Tourism has become one of the most influential industries in the world. Many people consider tourism the most significant business in the world since it causes constant mass migrations, resource exploitation, development processes, and unavoidable effects on local economies, social structures, and natural ecosystems. It's becoming more and more of a phenomenon that needs study. Being Geographer, relevance to and illuminance of the tourism field is explored in this book. The book examines the forces that have pushed domestic and international tourism forward and shine a light on the ever-changing trends in this industry. Planning for tourism may aid in the development management and create sustainable types of tourism. Investigation of economic, environmental, and sociocultural influences that tourism may impose upon regions have been discussed in this book. The book provides a succinct survey of existing tourism and demonstrates how 21st-century tourism is being shaped by new patterns in the production and use of tourist sites by using case studies from around the globe.
This book is an outcome of the peer review process. All chapters are peer-reviewed by a panel of experts. I hope this book will prove a milestone for all readers, especially graduates and post-graduates at universities or students in further education who wish to specialize in travel and tourism.
