Usage Note
Touriste is one of those French nouns that takes the same form for both genders — un touriste (male) or une touriste (female). The adjective touristique ('touristy', 'tourist-oriented') often carries a slightly dismissive tone in French. Paris's office du tourisme is one of the busiest tourist information offices in the world.
