Fodor’s No List 2026

"Eight destinations to reconsider in 2026.

Fodor’s No List is the rare travel list that encourages both desire and restraint in the same breath. It’s a reality check wrapped in responsible wanderlust.

We say it year after year–the No List is not a call for boycott. Its purpose is to highlight destinations where tourism is placing unsustainable pressures on the land and local communities."

This year on the list:

1. Antarctica
2. The Canary Islands
3. Glacier National Park
4. Isola Sacra
5. The Jungfrau Region
6. Mexico City
7. Mombasa
8. Montmartre

@bergmeister A somewhat random list, but a very real problem. I'm most familiar with Glacier (the American one, in this case), and it's not only bad there. The entire Mountain West, especially the northern Rockies, has been absolutely overrun in the last decade thanks to Instagram, and much more so since COVID thanks to remote work and "digital nomads."

Fortunately I've visited most of the popular parts I want to see, and it's a big place, so I can keep moving further into the periphery. It's not my job to be a gatekeeper, other than to argue that hiking with a bluetooth speaker should be a federal crime. ;-)

@drdirtbag certainly pretty random. For the Jungfrau region it is not that last year was all of a sudden much worse than previous years (it is bad for a number of years now).

I hope such a list brings a bit more awareness of overtourism, but my expectations are not that high unfortunately.
