>Americans, along with the British and the French, seems to be the groups that most people complained about when it comes to groups vacationing in Europe.

What's « Europe » ? Different places have very different tourist demographics. The perception of the British in my part of France (we tend to get wealthy, French-speaking types) is very different to that in Amsterdam or Mallorca for example (where the « lads » got touring).

And I can guaranty you that the most universally hated place of origin for tourists across Europe as a whole is China.

Americans are just known for smiling like idiots.
