Im Frühling 2024 protestieren Einheimische zahlreich gegen Übertourismus auf Mallorca. Sie beklagen, sie würden von ihrer Insel verdrängt, könnten sich das Leben dort nicht mehr leisten. Eine alarmierende Entwicklung, die viele touristische Hotspots in Europa betrifft. Im Gespräch mit Palina Milling erzählt Autor Daniel Guthmann über die Kehrseiten von Massentourismus, die inkonsequenten Maßnahmen der Lokalpolitik und die Möglichkeiten, ohne „Heuschreckeneffekt“ zu verreisen.

Sui giornali ancora molto spazio per gli aggiornamenti e le analisi su quanto accade in Medioriente: la guerra tra Israele e Iran e le ipotesi di intervento e mediazione da parte dei leader internazionali. Sette di loro sono impegnati in Canada per l'incontro del G7, con diverse tematiche da discutere: dai conflitti, alle tensioni commerciali. Un racconto di violenza arriva anche dagli Stati Uniti dove una deputata democratica è stata uccisa in casa insieme al marito per motivi politici. Infine, spazio per due diversi temi legati all'estate: il caldo nei luoghi di lavoro e l'overtourism.

Nella mattinata di giovedì 12 giugno, in Degiornalist - Gli Spaccanotizie, è stata ospite Marina Lalli, presidentessa di FederTurismo Confindustria, che ha illustrato le previsioni e le tendenze per il turismo estivo in Italia. Con i nostri Fabiana Paolini e Claudio Chiari, ci ha presentato dati incoraggianti che indicano una crescita del 5-10% nelle prenotazioni rispetto all'anno precedente, che era già stato un anno record. Marina Lalli ha affrontato anche il tema dell'overtourism: «Le persone, che prevedono di viaggiare nel periodo di giugno-settembre, citano proprio l'overtourism come motivo principale per scegliere mete meno battute». Dove andranno gli italiani in vacanza quest'anno? «Gli italiani amano il mare e quindi le nostre due grandi isole, Sicilia e Sardegna, fanno sicuramente da padrone. A ruota seguono la Puglia e la Campania. Però anche i turisti internazionali hanno imparato a scoprire le nostre mete di mare, ma sono anche attratti dalle città d'arte che noi italiani durante i mesi caldissimi tendiamo un po' a evitare», ci spiega Marina. 

What is it like to visit Italy right now, in 2025, and beyond? Well, Kat was just in Italy (right before the Conclave no less), and things are…pretty busy. It's the Jubilee year in Rome and the Vatican. It is a holy year that occurs every 25 years with many events, the chance to go through holy doors in 4 churches in Rome, and more. So, needless to say, it is busy in Rome, the Vatican, and honestly Italy in general. Because who goes to visit Rome and doesn't also say, “Well…while we're already in Italy...” Things are going to be busy throughout this year, but Italy is and will always be popular. Overtourism is still on the rise, and I think tourism will still be high in the years to come in Italy. That being said, there are ways to adjust, adapt, and even alter your plans to make it far more enjoyable. Whether you're hoping to find words of encouragement before your visit to Rome this year or are trying to find lesser visited spots in Italy, this episode has you covered and more!   Relevant Links (may contain affiliate links, meaning if you book through these links, we earn a small commission-at no additional cost to you!): -Information About the Jubilee Year: https://www.iubilaeum2025.va/en.html -Pristine Sistine Tour: https://fas.st/t/NxJysjUh -Complete Vatican Tour: https://fas.st/t/WXvpVxHW -Keys to Open the Sistine Chapel Tour: https://fas.st/t/ZkUFWfpS -Hotels in Rome: -Hotel Residenza San Calisto: https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/J7j0bYy9dr -Princeps Boutique Hotel: https://booking.stay22.com/worldwidehoneymoon/f3hGaI6R6p    Check us out on Substack: Follow for updates, free and paid posts, and exclusive podcast episodes!

Tourism has long been seen as mutually beneficial — allowing travelers to experience new communities and cultures, while also boosting local economies. However, in recent years, the volume of global travel has sparked growing backlash in destinations big and small.

Fehlende Wohnungen, prekäre Arbeitsverhältnisse, Wasserknappheit – die Folgen des Massentourismus treffen viele Einheimische in beliebten Touristenorten wie Mallorca oder Ibiza. Von Daniel Guthmann.

Dieses Jahr ist ein "Heiliges Jahr". Alle 25 Jahre wird ein solches Jubeljahr vom Vatikan ausgerufen. Auf über 30 Millionen Pilger aus aller Welt hat sich die Stadt Rom eingestellt - zusätzlich zu den Touristen. Auch viele Wallfahrer aus den Bayerischen Diözesen werden darunter sein. Die Stadt ist überfüllt, nicht nur wegen des neuen Papstes. Was lässt sich nun in Rom erleben: ein heiliges Jahr oder höllischer Overtourism?

