Thursday's "Rethinking overtourism: are we ready for real accountability?" session saw Chris Fair, chief executive of tourism strategy firm Resonance; Jo Reeve, Intrepid Travel's UK and Ireland general manager; and Tolene van der Merwe, the Malta Tourism Authority's UK and Ireland director debate the countries they felt had been successful at easing pressure on its communities.
Reeve highlighted Venice and Copenhagen as "good examples" of where governments had taken the right action to regulate the flow of tourism.
