Resumo
As taxas do aumento do número de turistas são enormes em toda a Europa. O fluxo de
visitantes em muitas cidades europeias é alarmante. Como resultado, as cidades estão a dar os
seus primeiros passos contra este fenómeno: overtourism.
Existem diversos fatores que residentes e turistas acham ser influenciados por este
mediático obstáculo. Como por exemplo especulação imobiliária, a dificuldade de usufruir de
um determinado espaço ou mesmo a arduidade em encontrar pessoas locais e conseguir
absorver as suas tradições.
Foram realizadas entrevistas a habitantes da área metropolitana de Lisboa, que também
são turistas, para se conseguir apurar quais os aspetos que estes acham ser os mais influenciados
pelo impacto do overtourism e quais as atividades que preferiam fazer quando se encontram
num ambiente com excesso de pessoas.
Dos inquiridos, vários foram os que disseram que não mudam o tipo de atividade que
fazem quando estão num ambiente de overtourism e que nem sequer pensam nisso quando estão
a decidir a próxima viagem. No entanto, a maioria prefere sítios mais recatados para conseguir
usufruir do local.
