I'm rather shocked that we didn't get first place, considering the trash that we seem to specialise in exporting via cheap holidays at the moment.
And I'm not sure what makes Germans so rude, if indeed they really are.

If there are Germans that have actually regressed into a state of actual proto-humanity, along the lines of Homo-Erectus, then I have yet to meet them.
If none such Germans exist, then any German could hardly be any worse than the worst British people in this regard.

The thing I noticed about tourists from Scandinavian countries is that they go out, they get drunk and they have a bloody good time, none of this fighting with other tourists from different countries malarky.
When I was in Italy a few years ago I was invited to join a drinking contest with some mad Danes who proceeded to quite easily drink me under the table. We then spent a pleasant few hours slagging the french and the germans off before planning to meet up again and do it all again
Happy days

That's prudence, not rudeness.

At 6am on my holidays?
Its easier to get up at 10 and move their towels while they are busy eating breakfast. I guess that counts as rude though .

Lets just clear something up here: English tourists are rowdy yobos; Scottish ones are ace.

Every year the island of Elba is submerged by visiting German tourists. They go there in groups of hundreds, go to the same restaurants, drink the same beer, eat the same food and talk equally as loud. They eat hard-boiled eggs on the beach, go for runs at 7am and spend the absolute minimum necessary. I speak from experience.
Obviously the 'they' is a generalised description of what I observed in part while I was there, and in my opinion would be a probable reason what hotel staff etc find the germans difficult tourists to deal with.

I read the thread title and assumed it meant that we have the worst tourists coming into the country
I stand by my assumption.

As i always attract tourists who needs directions, i've met a lot of tourist.
Top 3 worst.
1. Germans. They always complain, are never ever thankfull, and always farts. ALWAYS. They also clotter up our roads whit their stupid caravans, and think they own things they look at it.
2. Brits. They suck, they are not nice, they never smile, and if i don't know the answer, they think you're satan. But, they almost always thank you.
3. Americans. They always think they're "norwegians", and insist on talking "norge" (That's norway in norwegian, the correct word would be "norsk") They also belive that since they are norwegian, and i have a black hoodie and look rugged, they have some more right of being anywhere in norway then me. It's annoying.
But, on the bright side, we get a lot of japanese tourists, and they are often

I once saw a group of German tourists playing Aeroplanes in York town centre. They were running aroud using their arms as makeshift wings, and made propeller noises.
My friends and I pondered whether we should pretend to be Spitfires and shoot them down, but decided that could cause a diplomatic incident.

As an American tourist among British and German tourists, I found middle-aged German tourists and old British tourists to be a bit aloof. Young Germans and Brits are mostly the same in their attitudes.
The few Danish and Dutch were more friendly than the Germans and Brits.
German and British women seem to be about the same when it comes to going to bed with an American when everyone has had too much to drink.

One more thing. The Japanese tourists in Heidelberg were always polite. I guess that is why they did not make the list.

oh please, that cant be worse than the dutch, they have more caravans than we do. (the rest of your point is probably true though, we like complaining over here, why blame yourself for any problem whatsoever, if you can blame others instead?)
