So my friends and I decided that on this trip, we would all just speak French to each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Two months into his second term, President Trump has set off panic in Europe about the potential collapse of alliances; inspired boycotts of American products in Canada; heightened tensions between Denmark and Greenland over the island\u2019s independence; and prompted protests in <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dU6cMhfun9M\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Istanbul<\/a> and <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/ticotimes.net\/2025\/02\/01\/panama-protests-erupt-as-rubio-arrives-amid-canal-dispute\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Panama<\/a> over the possibility of U.S. territorial expansion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">His proposals are also making some Americans reconsider their travel plans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<h2 class=\"css-1u37br4 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-8fea4ce\">Behavior adjustments<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Since the inauguration, some agencies are noticing a drop in sales for international travel by Americans. Tour operators are fielding inquiries from customers concerned about how they will be received abroad. The risk management company Global Rescue recently conducted <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.globalrescue.com\/common\/pressrelease\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">a survey<\/a> that found that 72 percent of \u201cexperienced\u201d U.S. travelers expected Americans to be less welcome abroad this year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The nervousness does not seem to have translated into widespread cancellations, but social media and travel forums are filled with Americans asking variations of \u201cWill they hate us?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Christine Bauer, a New Hampshire retiree who is planning a trip to France, asked travelers on a <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ricksteves.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Rick Steves\u2019 Europe<\/a> forum for insight into how the French were responding to American foreign policy changes. A few days later, she grew more worried when \u201cTrump and Musk began insulting NATO and allied countries.\u201d She and her husband haven\u2019t made any changes \u201cat least for now,\u201d but they are \u201choping that travel doesn\u2019t become more unsafe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Vicci Jaffe, 68, has second thoughts about an excursion to Berlin this fall. Her concern stems not only from the rise of the far right in Germany, but also from political changes at home. \u201cHow will I be regarded while in Berlin?\u201d she asked. \u201cAt the very least, I am embarrassed, but also now afraid of retribution or violence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Some people, including Mr. Verhaeghe, who is traveling to Mexico using his second, European, passport, are adjusting their behavior. Cheryl Carlson, 63, a Chicago educator, plans to reveal her nationality ahead of time to the owners of the accommodations she and her husband will be staying in during a trip to Canada \u201cto make sure our presence would not cause a small business to feel uncomfortable hosting us.\u201d Peter Serkian, 60, who travels to Canada twice a month from Farmington Hills, Mich., pays in Canadian dollars, not U.S. dollars. \u201cI try to hide that I am an American,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-1u37br4 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-2f3f06d7\">Feeling spooked<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Those measures are preventative; none of the interviewees for this article have actually experienced anti-American sentiment. But the nervousness is taking its toll. Cameron Hewitt, content and editorial director for <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ricksteves.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Rick Steves\u2019 Europe<\/a>, has seen a dip in guidebook sales, \u201cliterally starting the day of the inauguration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Lisa Wirth, an owner of Ataxito, which offers tours to Oaxaca, Mexico, said that some prospective guests are feeling spooked. \u201cWe had several American travelers decide to cancel our February weeklong tour, either because the travel partners they had planned on traveling with backed out due to concerns regarding safety in Mexico or because the current administration and their anxiety around it caused them to pause any trip decisions in the short term,\u201d she said. Others are postponing because of \u201cconcerns regarding inflation and job losses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Jack Ezon, founder of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.embarkbeyond.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Embark Beyond<\/a>, a New York-based luxury travel company, had a client cancel a trip to Mexico. \u201cThey were doing a birthday-party trip and had booked out the whole hotel,\u201d he said. \u201cBut this was right after the whole tariff thing, and their security team said, \u2018Don\u2019t go, there\u2019s anti-American sentiment, it\u2019s going to be too dangerous.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">That fear has not been borne out in the experience of other clients, said Mr. Ezon, who added that bookings to Mexico have rebounded. And sales to Europe are booming. \u201cEver since Covid, the recovery from crisis is a lot faster,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">It\u2019s hard to pinpoint the cause for travelers\u2019 unease. Plane crashes, tariffs and stock market instability have contributed, said Jeff Roy, executive vice president of the tour company <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gocollette.com\/en\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Collette<\/a>. \u201cWe\u2019ve been a little bit behind for the last four to five weeks from what we were producing last year at this time,\u201d Mr. Roy said. \u201cThere\u2019s so much swirling around right now, it\u2019s really hard to know exactly what\u2019s causing the change.