Definition of Overtourism

Divertimento Group embraces the working definition from the current Responsible Tourism Partnership website: www.responsibletourismpartnership.com

---

“Overtourism describes destinations where hosts or guests, locals or visitors, feel that there are too many visitors and that the quality of life in the area or the quality of the experience has deteriorated unacceptably. It is the opposite of Responsible Tourism which is about using tourism to make better places to live in and better places to visit. Often both visitors and guests experience the deterioration concurrently.”
