Walkthrough

1
Building Ratio: Maintain a 1:1 ratio of hotels to attractions. This ensures all tourists have something to do, preventing unhappiness and maintaining a high tourism rating.
2
Hotel Types: Hotels are generally inexpensive and have high capacity. The Skyscraper Hotel is a good late-game option, and the Luxury Hotel attracts wealthier tourists. Avoid Motels due to low quality and capacity.
3
Attraction Diversity: Build a variety of attractions to increase your tourism rating. Early suggestions include Beach Site, Spa, Restaurant, Pub, and Souvenir Shop.
4
Expansion Strategy: Start with one dock, three hotels, and three attractions. As hotels fill up, build more hotels and attractions in equal numbers.
5
Edicts: Use edicts to attract specific tourist types and boost tourism/entertainment. This may require specific attractions and a Minister of Economy.
6
Late Game: With power, build all tourism buildings, focusing on diversity. The Skyscraper Hotel can support 2-3 attractions, and the 7-Star Hotel (Modern Times DLC) can support 3-4.
7
Other Tourist Buildings: Consider the Bank (set to offshore banking) and Shopping Mall for additional tourism rating boosts.
8
Crime Prevention: Build a police station near tourist areas to prevent crime, which negatively impacts tourism.
9
Tourist Types: While you can specialize in tourist types (Wealthy, Eco, Slob, Spring Break), diversification is generally recommended. Wealthy tourists spend the most but are harder to please.
10
Profitability: Most tourist buildings are profitable. The dock is free but can be made profitable with the Customs Office. Adjust attraction fees based on tourist spending limits for potential profit increases.
