"Growth in tourist numbers from elsewhere is likely to ease. First, the boost purely from pent-up demand may soon run its course. Second, consumers in advanced economies, particularly the US, will likely moderate their spending plans in the face of an uncertain economic environment. Others may follow as their home economies catch a cold."

Interesting article about the popularity of shared e-scooters and e-bikes in Brisbane.

A recent study found that 80% of visitors said e-scooters enhanced their experience of the city and increased the number of places they were able to see and experience.

Unsurprisingly, Brisbane’s robust cycling infrastructure was cited as a factor. Build the infrastructure and the riders will come! 🛴⚡🚲

Really want to visit this place, called Old Mother Shipton's Cave in North . The cave was apparently her birthplace and home for years, and she was a local legend in around the 1600's as a soothsayer. The ominous glow of the statue's lighting from outside is what gets me the most!

How to reduce overcrowding without damaging the tourism industry? Local government sets a minimum (high) accommodation fee during peak periods.

Hotels are forced to charge more, but that's additional profit for them. The same can be applied to transport to protect destinations from excessive same-day tourism.

I wonder if this has already been experimented somewhere?

Mardi, avant que tout ne s'accélère pour cette rentrée, nous avons fait un petit tour à Sarrant, un charmant petit village médiéval animé par la librairie-tartinerie "Des livres et vous", la maison de l'illustration, une boutique de créateurs, quelques artistes et artisans, un marché des potiers, des concerts dans l'église.

After initial pleas for people to avoid visiting Maui, Hawaiian tourism officials are now encouraging vacationers and sightseers to come again. While the area affected by wildfires is still off-limits, local businesses spared from the disaster say they have seen a steep decline in customers and worry for the economic future of the community. Hotels and airlines are offering discounted rates to lure wary tourists back to the island.
