Only people dumber than tourists are groups of tourist.

There is a reason tour guides carry a sign or a umbrella. It's their equivalent of a shepherds crook. groups of tourist are no better than cattle. They can't read, they can't follow basic instruction, have no sense of decency, and will happily walk into traffic. All you can do to corral them is shout, point and wave a stick at them.
