Let's be honest — travel is fun, but the ordeal of going through security screening isn't quite as enjoyable. The anticipation of a trip can be thrilling, whether you're going to explore one of California's widest stretches of beach or heading to a hill town in Italy that Rick Steves thinks is the most underrated. Think of all that planning — researching destinations, deciding where and when to go, and then making the bookings. Getting to the airport adds to that bubbling excitement, the realization that the trip is finally happening. But after dropping off your luggage, the joy of travel can dissipate as a sinking sensation in your stomach takes hold.

I've experienced many of the world's most famous tourist attractions. Some in Italy, Japan, and other countries have really not lived up to the hype.

I've visited over 40 countries. These are 6 of the most overrated tourist attractions I've ever seen.

Rome, GA

Thirty-five million people visited Rome in 2023. Maybe you were one of them, or you plan on going in the near future. The Eternal City is full of incredible historic sights like the Forum, the Trevi Fountain, the museums full of artifacts, or the Spanish Steps. It's a pretty good bet you'll stop by the Colosseum (above) where gladiators once fought battles for the adoration (or scorn) of the roaring crowds. While waiting in line to see this piece of history, or as you leave, you may see people dressed up as those gladiators. In fact, you may want a picture with them. That's what they show up there for, however, these pictures are anything but free.
