The demanding, ethnocentric traveler who finds fault with all that is different abroad is no longer French. Only a few years ago, tourists from France topped the list of least liked visitors in one study. But a recent survey among 5,600 travelers from five countries puts Americans first as the worst.

Americans rank the Dutch, Irish, Swiss, and Australians among the best foreign visitors. What may account for such perceptions?
