that you would not go to again. Post yours and I am not talking typical spring break local places like PCB, Destin, Gulf Shores types we all know. More destination types you heard about and visited but didn’t care for once you went there.

For me it was Disney but some people love that place. Theme parks just aren't really my thing.

A lot of really cool towns in Europe are just overrun with tourists (especially Chinese tourists) making them hard to enjoy.

Colmar France and Hallstatt Austria come to mind. They're still cool places, but unless you get lucky the experiences in these places are usually a bit of a let down IMO.

Vienna is probably at the top of my list for places I was excited about but ultimately unexcited by. But I wouldn't discourage other people from making their own decisions. It's certainly a visually impressive place and has a lot of historical significance.

Dominican Republic. Even though it is cheap as hell it is overpriced for what you get.

Skiing is nice, but the prices can take some of the joy away.

Puerto Rico was kinda boring and relatively expensive since they use the US dollar.

Tulum. Don’t go there for the beaches. The jungle side, mainly the cenotes, are crazy cool
though.

Vegas is certainly not for everyone. It's strange in that it seems like 20-30 years ago you could find really good deals all the time. So, you'd think with all of the growth that those bargains would still be there. But, most of the strip is pretty expensive. I wonder if it's because only a few companies own everything. Anyway, I've tried to slow down a bit when I go there by eating some nice dinners and betting football, which gives you several hours of entertainment. But, it's easy to get sick of after two days if you're hitting clubs and at the tables all the time.

Overrated maybe, but not expensive.

My vote for overrated and expensive would be Disney anything.

Go to smaller, locally owned ski areas.
