The Italian city of Venice is to limit the size of tourist groups.<\/p>\n

The restrictions were announced on Saturday in a bid to reduce the pressure of mass tourism on the canal city.<\/p>\n

June will see groups limited to 25 people – roughly half the capacity of a tourist bus.<\/p>\n

The use of loudspeakers will also be banned, the city said in a statement, amid “confusion and disturbances”.<\/p>\n

Elisabetta Pesce, the official with responsibility for the city’s security, said the policies were aimed at improving the movement of groups.<\/p>\n

Venice<\/strong> has already announced plans to trial a new fee for day-trippers.<\/p>\n

Each person will be charged a fee of five euros<\/strong> on 29 peak days between April and mid-July.<\/p>\n

With those days set to include most weekends, the aim is to regulate crowds and encourage longer visits.<\/p>\n

The impact of tourism was cited by the UN cultural agency as a major factor when it twice considered placing Venice on UNESCO’s list<\/strong> of heritage sites in danger.<\/p>\n

The rollout of the day-tripper fees was initially delayed when tourism declined during the COVID pandemic.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
