Local businesses do not always generate income from tourists. For example, some of the destinations complaining about overtourism are upset at cruise ships, where the tourists do all their eating, drinking, and sleeping on the boat, and they only walk through the city during the day without spending any significant amount of money.
- CryptoPunk 8y agoThe reports I've seen all give a very high average spending level for tourists. I don't think there's any credible argument that they don't inject massive consumer spending into the local economy.
