Staying there

A hotel room in Italy emits about 14.3 kg CO₂e per night under UK Government 2026 factors, so a week adds roughly 100 kg — about 17.3× the carbon of getting there by rail from Milan.

How busy it gets

Lucca records 13.6 overnight stays per resident a year (5,181,703 nights in 2025). A well-visited region, busy in season but not overwhelmed.

Eurostat, nights spent at tourist accommodation by NUTS 3 region, against resident population. Shown for context only — it plays no part in which destinations appear or in what order. Eurostat does not cover the United Kingdom after 2016, nor North Africa or the Levant at all, so this figure is absent for roughly a third of the destinations here.
