Solved

Explanation

Reveal the reasoning
  1. Begin with the cross-category links that lock two items together. Here, Clue 1, Clue 2 connect Landmark, Souvenir.
  2. Clue 1 links Museum (Landmark) with Mug (Souvenir), so those two items must belong to the same tourist.
  3. Clue 2 links Market (Landmark) with Scarf (Souvenir), so those two items must belong to the same tourist.
  4. Next, apply the elimination clues to shrink rows and columns before committing to any checks.
  5. Clue 5 rules out Magnet and Scarf (Souvenir) for Aria, which forces the remaining options.
  6. Clue 6 rules out Bridge and Museum (Landmark) for Blake, which forces the remaining options.
  7. Clue 7 rules out Tower and Museum (Landmark) for Cora, which forces the remaining options.
  8. Whenever a tourist has only one remaining option in a category, mark it as a check and cross out the rest (one-to-one). Keep propagating until every tourist has exactly one match in each category.
