TOURIST
Tourists tend to stay in their comfort zones a bit; they may speak only
English instead of trying to learn phrases in the local language; stick to
major cities instead of venturing to smaller towns or off-the-beaten-path
locales; and stay in areas where the amenities are similar to what they
have at home.

EXCURSIONIST
Temporary visitors staying less than 24 hours in the
destination visited and not making an overnight stay,
including cruise travelers but excluding travelers in transits

TRAVELLER
Generally speaking, someone who considers himself a traveler will
try to immerse himself in the local culture rather than standing out.
If you're a traveler, you may try to explore the less-traveled areas
and explore locations where tourism doesn't drive the economy.
You'll interact with locals. Your goals for a trip will be to learn and
experience new things, rather than to take a relaxing break from
everyday life. A traveler may consider a trip a journey rather than a
vacation.

Five Characteristics of
Tourism
according to Burkhart and Medlik
P R I N C IP L E S O F T O U R I S M I BY A P P L E JA N E C . DA L E S 9
Because of its complexity,
tourism is a combination of
phenomena and relationships;
P R I N C IP L E S O F T O U R I S M I BY A P P L E JA N E C . DA L E S 10
It has two essential elements: the
dynamic element the journey
and the static element the stay
P R I N C IP L E S O F T O U R I S M I BY A P P L E JA N E C . DA L E S 11
The journey and stay are to and from the
destinations outside the place of residence
and work.
P R I N C IP L E S O F T O U R I S M I BY A P P L E JA N E C . DA L E S 12
The movement to destinations is temporary
and short term with the intention to return
within a few days, weeks or months
P R I N C IP L E S O F T O U R I S M I BY A P P L E JA N E C . DA L E S 13
Destinations are visited for the
purposes not connected with
paid work, that is, not to be
employed and not for business
or vocational reasons