Today we'll be talking about scams of the marijuana and marathon variety, a Pattaya woman's conspiracy to fake a robbery to hide missing money from her British boyfriend, and a little later the bizarre face shoving incident between Emmanuel Macron and his wife as he arrives in Vietnam.

Overtourism and slower more responsible tourism. Pol O' Conghaile has all the latest travel news.All with thanks to Ryanair.

Mallorca ist die größte Insel der Balearen im Mittelmeer und eines der beliebtesten Reiseziele Deutscher Touristen. Kein Wunder, denn die landschaftliche Vielfalt ist kaum zu übertreffen: Geschützte Badebuchten, Kalksteinberge und das zum UNESCO Weltkulturerbe gehörende Gebirge Serra de Tramuntana mit seinen malerischen Olivenhainen, alte Dörfer mit Steinhäusern umgeben von Zitrusplantagen und die Mandelblüte im Frühjahr sind beeindruckend. Berühmt-berüchtigt ist die Insel aber auch für die Partytouristen mit ihren exzessiven Gelagen rund um den Veranstaltungsort “Mega-Park”. Der “Ballermann” ist eine Attraktion besonderer Art. NDR-Reporterin Bettina Peulecke hat die Insel bei ihrem ersten Besuch während Corona mit sehr wenigen Touristen erlebt. Danach bei weiteren, längeren Aufenthalten mit immer wiederkehrenden, ansteigenden Besucherzahlen. „Overtourism“ und Nachhaltigkeit wurde zum vieldiskutierten Thema. Die Insel möchte, wie auch auf der letzten ITB vehement von der balearischen Ministerpräsidentin Marga Prohens propagiert, in Zukunft für nachhaltigen Tourismus stehen. In dieser Folge von "Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti" treffen wir daher Menschen, die sich dafür engagieren: Bei nachhaltiger Olivenöl- und Textilproduktion auf dem alten Anwesen "Son Moragues" in der Tramuntana oder beim Tauchgang mit einer Gruppe junger Männer aus Bremen. Und eine Familie aus dem Schwabenland ist begeistert von einem All-inclusive-Hotel in Port d´Alcudia, in dem Kreislaufwirtschaft schon seit 10 Jahren an der Tagesordnung ist.

It's a crazy time in Rome with the Conclave and the Year of Jubilee. We talk about the movie and it's similarities to the Conclave happening right now. With all of this going on, the tourists are coming earlier and in bigger groups than years past. Planning a trip can help you avoid burnout from crowds, long lines and missing out on the spirit of Italy. We give you three tips that can really help!

As you’ll hear in this discussion, it’s Earth Month, and we couldn’t not have an episode about sustainability efforts within travel. Here, host Rebecca Tobin speaks with Paula Vlammings, the chief impact officer of nonprofit Tourism Cares, and Travel Weekly hospitality editor Christina Jekski about some of the hot topics of 2025. Topics we cover: Solutions to overtourism; why travelers don’t want to pay more for green travel initiatives; and whether recent shifts in U.S. policy will have an impact on sustainability efforts.

And what can we do to fix this situation?That's what I talk about in this episode.I couldn't speak as smoothly as a YouTuber, so it ended up being a bit long.But I hope you'll listen casually—just as background noise.このエピソードスクリプトつくりました。The script herehttps://buymeacoffee.com/mikasensei/extras

Auf Mallorca beginnt die Partysaison. Viele Menschen, die dort leben, sind wenig begeistert. Ciro Krauthausen, Chefredakteur der Mallorca Zeitung, über ihre Sicht auf Gäste. Tourismus-Experte Pascal Mandelartz schlägt mehr Beteiligung der Einheimischen vor. Von WDR 5.

Con il week end di Pasqua torna, e ad un costo raddoppiato, il ticket per entrare a Venezia, mentre la costiera amalfitana reintroduce le targhe alterne e il Parco delle Cinque Terre il senso unico in alcuni sentieri. All'estero Barcellona continua a dichiarare guerra agli affitti brevi che verranno banditi dal 2029 e Amsterdam a scoraggiare il turismo giovanile e low cost. E così tante altre destinazioni vittima dell'overtourism, fenomeno che rischia di minacciare la conservazione del patrimonio e il benessere delle comunità locali, con una frattura spesso evidente tra turisti e residenti. Ma oltre a divieti, numeri chiusi, e limitazioni quali sono le altre strategie per contrastare l'overtourism e conciliare la fragilità di alcuni luoghi con l'attività turistica? In che modo tecnologia e intelligenza artificiale possono aiutare a gestire meglio i flussi? E soprattutto: come incentivare un turismo alternativo e meno concentrato nel tempo e nello spazio, visto che il 70% dei flussi internazionali si riversa solo sull'1% del territorio italiano?

