    This is more about how you feel. How would you know if you’re being overcharged? If you can’t overcome that feeling that people are constantly out to take advantage of you, then you’re gonna have a bad time. Like I said, the best way to approach transactions in unfamiliar settings is to ask yourself “is this worth it to me”, rather than asking yourself “would locals pay this much?”. You can always walk away. If the vendor wants the sale, they’ll let you know.

      Wow your argument is not great.

      Put yourself in the USA, a person in front of you gets charged $5 for a coke, you see this transaction happen.

      Then you get to the stand and he says $10 for a coke… how would you feel?

        I mean, I live here. It would be weird, and I’d probably ask why it’s a different price. Depending on the answer, I might or might not buy the coke.

          I do not understand your argumentation.

          The quora question is about how to attract more international tourists. People stated why they avoid visiting, you said “if you don’t like it don’t come”.

          I will flip it back to you. If you don’t like the complaints then don’t ask for international tourists to come.

            This is one person’s answer to that question. Obviously, there are a lot of people who share similar opinions. I do think it is worth exploring or expanding the question itself though. Some examples of relevant questions:

            -What kind of tourist are you trying to attract?

            -How to ensure that the benefits of tourism are enjoyed by those who live and work in popular tourist areas?

            The question as asked, invites any number of terrible answers. If your goal is simply to increase the number of foreigners, you might, for example, subsidize international flights. Fly to India for $250!
