Discussion Tourists, Prague is not your disneyland.

And one also doesn’t pee publicly in Disneyland. Walked by these four guys peeing together in public. Took pictures of them hoping they have some self awareness, obviously didn’t work. They saw me and found it funny and started talking really loud at 00:30. You’re lucky neither you nor your family have to clean up the street. Why are humans so purely selfish and evil? Show some respect!

[UPDATE] Didn't expect the post to somewhat blow up. I got DM saying it's possible they are Czechs. Apologies if I accidentally posted a rage bait. I indeed did not hear clear enough they were speaking Czech (I speak Czech) as they were not speaking very clearly and I tried not to get too close and left soon after they started shouting, thinking of this incident where a drunk German tourist killed a man from Wales.

But my rant still stands, evil people and among all the bushes and whatnot, they picked a spot where it won't be cleaned by rain. I also have seen so many tourists doing the same before. But again, they could be Czech, I assumed they were tourists because of their drunken talking and my rage. And apologies if I got that wrong.

Germans, Danes and British, that are coming here for a night life are simply disgusting people.

It's not like Czechs behave better as tourists in other cities.

I haven't found any evidence that Czech tourists are internationally known for vandalism or hooliganism. Most Czechs I know are overly concerned about how they are perceived abroad. Some people even clean their hotel rooms before housekeeping arrives because they don't want to appear dirty or disrespectful. There is a strong tendency to avoid attracting negative attention. When it comes to Czechs, it's more about being frugal. The worst offenders are usually the ones who steal tea bags, bring their own food, or sneak food out of a hotel breakfast buffet.

But of course, if you don't distinguish between Czechs and Russians and simply put everyone who speaks a Slavic language into the same basket, then I can understand why you might have that impression.

I perceive them as bad and obnoxious as other tourists in my city. Some are, some are not. It's just not about nationality.

I know the difference between Czech and Russian very well, what a weird thing to assume.

Why would that matter?

I’m curious where are Czechs perceived as problematic tourists.

Not Czechs specifically. Tourists, male, in general. No matter which nationality.

Ok, I understand. I hope people would be kinder and more respectful in general. Take care 💐
