The Adventure Tourist: Being, Knowing, Becoming brings together two
broad areas of academic inquiry - adventure tourism and hospitality
studies. In situating the adventure tourist within social,
cultural, political, and geographic contexts, The Adventure Tourist
considers the adventure experience and offers new ways in which
this can be more deeply analysed and interpreted. Focused on the
personal tourist experience and what it means to seek adventure
through tourism in an uncertain and troubled world, Farkic and
Gebbels question the dynamic interactions in modern commodified
adventure tourism practice. By questioning hospitality services
through philosophical and sociological concepts, focus is
maintained on the agency of the individual, bringing into
discussion the senses, emotions, and desires of those who consume
outdoor spaces globally. The Adventure Tourist responds to the
requirements of the outdoor adventure industry today and considers
how engagement with theory can inform, challenge and support
real-world scenarios in this sector.
