Paying full price to stand where locals pay nothing to leave.
means The industry and activity of traveling to a place for pleasure and visiting its sights.
from Built from 'tour' — from French tour, itself from Latin tornus, 'a turn' (as on a lathe), via Greek tornos. A tour was originally a circuit, a journey that loops back to its start. English bolted on the suffix '-ism' in the early 1800s to name the practice and its devotees, right as organized sightseeing was becoming a leisure-class habit rather than a rare grand adventure.
