Greece doubles down on its anti-cruise rebellion

• Greece will charge cruise passengers €20 ($22) to visit some of its most popular islands.
• The tax aims to curb tourism and protect local environments during summer.
• Other destinations like Venice have also implemented tourist levies to manage crowds.

Greece just announced a new plan to keep a handle on tourism.

Speaking at a trade fair in Thessaloniki over the weekend, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said he plans to introduce a €20 ($22) fee for passengers arriving at ports in some of its most popular islands such as Santorini and Mykonos during the peak summer months.
