DESCRIPTION
Analysis of Tourism Destinations has the main objectives to provide students with an insight to the dynamics created among tourism destinations (understood as geographical spaces where the tourism experience takes place and the tourism attraction is consumed) and to teach students the main tourism destinations worldwide.
Besides carrying out a descriptive analysis of the main geographical features, on the one hand the subject aims at presenting the major tourist areas through the world's regionalization in an orderly manner and, on the other hand, to pinpoint the environmental, demographic, socio-economic and geopolitical aspects that characterize each of the different regions of the world, in order to identify how they affect the tourism activity.
With this subject, students will approach the main tourism destinations worldwide so that they can analyze them and understand their global and regional importance. For this reason, it is essential to describe their distribution at global scale according to the main modalities (urban, coastal, nature, ethnic tourism?) and how they deal with tour operator and travel agent offers. In conclusion, students will have to be able to understand, from the tourism point of view, the different world areas and their idiosyncrasies.
