Special Tourism

Special Tourism
 
          A category of tourism involves people with particular interests such as painting, cooking or bird-watching. The tourists who fall under this category are mainly people with very particular needs on visiting a place. For example, you can have a tourist in a particular national park just for bird watching.
1.      Tourism Region is a geographical region that has been designated by a governmental organization or tourism bureau as having common cultural or environmental characteristics. These regions are often named after historical or current administrative and geographical regions. Others have names created specifically for tourism purposes.


2.    Cultural Tourism is the subset of tourism concerned with a country or region's culture, specifically the lifestyle of the people in those geographical areas, the history of those people, their art, architecture, religion(s), and other elements that helped shape their way of life. Cultural tourism includes tourism in urban areas, particularly historic or large cities and their cultural facilities such as museums and theatres. It can also include tourism in rural areas showcasing the traditions of indigenous cultural communities (i.e. festivals, rituals), and their values and lifestyle.



3.    Heritage tourism a branch of tourism oriented towards the cultural heritage of the location where tourism is occurring. The National Trust for Historic Preservation in the United States defines heritage tourism as “travelling to experience the places and activities that authentically represent the stories and people of the past," and cultural heritage tourism is defined as “travelling to experience the places and activities that authentically represent the stories and people of the past and present."
 
\ 4.  Rural tourism focuses on actively participating in a rural lifestyle. It can be a variant of ecotourism. Many rural villages can facilitate tourism because many villagers are hospitable and eager to welcome (and sometime even host) visitors.
 












5.    Cycle tourism was not a significant consideration for tourism associations, accommodation vendors, mass transit, or others engaged in the tourism industry. Vendors assumed that tourists with bikes were not a wealthy target group. Transit agencies only saw carrying bikes as a hassle without any benefit to them. These misconception prevented cycle tourism from growing.
 



6.    Educational Tourism for many in the world of education, the months of May and June represent the end of the academic year and the start of tourism’s high season. Thus, from the perspective of the tourism industry as the academic year wanes, new tourism educational opportunities begin to wax. Educational tourism is one of the fastest growing areas of the travel and tourism and one that is too often overlooked by tourism professionals and marketers.

     7.    Travelling Tourism Over 200 million people work in the travel and tourism industry worldwide. Our travel and tourism training is designed to give you the skills and knowledge to maximize career opportunities in this rapidly expanding industry.



8.       Environmental Tourism the quality of the environment, both natural and man-made, is essential to tourism. However, tourism's relationship with the environment is complex. It involves many activities that can have adverse environmental effects. Many of these impacts are linked with the construction of general infrastructure such as roads and airports, and of tourism facilities, including resorts, hotels, restaurants, shops, golf courses and marinas. The negative impacts of tourism development can gradually destroy the environmental resources on which it depends.
