazakhstan at the time. The hotel was full of Russians and Eastern Europeans, I was the only Western European there. The drinks were names I have never heard of and tasted horrible. When we arrived we were allocated a pool side room, which was nothing more than a converted garage. After a lot of argument we were moved into the main hotel.
The food was terrible and the behavior of the guest was worse, you would think they had never seen food before, they queued up for the opening of the restaurant doors and made a beeline for the best stuff and piled their plates so high it was impossible for them to eat half of it never mind all. If you were 10 minutes late all the good stuff was gone and only scabby fish was left. In the afternoon they brought cake out to the pool bar, again the queue started early and the first ones there piled their plates so high it was impossible to eat all of it, after 5 mins only crumbs were left.
There was also a game of banging the room doors and shouting "Russia" at the top of their voices, very strange.
The sun loungers round the pool were taken very early so we ended up going to the beach most days and paying for loungers there.
Needless to say we ate out every evening, so paying for a fully inclusive and being hungry and thirsty all day we I ended up paying for evening meals as well.
I will never go to a hotel that is 100% Russian guests again!!

Have witnessed the same behaviour all over Europe from the Russians. The absolute scum of the earth, vile vile people. The French are arrogant and stink like horseshit, but the Russians are something else; the one nation you don't want to be stuck living amongst.

Only went on a plane when I was 51 (was shit scared of flying before that). Had some lovely holidays since then (Amsterdam, Rhodes, Nerja, Berlin) but didn't particularly like Zante.
Boiling to death in a town that caters mainly for kids was a wrong move, but even if it hadn't been geared for mainly that I still wouldn't go back. Can't be arsed with sitting in the middle of an island where the sun is beating down relentlessly, yet you feel as if the infrastructure is making it up as it goes along and it really doesn't give a shit because you are here now and nowhere else to spend your money.

I went to Zante, I think late 90`s on my own, I went in ,I think late October and the weather was perfect, the place was empty. Got a nice hotel quite cheap, it was hardly 5% full, loved the food, had a good time to be honest. Would never go there in july/aug, christ I bet its a lot hotter than here.
