BANS, Rights, Taxes. Can anyone stop wearing?

For years, with Croatia, Croatia, the local population and the municipal government have been a very large number of locations and a large number of places to a crowded park, the size and effect of tourists to repeatedly reduce the measures to reduce the measures of a lot of selfIie-snappers.

However, in the 2024 visitors of the Croatian Ministry of Tourism, compared to 2024, you will never know about the adverse effects of such visitors. “We’ve got another record year by all parameters,” Tourism Minister Tonci Glavina said according to their words.

If there were years worried about the age of 2024, it was the year where a critical mass was taken in places in the world Amsterdam for Canary Islandsand to cause new rules Icelandic for IndonesiaIn addition, when this is known, there was a year of how complex in tourism.

This year, it will take more place measures, but how difficult the tourism can be complicated or even the tourism can be difficult. There is a way to obstruct the attempts to root the tourist tide of competing economic interests.

“The difficult truth is that once came overourism,” said Rachel Dodds, Toronto Metropolitan University tourist management.

A long problem

In early 2010, tourism experts observed that some directions are approaching or transferred. In the middle of the last decade, cities such as Amsterdam and Barcelona began to take initial steps to eliminate the effects of tourism in the infrastructure, housing, environment and quality of life.

However, after the pandemic, the more visits of “revenge” brought the brakes, the efforts of the brakes have become more widespread.

This year, travelers will feel the effect of these efforts. New legislation regulates up to Airbnbs and other short-term rents France, Czech Republic and GreeceIn 2024, the 24.5 percent increase in foreign guests was left behind increased tax – For 20 euros per day – for cruise passengers in Santorini and Mykonos Islands.

Ports Ibiza, Spain, for Juneau, Alaska, At the same time, Doka and Juneau are limited to the number of cruise ships in the work of Juneau, they will be back in the number of passengers allowed every day. Bruges, Belgium, The new hotel stopped construction and Amsterdam, After taking similar measures in 2024, only some habitat took another room to discover that some habitats have exploited another room or bed.

Tourists in Italy will be limited to 20,000 per day in Pompei and in the new legislation Shooting May prevent tourists from using golf carts.

New Zealand Visitors will require 100 New Zealand dollars or a tourist tax with about $ 57 – This is about three times higher than for the most of the last year Galapagos Islands doubled the right to $ 200. In Japan, the mountain settlement Ginzan Onsen The Kyoto, which recently limited tourist numbers, was combined with Fuji and some streets. In South Korea, the government has applied a curfew in a neighborhood seoulun to reduce the tourist.

Will the rules work?

“The main thing is that for many years that have been ‘numbers with no value,’ said those who said, director Marina Novelli said. Continuous Travel and Tourism Advanced Research Center At the University of Nottingham. “Now all such things are in a situation, numbers and tourist taxes such as jet strategies.”

Whether these strategies need to work. Proof suggests we take a long time to give a spotted and effective effect. For example, in 2012, Barcelona, ​​which implemented the first tourist tax in 2012, was restricted in 2015 and launched a new hotel in 2017. Still tourists continued to arrive in record numbers with the top third of 2024. It was only at the end of the annual exchange rate of annual arrival decreased by 0.7 percent more than 0.7 percent since 2023.

Fun numbers are not always the main goal. For example, a short-term rent, for example, is often violated as a solution to the lack of space, and tourist taxes are designed to replace the tension that the wears can place in sources.

“Some places like New Zealand and Hawaii are trying to do it as a regenerative and management measure,” said Ms. Dodds. “In others, like Venice, this punishment thinks, thinking of a tax, thinking of people.”

About a coffee and the cornetto was established in an amount of approximately equal amounts of venice, 5 euros of Venice collapsed with difficulty. Venice seems to be the same conclusion: this year ratio is double up to 10 euros.

Will it be more effective? Ko Koens, a professor of urban tourism at University of Inholland for Applied Sciences, no one knows. “I can tell you that 5 euro will not work.” “But we don’t have enough information to know how high the work is.”

Other measures in Venice also appeared shortly. Recently, he began to direct cruise ships from the city historical center. The initiative will reduce the damage of the environment and has no effect on passenger numbers. In the fall of 2024, Venice predicted 9 percent increase in 9 percent increase due to new ‘distributed’ ports.

In fact, the restriction of passengers in an area can be directed to another. “It’s like a bed of water,” said Mr. Cohers. “Potential problems are increasing by spreading people to other places.”

New York City began to apply a pre-existing ban on short-term rental bodies last year. Some experts have increased by 2024 in the previous year’s hotel rates, 7 percent sent tourists to the surrounding areas. According to the analytics website, New Jersey has become the fastest growing market for AirBNB demand for the AIRBNB request. However, the number of tourists does not appear to reduce the number of New York – The The city expects to exceed the previous record In 2019, 66.6 million in 2025 in 1.4 million.

Dubrovnik and Copenhagen and resistance to restrictions

The biggest obstacle to solve the overteals may be the lack of consensus in fact the problem. As a source of income and employment – in global scale, tourism created a record 1.6 trillion dollars in 2024 – travel is an engine for economic growth.

Because of this role, those who tried to limit the opposition of tourism – witness the final decision to cancel Bali planned moratorium In the construction of the new hotel.

Mato Frankovich, Dubrovnik Mayor, this resist. After reducing the number of cruise ships, the number of tables and chairs in the old city reduced the number of tables and chairs in open cafes, and the number of souvenirs has stated the number of 70 percent, international and local enterprises. “I said the opposition I would destroy the city,” Mr. Frankovich.

Said. This year, the city will reduce the number of taxis; The tour submit applications that regulate the arrival of the bus and visit the visitors to alternative sites at peak; And before leasing their apartments, adopt national legislation requiring housing owners in numerous buildings to reach satisfaction from 80 percent of other residents.

When the municipal or regional bodies are determined to make changes, they can find themselves against a national government that prioritize economic growth.

Accept Copenhagen. The city council confirmed the tourist tax in 2024, “As a beautiful way to prevent the ending end,” said Rasmus Steenberger. However, the National Government is expanding Copenhagen’s airport and recently a year 200 billion croners (approximately $ 28 billion), by 2030, rejected the proposed tourism tax.

Looking for a real solution

Such a conflict believes that many experts need deeper changes.

Ms. Doddds, the Toronto Metropolitan University, said that a solution requires the definition of success. “UN Tourism is still successful in the number of successes, which perpetuates the problems of the extreme problem,” he said. “So, you need to chat, how do we change the measurements of success?”

There are signs that new dimensions are created. Last year, both tombs and Norwegian tourism advertising campaigns and some cruise and tour company volunteered the marathon and mykonos for 2025 and 2026.

However, with international arrival, expected in the world Grow up in 12.4 minutesIn 2025, in 2019, the wears are likely to be disseminated. “I’m not sure that there is a solution,” said Novelli of the University of Nottingham. “People are responsible and said,” What do you know? There is no need to see Venice. I’m not going to go. “
