DIMENSIONS OF TOURISM
ATTRACTIONS:
Are the primary motivation for
traveling. Attractions
usually focus on natural
resources, culture,
ethnicity or entertainment.
FACILITIES:
When tourists arrive at
attractions they require facilities to
provide services.
TRANSPORTATION
This is the critical
component to tourism, the ability to get
from Point A to Point B and
back, or to Point C, D, E. Tourism developments are dependent on the ease of
access and types of
transportation available.
The community's attitude which
permeates every tourism location that makes the
tourist feel welcome and safe. It is the result of the interaction between the
tourist and the local population.
HOSPITALITY
ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR TOURISM
TIME: As the hours for leisure increase so does
the opportunity for travel.
MONEY: The majority of travel requires
discretionary income. Discretionary income is money left over after all
monetary obligations have been paid.
MOBILITY:Is the access to transportation and the hours required to get to
their destination.MOTIVATION: Is the reason people travel.
MASS TOURISM
Mass tourism could only have developed with the
improvements in technology, allowing the
transport large numbers of people in a short space of time to places of leisure interest, so that greater numbers of people could
begin to enjoy the benefits of leisure time.
ADJECTIVAL TOURISM
Adjectival tourism refers to the numerous niche or specialty travel
forms of tourism that have emerged over the years, each
with its own adjective. Examples of the more common niche tourism markets include:
• Agritourism.• Cultural tourism.• Ecotourism.• Extreme tourism.• Religious tourism.• Space tourism.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
There is now a demand for a better quality products, which has
resulted in a fragmenting of the mass market for
beach vacations; people want more specialized
versions, quieter resorts, family-oriented holidays or niche market-targeted
destination hotels.THE TERMS TOURISM AND TRAVEL
ARE SOMETIMES USED INTERCHANGEABLY.