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">What Mr. Roy describes as \u201cmild trepidation\u201d is playing out more in nervous calls than in cancellations. And because many bookings are made far in advance, he\u2019s not too worried about this year. If the uncertainty continues, he said, \u201cI don\u2019t know about 2026.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-5\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<h2 class=\"css-1u37br4 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-6fd9e5b0\">Unexpected interest<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A few destinations have experienced increased interest since Mr. Trump took office. After he said that he wanted the United States to \u201cbuy\u201d Greenland \u2014 one of The New York Times\u2019s <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/shared\/v2\/interactive\/2025\/travel\/places-to-travel-destinations-2025\/greenland.html\" title=\"\">52 Places to Go in 2025<\/a> \u2014 the Greenland tourist authority said it was seeing evidence of \u201cpiqued curiosity about the destination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The new attention has had a similar effect on Panama, whose canal Mr. Trump has said he wants the United States to reclaim. Carlos Ivan Espinosa, the owner of <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.panamacanaltrips.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Panama Canal Tours<\/a>, said his company has experienced a significant increase in bookings by U.S. tourists. \u201cPresident Trump\u2019s declarations,\u201d he said, \u201care awakening curiosity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">That isn\u2019t to say there haven\u2019t been protests against American rhetoric, notably in Canada, where citizens have objected to Mr. Trump\u2019s tariffs as well as his expressed desire to turn the country into \u201cthe 51st state.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But those protests aren\u2019t directed against American individuals, said Donna Salter, a retired journalist in Vancouver. She, like many Canadians, is swearing off travel to the United States for the duration of this administration but welcomes Americans. \u201cWe love Americans and we also love the American dollar, especially now,\u201d Ms. Salter said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-6\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Not all foreigners are receptive. One TikTok user <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@vikingwarriorprincess111\/video\/7468307504267611435\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">in Scotland<\/a> told \u201cMAGA tourists\u201d that they are not welcome, and a farmer on the Danish island of Bornholm <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dr.dk\/nyheder\/regionale\/bornholm\/efter-trumps-meldinger-om-groenland-knud-tager-ikke-imod-amerikanske\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">terminated an agreement<\/a> he had with a U.S. travel agency to receive tourists in his home for coffee and a chat. \u201cI would feel ridiculous if I had to discuss democracy with representatives of such a government,\u201d Knud Andersen, the farmer, told the Danish broadcaster DR.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">On a trip to Italy, Rebecca Andersons, of California, and her family had a taxi driver whose criticisms of American politics started with Ronald Reagan and ended with Mr. Trump. Ms. Andersons told him they were \u201ctoo young to vote for Reagan and actually are Californians who voted for Harris.\u201d Apparently forgiven, they later found themselves singing along with the driver to \u201cVolare.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Other Americans are adopting tactics designed to deflect criticism, like answering the question \u201cWhere are you from?\u201d with their state\u2019s name. Sue Rook Nichols from California ordered buttons off Etsy that read, \u201cI didn\u2019t vote for him.\u201d She plans to wear them on a trip to Europe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The tactics may not be necessary. Mariana Hamman, who owns a tour agency in Mexico, said that none of her colleagues had reported encountering anti-American sentiment. \u201cSometimes you see \u2018Go home, gringo\u2019 graffiti,\u201d she said. \u201cBut that\u2019s about overtourism, not politics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">When David Rojas-Klein, of California, traveled to Mexico recently, his expectation that he would \u201csee something anti-American\u201d never materialized. \u201cWhat I learned was that people make a distinction between the American people and the American government.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-7\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The fear that people in other countries will equate them with their politicians\u2019 actions is a peculiarly American anxiety, one that also surfaced during the Gulf War, said Mr. Hewitt of Rick Steves\u2019 Europe. \u201cIf you look at history, most European countries have had experience with a ruler who, especially in retrospect, they\u2019re not particularly proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Bo Albertus, a 57-year-old school principal in Denmark, agrees. He administers a Danish Facebook group, 89,000 strong, that is dedicated to boycotting American products. But American citizens are welcome in his country, Mr. Albertus said. \u201cThe Danish people don\u2019t have a problem with Americans. We have a problem with the American administration.\u201d Even a tourist in a MAGA hat would be treated fine, he added, \u201cBecause in Denmark, we have freedom of speech.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"css-7ad88g e1mu4ftr0\"\/>\n<p class=\"css-798hid etfikam0\"><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Follow New York Times Travel <\/em><\/strong><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">on <\/em><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nytimestravel\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Instagram<\/em><\/a><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\"> and <\/em><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/newsletters\/traveldispatch\" title=\"\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">sign up for our Travel Dispatch newsletter<\/em><\/a><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\"> to get expert tips on traveling smarter and inspiration for your next vacation.
