S01E011. The Saturation Point
50mMay 29, 2024
What makes a destination attractive? The weather? Culture? Food and shopping? Beaches and activities? And what happens when popularity exceeds capacity?


If money makes the world go round, perhaps nothing makes money go around the world like tourism. It has become one of the fastest growing industries in the world. But have the planet’s must-go-to destinations become victims of their own success? Overbooked explores the complexities of an industry that on one hand caters to the basic human desire of movement and hospitality but on the other, highlights the economic, environmental and social harm of mass travel.
