Europe’s most overcrowded city has 30 times more tourists than locals - full list (Image: Getty) Link copied The summer rents plenty of opportunities to visit some of Europe ’s most popular touristic hotspots. However, it’s important to choose wisely, as some destinations can be overcrowded and turn a holiday into a sour experience. A study conducted by the team at Holidu identified earlier this year the cities with the highest ratio of tourists to residents.

While London may come to mind, the UK capital did not make the ranking. Instead, a rather unexpected destination took the top spot. Have you been to any of these hotspots? Share your experience in the comments.

10. Tallinn Holidu reports that Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, sees 10 tourists for every resident. The city's enchanting old town, with its fairytale-like charm, is the main attraction, drawing many visitors, particularly from cruise ships.

While Tallinn's popularity is well-deserved, Estonia also offers lesser-known gems like Lahemaa National Park, perfect for those looking to explore beyond the city. (Image: Getty) Link copied 9. Dublin Dublin ranks just inside the top 10, with 11 tourists for every resident.

Temple Bar is one of the city's most crowded spots, especially at night, so those who prefer quieter experiences might want to steer clear. Although city officials have considered introducing a tourist tax, those plans have currently stalled. (Image: Getty) Link copied SUBSCRIBE Invalid email We us.
