Characteristics of Tourism
1. In tourism, the product is not brought to the
consumer, rather, the consumer has to travel
and go to the product to purchase it. In other
industries, an item manufactured in a factory
is brought to the wholesaler and retailer and
ultimately to the consumer.
5. Tourism is a multi-dimensional
phenomenon. It is dependent on many and
varied activities which are separate but
inter-dependent.
6. The tourist industry is seasonal. During
vacation seasons, millions of tourism travel
which result in increased revenues for
several tourism agencies, but when
vacations are over, these companies
experience a big decline in profits earned.
