A short history of international tourism

Foreign lands have probably always interested people, but very few of them traveled for fun until recently, because it was difficult to go by land or sea to another country. The people who took the challenging journeys were mainly explorers trying to find out about new places, for example, where a river started or ended, or what was on the other side of an ocean. Others were people who wanted to buy or sell things in a foreign country.

In Europe, tourism for ordinary people started to become popular once people could travel by train in the 19th century. Slowly, countries in other parts of the world got railways, and more and more people traveled in their own country or even by steamship, to other countries, for fun. Then the plane was invented at the start of the 20th century and, 50 years later, cheap air travel and car hire made this a worldwide leisure activity.

People who went abroad at this time had to learn some of the language of any country which they visited. Small phrase books for pockets or bags were sold for many languages, and tourists carried them so they could check quickly how to say, for example, “Where is the train station?” or “How much does it cost for a double room for a week?”

Tourists still need to learn some words in a foreign language if they want to visit most countries. But nowadays, there are very few places where they need to learn the language of that country or use phone apps and maps there, because anyone working in the tourist industry anywhere in the world probably speaks English.
