Mark Schilling of The Japan Times gave Tourism three out of five stars, calling it a "slight-but-likable road movie".[2] Film Pulse's Adam Patterson called the film "a pleasantly lowkey riff on alienation and materialism within a globalizing society shot in pseudo-documentary style, replete with quirky dance sequences, Snapchat filters, ghosts and a mysterious child narrator."[4]
