The travel industry is booming with millions more people holidaying abroad each year. In this first episode of The Tourist Trap, seasoned ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ TV travelogue presenter Rajan Datar focuses on the relentless rise of global tourism and the impact that’s having on local communities. He hears how the Indian travel market is gearing up to conquer the world. He visits the Austrian village that regularly gets swamped by ten times as many tourists as there are residents. He is in Venice as it begins charging visitors to enter the city on certain days. He’ll also be hearing how people have come to the end of their tether in Tenerife. Are we now in danger of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs – ruining the very natural beauty and attractions that we seek out so keenly? Produced by Bob Howard.
