Countries Where Tourists Are No Longer Welcome

15. Dubrovnik, Croatia: Limiting Cruise Ship Crowds

Dubrovnik's iconic Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, struggles under the immense pressure of cruise ship passengers. To manage the suffocating crowds that clog its narrow streets, the city has actively worked with cruise lines to cap the number of daily arrivals, aiming for no more than two large ships simultaneously and limiting disembarking passengers. They've also installed cameras to monitor crowd levels and divert visitors. This isn't a ban, but a desperate measure to preserve the quality of the visitor experience and the livability of the historic center for its residents.
