#1 At a certain level there is a point.

#2 One cure for overtourism is vastly higher prices. Charge $1000 per capita for a single day's visit to Venice, that should take care of their problems. If that isn't high enough, $10,000, or beyond!
I tell my own tribe to sell citizenship in the tribe to any interested parties for $50 million or so. Lots of wannabes out there with that kind of money to burn.

#3 In Venice and Barcelona they do have a point. The cruise liners definitely should leave Venice.

#4 A high land tax, given back to residents as a dividend will work well, and price out over-tourism.
