Choices | tourist | touristic |
Explanation | Touristic and touristy are used, especially in informal styles, to describe a place that is unpleasantly full of things for tourists to see and do: 'He refuses to go there any more - it's become too touristy.' When you simply mean 'visited or preferred by tourists', use tourist + noun: 'London is full of tourist attractions.' 'During the tourist season the hotels are packed.' |
