What ways are effective for capturing tourist dollars?

I agree that GST is a regressive tax that overly targets the lower income earners. But it does serve a purpose

You can charge more for visas, you can have airport taxes, you can levy a fee on museums, huts, trails and such, you can place taxes on tour operators and guides etc.

There are lots of options.
