10 most stressful cities to visit revealed — six are in the US

A recent study by DIPNDIVE revealed the top 10 least tourist-friendly cities.

The study looked at various unfavourable factors that contribute to poorer experiences.

These included tourist numbers, area, population, noise levels, restaurant prices, transport costs, taxi rates, and crime index.

Zurich is a notoriously expensive city, and the steep prices are reflected in tourist essentials like meals at 26.44 ( 21.86 ) and transport at 4.65 ( 3.85 ) per ticket.

New York City is the most expensive city on this list, with restaurant prices averaging at $ 30 ( 23.60 ) per meal.

London is a really exciting city with 32 boroughs, plus the City of London .

Ultimately, it’s one of the most iconic cities in the world. But that comes with a price. Tourists face extreme crowding, with 187 K visitors per 100 K residents, along with the highest noise levels at 94 . Surprisingly, meals and transport are moderately priced, but overall, navigating the city can feel overwhelming.
