Reaction/Conclusion:
Nowadays, people are more aware of destinations and attractions, have money to spend,
and need break from their routine stressful life. They take breaks to refresh and relax or may
travel for some psychological and social needs. Tourism service providers need to understand
what motivates a person to travel. Various purposes have been categorized and these have led to
different forms of tourism. The popular and most basic form of tourism is leisure tourism, under
which family tourism, cultural tourism, religious tourism, sports tourism are included. Business
tourism is also getting momentum. Tourism brings money into a country. Building an airport
gives hundreds of people jobs, because construction workers are needed to perform the
fabrication. Then there are thousands of people who get jobs to run the airport.
Once you and your friends and thousands of other people start flying in to different
country, accommodation like hotels are needed. This means hotel companies come and spend
millions of dollars to pay the government for permits to build, they pay construction workers to
build the hotels, and they give jobs to people who run the hotels. This all happens even before
you travel. Once you're off the plane, you pay the hotels and you spend money to go sightseeing.
This pays the salaries of tour guides, boat captains, cab drivers etc. Also while in the country,
you'll likely be buying meals and going out for drinks or entertainment or buying souvenirs, all
of which give money to the people. So, in essence, in almost any country, tourism is a welcome
boost to the country's economy, but especially in countries where there is a high level of poverty
and a slow job market, tourism lends millions of dollars to people very much in need of income.
