Not everywhere, but take the Cinque terre (five lands) in Italy, they are 5 tiny villages (between 500 and 2000 inhabitants each) built by hand over the centuries between cliff and sea. No car can get there (or they couldn't until very recently), stunningly beautiful landscapes made even better by the intimacy of the place, until the 50 000 tourists a day arrive, that is.
When my family would go on trips, they loved going to all of the tourist traps. Gatlinburg was the worst.
To me, a good vacation would be going to a National Park and camping in the woods, and then maybe driving through the mountains to find cool places to stop off and hike through. I'm really into photography, and it's hard to take good shots when every person is trying to take the same picture from the same spot at the same time. I always end up going to less populated areas and grabbing a few pictures. That way, I'm getting a less popular shot, there's less people in my way, and I don't have to worry about blocking any paths.
