Tourism is an economic and social phenomenon that is centered on a
tourist's experience and is dependent on the experiences that are
co-created and provided to tourists. Tourism destination managers
must understand what tourists perceive as engaging, intense, and
memorable in order to remain successful. However, care must also be
given to the residents' perception of local tourism development and
how it impacts their community. This is a fundamental aspect for
tourism development since host communities that support tourism
development tend to be more hospitable with tourists, which
influences their satisfaction and loyalty. Moreover, the
interaction with residents of host communities is a crucial
component of the quality of the tourist experience, contributing to
the long-term success and sustainability of destinations. The
Handbook of Research on Resident and Tourist Perspectives on Travel
Destinationsis a collection of innovative research that examines
travel destinations from the resident and tourist perspectives in
order to better support and inform the tourism development process
and to make the destinations attractive to visitors while at the
same time contributing to resident quality of life and happiness.
While highlighting topics including sustainable development, hotel
management, and customer satisfaction, this book is ideally
designed for government officials, tour developers, travel
agencies, brand managers, advertising agencies, restaurateurs,
public administrators, hotel managers, tourist industry
professionals, academicians, researchers, and students.
