The role of the incoming operator is a key role in the country's economy and in the dynamics of the tourism market.
Incoming operators are therefore the essential, structured and managerially managed business structure within this value system.
Taking on their role and exposure at this time means confronting the increased relevance of overtourism, which comes to represent a growing challenge for many Italian tourist destinations. Incoming travel agents play-increasingly can play-a key role in mitigating these effects through the organized and rational management of tourist flows, and along with them travel agents in general. But the ability to manage flows and conduct them with greater organization also helps for premium products that can be a valuable balm to overtourism, for example in the case of root tourism and other types of tourism with less impact on residents and cities.
