I have a funny feeling your talk about chinese tourists and others from poorer countries. Ice in drinks is rarer due to concerns about tap water. Chinese also seemed to greatly prefer all drinks to be warm or hot....the concept of ice cold drinks seems to be no the norm. A good many of these tourists are tours....some of them straight up rip offs so they take it out on locals. Imagine if you went to paris and found out your tour group was charging you 20% higher for everything....I'd be pissed off too. I'm susprised about redwoods... The tourist thing is a language barrier....When I lived abroad, I noticed americans did the same thing too including many expats.
