tourism and hospitality

tourism and hospitality


Choose a destination. This should be as specific as possible in terms of location and geographic scale, and it should not be larger than a city, region or a small island nation (for example: Disneyland Paris; Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya; Bangkok, Thailand; Cozumel Island, Mexico; the Maldives; or Bhutan). Describe the economic, socio-cultural and environmental impacts of tourism there and assess the challenges these impacts pose to sustainability. Discuss whether sustainability is possible for the destination and where focus should be placed in order to balance these impacts with the benefits of tourism.
You should consider:

– The causes, nature and severity of the impact in your chosen destination
– The role of carrying capacity and soft/hard measures of visitor management
– The (unequal) balance of environmental, economic and socio-cultural impacts