Many places allow tourists to visit with little restrictions. But Bhutan is different. Nestled in the Himalayas, this tiny, land-locked country has implemented a “high-value, low-impact” tourism model, including a fee that tourists have to pay each day that they visit. As more destinations grapple with the effects of overtourism, what can Bhutan teach us about how to manage it?    Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Overtourism is defined as “the impact of tourism on a destination, or parts thereof, that excessively influences perceived quality of life of citizens and/or quality of visitor experiences in a negative way”. It occurs when there are too many visitors to a particular destination. The actual number of visitors is subjective to the capacity a … Continue reading Episode 538: Go There, Not Here! →

Overtourism is one of those sprawling topics that everybody in the travel business has opinions on. Solutions are a bit more complicated, but let's dig in with tourism taxes, diversionary tactics, bans on cruise ships, the rise of "de-marketing," tax credits for better business practices, caps on hotel construction, and other tools that make our lives and our travel plans a bit less frantic.

Der Schweizer Tourismus boomt – 43 Millionen Übernachtungen gab es 2024, über 12 Prozent davon in Graubünden. Doch wann ist zu viel?

Overtourism is a buzz word of late, but not a good one. We've all read about the cities and regions being overrun by tourists, who might be damaging natural or historical sights, or making an area unaffordable for its original residents to stay in. In this episode of The Thoughtful Travel Podcast, I speak with three guests with an interest in overtourism and ask for their thoughts. First up, I speak with Dylan Thuras of Atlas Obscura. Dylan's whole website and podcast are based around encouraging people to learn about, and visit, less popular, more obscure places, so he's been thinking about overtourism and its opposite, undertourism, for many years. I then chat with Jamie Burr, who specialises in marketing for responsible tourism businesses, and therefore also has a significant interest in overtourism and how we might deal with it. Finally, Chris Christou from The End of Tourism podcast talks about some future alternatives for tourism, speaking from the example of his home of Oaxaca in Mexico, that may be one way to mitigate the problems of overtourism.

On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, we explore the issue of overtourism. Destinations around the globe are facing the impact of tourism on local residents, cultures, economies, and the environment. How can we ensure this impact is a positive one, and minimize the conflict and harm that our travel can cause? Correspondent Michelle Aslam speaks with tourism experts on how our travel can be a source of conflict, and a tool for peace. Journalist and author Paige McClanahan speaks about her book The New Tourist: Waking Up to the Power and Perils of Travel. Dr. Kiona, founder of Reroot Travel, speaks about how her company endeavors to take a regenerative approach to tourism, as opposed to an exploitative one. Dr. Freya Higgings-Desbiolles, an academic who studies tourism's potential to foster a more peaceful world, addresses systemic solutions to addressing the conflict caused by overtourism.

2024 is expected to be a record-breaking year for tourism, with more travellers going on holiday than ever before. But hotspots like Venice, Hawaii and Bali are also struggling from overtourism. Rajan Datar, host of the BBC's Travel Show, has been meeting people who live in some of the world's tourism hotspots and tells Lucy Hockings about the impact huge numbers of visitors are having on communities and the environment. At the moment, we're sharing some of our most popular episodes from the past twelve months, including this one.

In September Greek Tourism Minister Olga Kefalogianni announced the introduction of special fees for passengers disembarking from cruise ships at Mykonos, Santorini and some other ports. The fees are part of a broader strategy to manage the resurgence of mass tourism post-covid, reducing some of the negative impacts such as pressure on water supplies, waste management and overcrowding, while spreading the economic benefits more fairly across society. Greece is not alone in considering how to alleviate the tensions arising when exceptional numbers of tourists arrive during peak holiday times. Venice has limited the size of tour groups, charging visitors a daily entry fee and the mayor of Barcelona has pledged to eliminate short-term tourist lets in the city within five years, to ease housing pressures. With revenues from international tourism reaching USD 1.8 trillion last year according to the United Nations World Tourism Organisation, many governments and experts are thinking carefully about how to strike a balance between the economic boost, the tourist experience and the welfare of local communities. Can tourists be enticed away from those Instagram hot spots and what potential solutions could Greece employ to deal with overtourism?

Barcelona has always attracted crowds, but now it's attracting protests from locals angered at the negative consequences of being one of Europe's most popular destinations. This is especially true as large cruise ships can dock close to some of the city's most famous landmarks. On today's show, we look at how cruise ships are both driving revenues and frustrations in Barcelona, and we consider what the city's options are for regulating the flow of visitors.
