English tourist slates Loch Ness as 'monster didn't show up' in TripAdvisor review

An English tourist has slated Loch Ness after complaining that the 'monster didn't show up' in a bizarre one-star TripAdvisor review.

The dad claims to have travelled more than 400 miles from Grimbsy, England, to Inverness in June with his family to see the famous Nessie.

He said was left 'bitterly disappointed' after 'waiting for hours' for Scotland's folklore creature to make an appearance during their holiday.

The holidaymaker, who was with his wife and two children, blasted the experience as 'horrendous' - even branded the Loch Ness monster as 'false advertisement'.

He also took aim Scotland's unpredictable weather and warned other tourists not to visit Loch Ness if they have their heart set on catching a glimpse of Nessie.

The tourist, named Ron, wrote in a Tripadvisor review: "What a disappointment. We travelled 400 miles from Grimsby to see the Loch Ness monster and it didn't show up.

"DON'T GO if you are wanting to see it because it you will end up bitterly disappointed like we were.

"Wife and two kids waited around for hours, view points were crowded and dirty and the weather was terrible one moment sunshine the next it was hard to keep up.

"I thought the whole experience was horrendous I wish I hadn't bothered. It's just a tourist trap and not sure why they would advertise the loch ness monster when it's all a lie."



"There's much better places in Scotland won't be coming back."
