DEFINITION OF TOURISM

Hellowowow^^ I’m baack

This time I’d like to share about TOURISM.

Wow.. That’s so interesting, isn’t it??? Yup. Recently there’s a lot of people who have a new hobby as a traveller. But sometimes they still didn’t get what is the real purpose of it.

But we should remember that TOURISM is different from travel ,all travel is not TOURISM.But We’ll discuss for next J

Here are some explanation of TOURISM :

"Tourism is a collection of activities, services and industries which deliver a travel experience comprising transportation, accommodation, eating and drinking establishments, retail shops, entertainment businesses and othe hospitality services provided for individuals or groups traveling away from home"

-Guyer Feuler in 1905.


The sum of the phenomena and relationships arising from the interaction of tourists, business suppliers, host goverments and host communities in the process of attracting and hostin these tourists and other visitors"

-Macintosh and Goeldner


"Tourism comprises the activities of persons traveling to and staying in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes."

-UNWTO Definition of Tourism

                 So.. If I conclude it TOURISM is a collection of activities that have some advantages for many people. How can I say that? Let me explain it for some examples..  firstly for the tourists, because they won’t find any difficulties when they go to their destination. And the second one is for the people who lived in the destination’s places. They could do many thing that can reached a lot of money, like rent their house, sell some food, and so on. Of course TOURISM also make some advantages for the country.

Ok that’s enough for this chance. Thank you for reading.. :)
