View submission: What is the most overrated vacation destination?

I had a great time in Atlantic City even though I don't gamble. I stayed in the nicest luxury hotel and the boardwalk was clean, lively and safe. Maybe you stayed on a bad end?

I can't think of any destination that is overrated but I am not a fan of cruising as a vacation. I think cruises are overrated because you spend most of the time on the ship and don't get much time to explore the destinations.

I think one of the appeals of cruise vacations is that they are wildly accessible for disabled and aging bodies. Still get to see the world but at a pace that works for you.

Depends on the cruise. Some cruises are destination-focused. If you want to see a lot of places in a short time, it's efficient bc the ship moves at night. I agree that "party cruises" sound boring.
