The document summarizes the exploration and conquest of the Alps mountain range in Europe. It describes how the mountains were long considered inaccessible places inhabited by mythical creatures. In the 18th century, they became a destination for the Grand Tour among wealthy European travelers seeking natural wonders. The development of tourism in the 19th century made the mountains more accessible and popular. The 1850s saw the "Golden Age of Mountaineering" where over 30 mountain peaks over 4000m were first ascended, largely by British mountaineers. By the early 20th century, Alpine tourism was well established at major resort towns though remote areas still saw few visitors.

Mod. 8 CS (2): Ski Resorts & Social Media. YouTube Case Study and WorkshopRaul Revuelta
Vail Resorts has abandoned its traditional advertising strategies in favor of a new in-house social media marketing operation. This operation uses social media platforms like YouTube to constantly engage with skiing enthusiasts in real-time. Vail Resorts operates ski resorts across Colorado and California/Nevada and has seen social media accelerate consumers' decision making about visiting resorts.
Sustainable Tourism CS: Saas-Fee. A model in the Swiss AlpsRaul Revuelta
The document discusses sustainability practices in Saas-Fee, Switzerland. It describes how Saas-Fee has established itself as a model for sustainable tourism by being car-free, promoting public transportation, implementing strict environmental regulations on buildings, and partnering with organizations focused on sustainable development and energy efficiency. Key hotels like Ferienart Resort & Spa have also implemented numerous initiatives to reduce their environmental impact and have received recognition for their sustainability efforts.
The document defines key terms related to tourism destinations:
1) A tourism destination is a physical space where visitors spend at least one overnight, including attractions, services, and resources within a day's travel; it has boundaries defining its management and competitiveness.
2) Destinations have natural resources like climate and beaches, cultural resources like historic sites, and recreational facilities like amusement parks.
3) Several studies have found that the most important factors for destinations are friendly local people, comfortable accommodations, and natural scenery.

Προορισμοί σε όλο τον κόσμο σε μεγάλο βαθμό ανταγωνίζονται μεταξύ τους, προκειμένου να διατηρηθεί η ελκυστικότητα και την ανταγωνιστικότητά τους στην παγκόσμια τουριστική βιομηχανία. Για να γίνει αυτό, είναι απαραίτητο για τις αρχές προορισμού να είναι σε θέση να αντιμετωπίσουν τις διαφορετικές ανάγκες των διαφόρων τμημάτων της αγοράς, καθώς και για την εικόνα τους και να διαχειρίζονται τους προορισμούς με τρόπο που προσελκύει τους τουρίστες. Με άλλα λόγια, θα πρέπει να εφαρμόσουν αποτελεσματικά Destination Marketing, ο όρος που αναφέρεται στην προώθηση των τουριστικών προορισμών ως μέσο βελτίωσης της εικόνας και τη δημοτικότητά τους,
Η τουριστική βιομηχανία στην Ελλάδα είναι ένας από τους σημαντικότερους τομείς της οικονομίας που αφορά στη χώρα της αξίας (Ελληνική Στατιστική Αρχή, το 2014). Υπάρχουν πολλές δημόσιες και ιδιωτικές οργανώσεις που εμπλέκονται στην τουριστική βιομηχανία στην Ελλάδα.

The birth of skiing is commonly associated with the Norwegians, with rock carvings dating ski use back to 4000 BC. Skis were used by Norwegian soldiers as early as the Middle Ages. Sondre Norheim in the 19th century is considered the father of modern skiing, developing curved skis and bindings to facilitate new turns. Skiing grew as both a military activity and sport in Norway and other European countries in the late 19th century. The first Olympic Winter Games featuring skiing were held in 1924, and alpine skiing events began at the 1936 Games, cementing skiing's role as a international winter sport. New ski techniques continued to be developed throughout the 20th century.
Mod. 5: Emotions, Experiences, Memories. A story to be told.Raul Revuelta
The document discusses the customer journey in tourism, from initial dreaming about a vacation, to planning, booking, experiencing, and remembering a trip. It outlines the typical steps tourists go through, including searching for inspiration, gathering specific information, comparing options and booking, experiencing destinations and activities, and recalling the experience. It emphasizes that destinations should aim to deliver exceptional experiences and positive memories at each stage to ensure satisfied customers who may return or recommend the area to others.
Environmental Impact of Cruise HolidaysRichard Farr
This document summarizes a life cycle assessment of the environmental impact of cruise holidays. It finds that a one-week cruise holiday has a carbon footprint over four times that of a comparable hotel-based holiday in Barcelona. The largest contributor is fuel usage, as cruise ships are very inefficient modes of transport that emit high amounts of greenhouse gases. While some materials can be reclaimed at the end of a ship's lifespan, the energy required to construct ships and the emissions generated during their operation far outweigh any savings from recycling. The document concludes that cruise passengers are essentially subsidized by others, as they do not pay the true environmental costs of their holiday.
The document outlines the typical 7 stages of the geographic cycle of tourism development: exploration, involvement, development, consolidation, stagnation, rejuvenation, and decline. It begins with a few adventurous tourists discovering an untouched place with no tourist services. Local people then start businesses like accommodations and transportation as tourism grows. Large companies then invest, building hotels and expanding jobs. Tourism comes to dominate the local economy. However, competition from other areas, overcrowding, and loss of original attractions can then cause stagnation and decline, requiring rejuvenation through new attractions to revive the area's popularity.
This document discusses tourism attractions and destination life cycles. It begins by defining tourism attractions and their characteristics. It describes different types of attractions, including natural, man-made, theme parks, heritage sites, and entertainment. Criteria for attractiveness and developing attractions are also covered. The document then introduces Butler's destination life cycle model, which outlines stages from exploration to potential decline or rejuvenation. Maintaining sustainability and preserving attractions at different stages is emphasized.
Ski resorts are increasingly using social media to market themselves and engage with customers. Vail Resorts has led the way by developing EpicMix, a mobile app that allows skiers to track their experiences and share them socially. EpicMix saw nearly 100,000 users in its first season who generated over 35 million social media impressions. Vail Resorts has since expanded EpicMix's photo sharing capabilities. Other resorts also have large Facebook followings and use sites like blogs to curate authentic user-generated content.
This document discusses social carrying capacity as it relates to tourism. Social carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of tourists an area can support without negative social, cultural, or economic impacts on the local community or degradation of the visitor experience. It examines both positive and negative socio-cultural impacts of tourism on communities. Positive impacts include education/training, enhanced quality of life, pride in local culture, and cultural awareness/peace, while negative impacts include commodification of culture, increased crime, loss of cultural identity, displacement of locals, economic tensions, and potential exploitation of workers. The conclusion states that sustainable tourism development aims to enhance community welfare through economic opportunities while preserving cultural heritage and quality of life, rather than relying solely on numerical carrying

The document summarizes key squares in Thessaloniki, Greece that reveal the city's character. Aristotelous Square houses grand structures like the Olympion Cinema and Electra Palace Hotel. Plateia Navarinou features the ruins of Emperor Galerius' palace and is a hangout for chatty anarchists. Subtle signs of Thessaloniki's quirky personality are on full display in the squares, such as old men in fuzzy suits discussing politics and students handing out protest pamphlets. The squares represent the essence of contemporary Greek urban life.
