Can you share some horror travel stories?

I went on a cruise and got really seasick. But that wasn't the worst part. The ship had a sewage problem and there was a horrible smell all over. We couldn't enjoy any of the amenities and just wanted to get off the ship as soon as possible.

One horror story is getting lost in a remote forest while solo traveling. I followed a so - called shortcut on the map but it led me to a dense, unmarked part of the forest. I was completely disoriented, with no cell signal. I had to rely on basic survival skills like finding a stream and following it until I found a small village. It was terrifying, thinking I might be stuck there forever.

Well, once I heard about a traveler in Romania who got lost in a forest while hiking. The forest was really dense and he couldn't find his way back. As night fell, strange noises started coming from all around. He was terrified, thinking there might be wild animals. After hours of wandering, he finally found a small cabin. Luckily, the people there were kind and helped him get back to the nearest town.

One horror story is about getting lost in the Sahara. A traveler thought they could easily cross a certain part on their own. But they miscalculated the distance and water supply. They ran out of water and got severely dehydrated. It was a terrifying experience waiting for rescue, with the vast desert all around and no sign of help for days.

One horror story is about a tourist who got scammed by a tuk - tuk driver. The driver promised to take him to a famous temple but instead took him to a bunch of overpriced souvenir shops where the tourist was pressured to buy things. When he finally realized and demanded to go to the temple, the driver asked for an exorbitant amount of money.

Well, I was on a business travel and my luggage got lost. I had all my important documents and presentation materials in it. I had to rush to buy new clothes for the meetings and recreate the presentation materials as best as I could. It was extremely stressful and made the whole trip a nightmare.

I once had a bad experience in an Indian hotel. There were bugs everywhere in the room. I complained to the staff but they were unresponsive and didn't seem to care at all. It was really disgusting and made my stay a nightmare.

Sure. One travel horror story is when a traveler lost all their important documents including passport and money during a trip in a foreign country. They had to go through a lot of trouble with the embassy to get emergency travel documents and borrow money from strangers just to survive until they could get some help from their family.

Sure. One common horror story is flight disasters. Like being stuck on a plane for hours on end due to mechanical problems or bad weather. I heard about a flight that was diverted to an unknown airport in the middle of nowhere, and passengers had to wait for days without proper accommodation or information.

Sure. There was a case where a tourist's passport was stolen while they were at a crowded market. They had to go through a lot of hassle to get it replaced and it really disrupted their travel plans. Another is about a person who went for a massage at a place that looked legitimate but ended up getting a really bad massage that left them with bruises because the masseur was not properly trained.
