Abstract
- Residents in cities such as Barcelona, Amsterdam, and Venice are expressing frustration over the negative impacts of tourism on their quality of life. Tour operators like Intrepid Travel acknowledge these concerns and are working to mitigate the effects of overtourism. They are offering diverse itineraries, supporting smaller businesses, and encouraging travelers to visit second-tier cities. While some residents are joining anti-tourism movements, others recognize the importance of tourism for the economy and culture. The tourism industry is urged to adopt sustainable practices to ensure positive effects on local populations and to address the issues caused by overcrowding. [Extracted from the article]
