Zanzibar City

In the main city we constantly being hustled and hassled. We were pushed and pulled by various people trying to get us to buy item or offer us tours. We were even with a guide who just shrugged it off. Beautiful island, the resort we stayed at was fabulous, but the city was something else.

I admit I’ve only been to the border town of Juarez.

Well, no wonder then. The border towns are nothing like the rest of Mexico.

Gotta concur with negative reports on Bratislava. Iron curtain style apt blocks.

I don't disagree about Bratislava. The nice part is the mountains. Farther east

I really liked Bratislava. Obviously it isn't a city you would vacation in
