WHAT IS TOURISM?Tourism arises from the movement of people to, and their stay in, various destinations.

There are two elements in all tourism; the journey to the destination and the stay including activities at the destination.

The journey and the stay take place outside the normal place of residence and work, so that tourism gives rise to activities which are distinct from those of the resident and working populations of the places through which tourists travel and in which they stay.

The movement to destinations is of temporary, short-term character, with intention to return within a few days, weeks or months.

Destinations are visited for purposes other than taking up permanent residence or employment remunerated from within the places visited.
