Send us Fan Mail (https://www.buzzsprout.com/2111088/fan_mail/new) The term "overtourism" has been used quite a bit recently in the travel industry and according to some, it's leading to another term called "tourism-phobia" where locals are blaming tourists for their deteriorating quality of life. And it's causing a rise in social unrest and tourism rejection. So on this week's podcast travel expert Onanta Forbes will join us to discuss some of the destinations where there has been an increase in anti-tourism. Fortunately, Japan isn't one of those places so also this week we'll talk about cycling tours in Japan with a company called O Cycle Japan. And, Ken Stewart from Crowfoot Travel Solutions will be along to give us a few destination ideas and travel deals with our Weekly Round Up.Β  Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/randyu)
