ABSTRACT
This chapter throws some theoretical insights on city tourism, urbanism and overtourism. It focuses on impacts and implications of urbanism and overtourism in the city of Hyderabad. The interviews proved particularly useful in gaining rich data on the implications of urbanism and overtourism in Hyderabad. The overall findings show that city tourism is a complex phenomenon that overlaps with urbanism and overtourism in Hyderabad. The impacts of urbanism are also reflected in the consequences of overtourism. Overtourism and urbanism have consequences on people who nurture contrasting and conflicting interests and people are the cause of overtourism and urbanism. If the root of urbanisation stems from technology, then it would be plausible to suggest that overtourism and urbanism are both connected.
