Tourists, what's the point?

[lauroon]

What is the point of having tourists in town and all the pain those are causing with all their needs. What are they bringing as a "reward". Not clear to me, can someone explain?

Literally, their Cafes and restaurants bring bonuses to your regular citizens too, along with a lot more money producing. Lastly, its to just make your city feel even more alive, its one of the most detailed DLCs so far most are saying.

Thanks for letting me know.
Anyway money is not an issue in late games. Investors give more money, I could ever spend Yes, it adds a new level of citizens and is also providing an addiional monument however, I wonder if that is really worth the pain to keep the tourists happy and to implement new infrastructure.

It just adds a new challenge to make the city more alive, extra end game stuff mainly which is awesome.

If it doesnt look interesting than dont buy it.

According to the sort of food your restaurants are serving, you can have a mood bonus (pretty useless) and a reduction of consommation of food (chocolate, coffee included) within their radius. The steel tower provides too a +10% of population within its radius.
This DLC is a stand-alone but is clearly optimized if you own the other DLCs as it uses food from the Land of Lions, Artic, and the palace and docks are providing a boost of tourism.

Sadly, the new luxuary products request more space in the new world, for the 4 new sorts of plantations. Plus the tourists will need a total new logistic, adding more trades between islands.
