Heritage Tourism Upplaga 1

av Dallen Timothy, Stephen Boyd
Heritage Tourism provides a comprehensive review of the main issues and concepts related to heritage tourism. It considers the area broadly to include culture and nature in both urban and rural contexts, and presents an in-depth discussion of important global issues.

 

The book provides a balanced view of both theoretical issues and applied subjects that managers must deal with on a daily basis. These concepts are illustrated throughout the text via examples and detailed case studies.

With the rapid growth of special interest travel during the past two decades, the demand for heritage tourism experiences has soared, and its economic and socio-cultural importance cannot be overstated.

This strong addition to the successful Themes in Tourism series addresses this mature type of tourism and will prove to be a valuable resource for educators, students and practitioners in the heritage field. Features
