     THE COMPONENTS OF TOURISM

 

     Choose a heading for each paragraph of the text by putting a paragraph number in the appropriate box.

 

     A major components of tourism is location. The location of tourism is known as the tourist destination and its importance depends upon three major factors:

     - attraction

     - accessibility

     - amenities

     The attractions of a destination can be either natural, such as the climate, or human-made, such as historical buildings. Attractions can also be events such as festivals, exhibitions and of congresses. Accessibility related to the distance from centers of population, or to tourist generating regions, and to transport facilities. Time taken to get to tourist destinations is also important in relation to accessibility.

     Amenities   at   the   location   include entertainment, accommodation and catering facilities, as well as local transport services. At the destination there is usually some tourist organisation which provides the framework within which tourism operates.

     The journey undertaken by tourists and their stay in the destination give rise to tourist services. These include transport for passengers to the location, as well as accommodation, catering and entertainment at the destination.

     In the past 25 years the growth of overseas tourism has increased the importance of two service providers, the travel agent and the tour operator. The travel agent acts as an intermediary between the tourist and the accommodation and transport providers. The main rote of the travel agent is to sell holidays, particularly package holidays or inclusive tours and travel tickets. The tour operator puts together a package of accommodation, .catering, transport and often entertainment, and sell this package, frequently via a travel to agent. 

     Most countries now have active public sector tourism organisations. These organizations include national and regional tourists boards or offices. At the local level these are often tourist information centres. One of the main functions of public sector tourism is to provide information.

     As tourism has grown in importance at local regional, national and international level, so a number of pressure groups have become involved in tourism issues. Such pressure  groups include Friends of the Earth, Greenpeace, church groups and community organizations.

     PORTRAIT OF A TRAVEL COMPANY

 

     Susie Madron owns her own travel company Susie Madron Cycling for Softies. She arranges holidays for around 3,500 people every year and employs eight people in her Manchester office, but she started in a very small way.

     It began twelve years ago when my daughter had to make a one and a half mile journey to school and I bought a bike with a child's seat in order to take her there. As a result we all became keen on cycling and decided to take a family holiday with our bikes, in France. It was amazingly difficult to arrange. At the time cycling had a very hardly image. It tended to mean sleeping in tents. I wanted to go to the Loire region it proved impossible to hire with panniers or child seats, and it took five days to send your bicycle our by train.

     So we settled for Normandy and had a marvellous time. It was a perfect way to spend a holiday off the beaten track. We could cycle during the day and return to comfortable accommodation and good food in the evening.

     On the return ferry, the Madrons fell into conversation with other holiday-makers who made comments like, 'I wish we could have taken our bikes' or, we would love to travel independently but we don't speak French,' Susi, who does speak French, had an idea.
