No Tourists coming...

[Static VoiD]

I'm playing the Mission where you have to build Jurassic Park (I assume)...
But there are zero tourists arriving at my Island...
One Hotel is full of 'em and all the others are empty.
And they are only coming to this hotel after I razed every hotel and tourist harbor and build them again... Also did that with the airport... But noone comes.
I have an Index of 59, a lot of entertainment set to 'tourist only' and no rebels...
Money isn't a problem because I have a ton of industry, but tourists just are not coming. This makes it impossible to progress because my current mission is to attract a certain type of tourists and since nobody comes I can't complete it.

At the start of the map tourists were coming and leaving, but at some point nobody came anymore.

Is that a bug? Whats going on?

I really can't give you any answers.

Other than to say I got one and ONLY batch of tourists, then afterward no more either. All my hotels and cabins, and night-clubs, restaurants sits empty. It's like they all came and decided, "I'm never coming back to this dump of an island ever again!"

Yeah exactly... I got a single batch of tourists who are living in a single hotel. And that's it. Nobody comes anymore, nobody leaves.

Hey, at least you got them staying and paying you rent. I don't even have that! They left and I'm stuck with the maintenance fee! lol

Question: Does the one full hotel at least turn a profit? Because my experience so far is that every single hotel, no matter how well managed is a money sink.

acutally didn't check... Since money is no concern, as soon as you got enough industry running... Will do later and keep you updated... Though I think that tourism usually yields the most profit by tourists who use entertainment buildings... That's how it worked in past Tropicos.

I'm also in this situation. I'm on that mission with 83 tourist rating, 88 accommodations, tons of attractions, and no tourists showing up by boat or airplane. Very frustrating since the mission requires you to attract tourists...

I was able to eventually beat the level. I just spammed a bunch of tourist stuff across all of the islands and they eventually started showing up. At the time I had millions of dollars in the bank so I wasn't worried about turning a profit on the tourism (I'm pretty confident the entire thing was a major loss).

Something that may have been the problem was the fact that my industry island had caused pollution to bleed over onto the nearby islands, which is where my tourism was. Some of the islands much further away had no pollution, and thus high beauty but the nearby islands were very low beauty, even when spammed with parks. It seemed that the islands further away (with high beauty) had an easier time attracting tourists once I spammed them with a bunch of tourist buildings.

I did put some modern apartments down nearby, but I made sure to drop garbage treatment plants (or whatever they are called) to keep them from polluting the area.

I got back into the game and ran into this problem again. I had 2 airports and one dock and a bit of a pollution problem. I resolved the pollution problem but the visitors didn't return. I bulldozed both airports (but not the dock) and then rebuilt one of them without a metro station add-on. First flight in brought in 40 tourists, and the first boat to the dock (which remained unchanged) brought in 120 tourists.

I don't know exactly what lead to the problem, but it could have been the pollution buildup around the airports which then got them "stuck" in a bad state that broke tourism, or it could have been unrelated to the pollution problem and the airport was just "stuck". Either way, bulldozing airports and rebuilding fixed it this time around.

I assume you're talking about the "Tropico Land" mission part of the base-game (not DLC). Here's how I did it on normal difficulty:

-Have a decent economic base to afford purchases and upgrades
-Build a lot [A LOT] of Fun Fair Piers and Cabarets (Burlesque mode) and crank their efficiency meter to max
-Have your Cyber Sec office constantly creating fake reviews
-Have your Commando Garrison constantly intimidating neighbors
-Build more accommodation buildings
-Build more fun/luxury/tourist buildings and max their efficiencies (be sure to have some spread out too, not concentrated in 1 or 2 locations)
-Decrease pollution and increase beauty if possible
-Every time you complete a task that offers a Tourist-centric reward; take it over the cash.

It's not just about the 'amount' of buildings but the quality of them too. Pay attention to the service quality metrics for buildings and lean into the ones that are naturally very high (such as the Pier and Cabaret). You'll also want to have multiple ways for tourists to arrive (1 Airport is enough but place some more Tourist Docks too).

This can get really expensive to set up but luckily you can 'cheese it' by going deep into debt once you've set up the foundation.

That sounds a lot more like work than fun! I can only imagine the roads and bridges.
