Buna karşın, otel-pansiyon işletmeciliğinin arttığı, hediyelik eşya satan mağazalarının turizme yönelik geliştiği konusunda halk görüş birliği içindedir. Bergama'da halk ile turistin çok az ya da hiç karşılaşmaması halkın turist ve turizm hakkındaki görüşlerinin netleşmesini engellemektedir. Bergama yıllardır turizm ile içice olmasına rağmen, turist ile ilişkiler halen turizmin başlangıç aşamasındaki ilişkileri hatırlatmaktadır. Turistle yeterli iletişim kuramayan ve turizmden yeterli kazancı elde edemeyen yerli halk, zaman zaman turiste olumsuz gözle bakabilmektedir. Özellikle yaşlılar ve öğrenim düzeyi düşük olanlarda bu yöndeki görüş daha belirginleşmektedir. Kırsal turizm, yayla turizmi, gençlik turizmi, kamp-karavan turizmi ve termal turizm gibi turizm türleri için potansiyeli yüksek olan Bergama'da sadece kültür turizminin bir yönü (günübirlik ziyaret) gerçekleşmekte, o nedenle turizmin etkilerinin ortaya çıkması zaman almaktadır. Bu etkilerin belirlenmesi için belirli zaman aralıklarında araştırmaların tekrarlanması gerekmektedir. 318
