Change in monthly tourist arrivals in Europe 2023 | Statista

In 2023, the number of international tourist arrivals in Europe nearly caught up with the figures reported before the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, being six percent lower than in 2019. That said, this scenario changed significantly based on each region. For instance, while international arrivals in Southern/Mediterranean Europe exceeded pre-pandemic levels in October 2023, Central/Eastern Europe recorded a 25 percent decline in arrivals that month compared to October 2019.
