Given that tourism is a combination of activities, services, and industries that provide a travel experience, it is critical to identify and classify its supply components. The quantity and quality of these determine the success of tourism in any area.
There are four main types of tourism supply components.
- Natural resources and environment
- Build Environment
- Operating Sectors:
- Spirit of hospitality and cultural resources
Economists define demand as a schedule of the amount of any product or service that people are willing and able to buy at each specific price in a set of possible prices during some specified period of time. More precisely, the desire to travel to a certain place is an of the individual's propensity to travel and the resistance of the connection between the places of origin and the destination.
