Listen "Wish You Weren’t Here - The Tourism Trap"
Episode Synopsis
We all need a holiday right now, somewhere drier and hotter than Britain. But do our favourite resorts want US? Protesters fire water pistols at visitors in Barcelona, thousands turn out in Tenerife to tell holidaymakers to go home. Tourists, they say, force up prices, clog the streets and destroy the very thing they have come for - beauty, tranquility and local culture. Are we all too addicted to travelling too often and in the wrong way? Phil and Roger ask Marina Novelli, Professor of Marketing and Director of the Sustainable Travel and Tourism Advanced Research Centre at Nottingham University/ Hosted on Acast.
