A new study has ranked America’s top tourist traps using TripAdvisor reviews. The Space Needle in Seattle topped the list, with visitors calling the view “underwhelming” and the $40 admission “not worth it.” Busch Gardens in Tampa came second, with guests describing the park as “tired” and “in need of modernization.” Colonial Williamsburg placed third, with complaints about high prices and closed attractions. Graceland in Memphis was fourth, where some visitors said ticket costs were “way too expensive,” ranging from $84 to $250. The Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta rounded out the top five, with tourists frustrated by crowds and high ticket prices. Each attraction still maintains high overall TripAdvisor ratings despite the criticism. (Story URL)
