Venise, Barcelone, Amsterdam : certaines villes reçoivent tant de touristes que la vie des habitants devient difficile. Les logements sont loués aux visiteurs, ce qui fait monter les loyers ; les rues sont saturées. Plusieurs villes réagissent : Venise fait payer un droit d'entrée aux visiteurs à la journée certains jours depuis 2024, Amsterdam limite les nouveaux hôtels, Barcelone a vu des manifestations d'habitants. Le débat : comment voyager sans abîmer les lieux qu'on aime ?

Mise en situation : le débat

Teacher : What is overtourism?
Qu'est-ce que le surtourisme ?
Lea : It's when a place receives too many tourists. As a result, local residents can't live normally anymore.
C'est quand un lieu reçoit trop de touristes. En conséquence, les habitants ne peuvent plus vivre normalement.
Adam : Many flats are rented to tourists, which leads to higher rents. Young people can't afford to live in the city centre.
Beaucoup d'appartements sont loués aux touristes, ce qui entraîne une hausse des loyers. Les jeunes n'ont plus les moyens de vivre dans le centre.
Teacher : What are cities doing about it?
Que font les villes ?
Lea : Venice now charges day-trippers an entry fee on some days. This means that tourists pay for the services they use.
Venise fait désormais payer un droit d'entrée aux visiteurs d'un jour certains jours. Cela signifie que les touristes paient les services qu'ils utilisent.
Adam : But tourism also creates jobs. I think sustainable tourism is the answer: travel off-season, stay longer, respect local people.
Mais le tourisme crée aussi des emplois. Je pense que le tourisme durable est la solution : voyager hors saison, rester plus longtemps, respecter les habitants.
