Worst And Best Cities You've Visited.

Worst : Rome, didn't live up to the hype and the people were only bothered about scamming you.

Best: Munich: Amazing place, can't sum it up how nice it is.
Valencia: Good mix of tourism and history.

Other good mentions to Santander, Hamburg, Bergen and Paris. Didn't really like Lisbon either.

best: Bergen and Rejkyavik

worst: Ipswich and Bilbao

Bilbao was alright I thought, okay there isn't a major amount there to do but it's clean & the nightlife was relaxed. There was zero trouble there as well.

Best is probably Paris, worst... Sheffield sticks out as a bad one.


I had a bad time in Bilbao Ban mate. Cocked up the exchange rate at a cash machine and ended up withdrawing pretty much my life savings, which we then went on a monumental piss up with and did a load of dosh in a casino. At the time, it even felt like £500 was going an awful way, I just never thought to check.

I felt like a right wanker when I realised I'd pissed thousands away.

Shit...Fair play then.

There's more to do in Cities over here but I liked how clean the basque country is, not a scally in sight. At the time I was smoking & every time I stopped someone for a lighter (couldn't find a shop to buy one) everyone was extremely polite, no matter what the age & most spoke English.

Me & the ex went in a few bars every night & everyone was dressed so smartly, with a relaxed vibe.

The only issue is apart from a few bars/ tapas restaurants & the footy stadium, there's not much to go & see there. The museum was crap, nice park mind you.

You've got to be kidding?
2nd only to NY for me... and I've travelled a lot...

What didn't you like?

I was ill from the moment i stepped off the flight so not got good memories of the place

Its probably a great place but i didnt get to see much of it so goes down as one of the worst cities ive been,as i pretty much have liked most places ive been abroad
 
Best.

New York and Stockholm.

Totally different cities but both equally brilliant in their own way.

Worst.

Venice and Paris.

Venice was packed, hot and stank. Paris is what it is, an over priced shit hole full of arrogant twats who upon hearing a slight British accent decide to ignore you or go very slowly. Very. S L O W L Y. I lived just outside the place for a year and often visited in the first few months before not bothering later on.

Best - Budapest, beautiful city being reborn spectacularly.
Worst - Rome, dirt rat infested dump.

Rome the worst??? Please....

Only city I've ever seen a rat run across the road in front of me. It's also ruined by mindless graffiti on everything.
