Hi! It's dificult to describe best or worst, it is so subjective. The worst, in my opinion was Venice. It has to be seen however and the city itself is memorable. The crowds, so so food and service and again especially the crowds. The best is very dificult also, The Czech Republic, Budapest, the Dolomites, and several other places. Just enjoy it all!

Monique -- Agree with you 100% about St. Thomas (Just AWFUL!), but I have also heard the exact same thing about the Dominican Republic and all of the poverty there (haven't been there). So, WHY is it so special to YOU?!?
