Since the post World War Two boom in private automobile ownership,
Drive Tourism has transformed the tourism landscape by facilitating
dispersal and the growth of attractions and tourism related
infrastructure beyond the zones that had previously emerged around
seaports and railway terminals. The automobile has made regional
dispersal possible and created opportunities for many small rural
communities to supplement rural economies with a tourism economy.
Drive Tourism is a popular form of tourism activity that has
significantly contributed to the development of Tourism in many
nations, but has received relatively little attention in the
literature. This book is the first attempt to provide a global
comprehensive review and scholarly investigation into this popular
and growing form of tourism. It draws on a vast range of
geographical locations to critically explore the impacts of drive
tourism in developed and underdeveloped regions. It evaluates
tourism authorities' response to the Drive Tourism Experience, and
offers operational insights into the management of the drive
experience as well as providing original empirical research and
insights into the field that will contribute to future
investigation. In doing so it explores the many forms of drive
tourism from caravanning to fly drive touring.
