Heavy is the head that wears the mouse ears, as the old saying goes.
Orlando is the most overrated and disappointing city in the world, according to reviews on the online travel platform Tripadvisor. The City Beautiful placed number one in a recent report that analyzed which cities left tourists feeling ‘underwhelmed’ and ‘disappointed.’
The report was compiled by Radical Storage, a luggage company based in the United Kingdom. The research was done to find which cities around the world had tourists experiencing “Paris Syndrome,” a condition in which tourists are left disheartened as their vacation destination did not live up to expectations.
The assessment, spotted by Orlando website Bungalower, revealed Orlando had the highest number of complaints, with visitors feeling the city did not deliver the magic they had hoped for. Out of over 9,000 reviews, nearly one out of five tourists left reviews on Tripadvisor venting about how ‘underwhelming’ and let down they felt about their visit.
Over 19 percent of visitors left negative comments about Orlando in their reviews on the website, as reported by The Daily Mail. Most complaints frequently mentioned increased prices at theme parks and large crowds. About 8.4 percent of reviews included mentions of ‘rude’ people’, placing right behind New York City.
Orlando also contains the highest mentions of words such as ‘terrible’ and ‘disappointing’, with 7.4 percent of reviews including such descriptions.
The research report analyzed 826,292 Tripadvisor reviews of 100 of the world’s most visited tourist attractions. Out of 95 global cities, Orlando had the most negative reviews.
