Few things are more aggravating than people not respecting things that ought to be respected, like mother nature, sites of great significance, or stop signs, for that matter. And unfortunately, many of them are often disrespected by entitled tourists, who tend to feel like the world is their playground.
If you haven’t encountered any of them yet, first and foremost, consider yourself lucky, and secondly, brace yourself for some vexing images. We have found pictures of some of the most entitled and ignorant tourists out there, and put them on this list, which could be considered a manual on what not to do when traveling. Scroll down to find them below, but do it at your own risk, as you might get quite annoyed before even reaching the end of the list.
Below you will also find Bored Panda’s interviews with the team of Arctic Adventures, a tour operator in Iceland, as well as professor at the Ted Rogers School of Hospitality and Tourism Management, Dr. Rachel Dodds, who were kind enough to answer a few of our questions about entitled tourists.

While tourists flock to cities all over the world, not all of them are equally excited to greet them. According to The Independent, some places, such as Barcelona in Spain, Santorini in Greece, Koh Khai islands in Thailand, and Cinque Terre in Italy, just to name a few, seem to resent tourists for one reason or another. Needless to say, visitors such as the ones on this list do not make their reputation any better; and neither do the ones on this list.
