[quote=Anonymous]Although I loved Greece, I could not help but feel as a "loud tourist" there. Every guard and museum worker had their own set of rules and on more than one occasion were called disrespectful to their culture. It seemed as those made-up rules helped them feel important and provided an occasion to rudely lecture us. For example, my DH did a headstand for the picture with Acropolis on the background (we make one of those pics in every country we go). We were immediately approached by an Acropolis worker who demanded to delete the "disrespectful" picture. Similar happened several times (I honestly don't remember what we did) and at one point an American family who observed us getting in trouble approached and politely asked the worker to review the rules as they were afraid to be disrespectful too:) Other than that, Greeks were very nice and tolerant towards tourists.[/quote]
