Today, there are areas of the world that are so overwhelmed with tourists that they’ve started creating ordinances against them in various ways. In Venice, one of the cities most overrun with tourists in the world, they have outlawed large cruise ships from coming ashore. In Rome, they’ve started giving tickets to loiterers – to people sitting on steps and laying around.
The environmental impact of over-tourism can’t be overstated. So what are travel-thirsty people supposed to do? It’s a big world out there and there are still plenty of places that aren’t overrun with tourists and that would be quite inviting for a quiet get-away.
CNN recently featured a number of locations in this article including:
- Niue
- American Samoa
- Solomon Islands
- Comoros
- Federated States of Micronesia
It’s certainly worth checking out the list and planning your next get-away in a more deserted, quieter location.
