The document discusses destination planning and life cycles according to Plog's model, which proposes that destinations appeal to different groups - innovators, mass market, and late adopters - as they develop and become more commercialized over time. It also outlines consequences of lack of planning such as damage to the environment and culture, loss of local identity, and failure to capitalize on new opportunities. Additionally, barriers to planning like costs and industry diversity are mentioned.
Tourism has existed since early humans traveled for survival. Early forms included nomadic travel and trade between civilizations like the Sumerians, Greeks, and Romans who improved infrastructure. Modern tourism developed after innovations like railways and steam power, and increased after World War II with improved air travel. Tourism involves travel for leisure or business, and can be domestic or international. Effective tourism planning considers tourists' needs, coordinates infrastructure development, and mitigates environmental and cultural impacts to benefit local communities and visitors. Barriers to planning include resistance from businesses and difficulties addressing impacts in developing areas.
The document discusses tourism development at multiple scales, from individual sites and destinations to regional scales involving many jurisdictions over long time periods. It addresses factors like transportation, attractions, utilities, and links between sites that are important for planning tourism destinations and regions.

The document discusses the role and potential of tourism in South Africa's economy. It notes that in the 1990s, tourism contributed a small percentage to GDP but was one of the top foreign exchange earners. There was potential to triple tourism's contribution to the national income and double foreign exchange earnings by 2000 if constraints were addressed. These constraints included underfunding, limited community involvement, lack of infrastructure especially in rural areas, and crime. The document lays out a vision for South Africa to become a global leader in responsible tourism through community participation, environmental protection, and addressing barriers like seasonality, skills shortages, and lack of geographic spread.

11. Mass Tourism principles
• Tourism is an extraction business oriented industry
• It is not sustainable
• It is often the only source of a regions incoming capital
besides government subsidies
• It is based on growth
• It is cost sensitive and profit oriented
• It typically is its own reason for demise
15. Ecotourism or Sustainable Tourism
Ecotourism is a subform of sustainable tourism, used to describe zero
impact travel to relatively undisturbed natural areas to understand the
culture and natural history of the environment, taking care not to alter
the integrity of the ecosystem, while producing economic opportunities
that make the conservation of natural resources beneficial to local
people.

16. Is there an Ecotourism market?
•
•
•
•
•
How many travelled by car, plane or train to this congress?
How many did a Co2 offset?
Who based his vacation decision on Ecotourism aspects?
Meeting customer expectations is almost impossible
Ecotourism is currently more a marketing hype than a real
product
17. Is Sustainable Tourism achievable?
Tourism will never be completely sustainable, but it can work
towards becoming more sustainable. The need for
sustainable/responsible planning and management is
imperative for the tourism industry to survive as a whole. It
offers broader opportunities for rural areas than Ecotourism.
24. What can a rural area offer?
•
•
•
•
•
•
Unique landscapes
Unique experiences
Unique flora and fauna
Unique wildlife
Unique destinations
Unique cultural and social traditions
29. Stakeholders
Involve ALL stakeholders of all genders, ages, social status, political affiliation,
marital status, cultural heritage and nationality living in the region
DO NOT JUST FOCUS on local tourism professionals
49. The European Wilderness Society
works to identify, designates,
manages and promotes Europe ’s

Rewilding is fine and we welcome it, but only relevant to wilderness protection if it eventually leads to creating more wilderness
Another opportunity is people moving into cities
