The circular tourism model must be implemented immediately for us not to exceed the ecological ceiling through the polluting practices of our current linear tourism model and to ensure tourism does not fall short on the social factors.  As the tourism has a multiplier effect, it could be a catalyst to move the whole economy towards a circular economy.  This paper proposes three actionable recommendations that are linked to the challenges and solutions: (1) building a network of role-model circular tourism destinations, (2) establishing a shared circular tourism indicator framework, and (3) investing beyond digitalization in data- and AI-driven innovation.
