A man who has visited all 197 countries in the world revealed which city he'd been to was his least favourite.
YouTuber Drew Binsky has made a living travelling around the world and documenting the good and bad times he's had in various locales.
There have been some major highs and lows on his journey, with him saying the Philippines has 'everything you could want in one country' and calling it the nicest place he'd been.
Meanwhile, he said the countries he felt 'most unsafe' in were Libya, Haiti, Afghanistan, Guinea and Somalia, with him saying some of his trips had been 'very scary' in parts of the world many countries would recommend their citizens not travel to.

However, when it comes to his least favourite city of all time he said that it was Conakry in Guinea, with him lamenting that he got stopped by police on a regular basis and 'got caught in a coup' while there.
Describing his time in the city, Drew told his audience: "We've been walking around for about 10 minutes we've already been stopped by two policemen.
"The other policemen put us in his car and they first you need to say that the whole city is insane. Yeah this is by far of my least favourite places in the world.
"Not only because when I arrived there there was a coup there were policemen lined up on the streets with big shield and bulletproof vests like war was about to break out, got in the car and we drove off and he ended up going to the next checkpoint ahead which we're stuck at right now and he ratted us out."

To add insult to injury he also said the place was 'boring' and there was 'nothing to do', so it was a thumbs down on the reasons to visit along with the lengthy list of reasons to stay away from the city.
Drew said the city also 'smelt like trash' with a terrible stench, and added that the people were 'unfriendly' as he was kicked out of a restaurant when he tried to sit down and eat.
The only thing he could recommend was a mosque where he was the only visitor, as apart from that he really had nothing to recommend the journey to Conakry.
While that city takes the top spot he said his second worst city to visit was the Chad capital of N'Djamena where he had another run-in with the police and was attacked in the street by a man with a knife.

However, unlike Guinea he was willing to give the place a second chance.
Taking the bronze medal in this seasoned traveller's list of worst cities to visit was Delhi in India.
Drew said he loved India but hated Delhi, bemoaning the pollution, the traffic and how he could only think of when he was able to get out of there.
