TOURISM

Tourism is one of the world’s biggest industries, and the World Tourism Organization (WTO) expects it to continue growing by four percent a year. Germany, the USA and China are the countries that spend the most on outbound tourism all over the world. Outbound tourism is a kind of tourism when people arrive in different countries from their own. Other top spenders are the UK, France and Canada.

Most tourism in the world is domestic tourism. It is a kind of tourism when people travel in their own country. It represents about 80 percent of all tourism trips today.

People travel for many reasons. Some inbound tourists travel for leisure, recreation and holidays. Other people are visiting friends and relatives (VFR) or travelling for health and religious reasons. Other people travel for business and professional purposes.

According to the World Tourism Organization (WTO), the top region for international tourism is Europe, with 52 percent, more than half the world’s total tourism market. France is the world’s top destination, with nearly 77 million international arrivals last year. The USA was second, with nearly 60 million, China was in third position with 56 million, and Spain was fourth with 53 million foreign visitors. Another important statistic is the money inbound visitors spend in a country. This is known as ‘tourism receipts’. International tourism receipts were 919 billion US dollars last year- that’s 693 billion euros. The USA has the top tourism receipts in the world, with 104 billion US dollars. Spain was in second position and France was third. The WTO also collects information on tourist’s spending habits. Tourists from Germany are the top spenders on international tourism. They spent 78 billion euros last year. Things are changing fast in the tourism industry and the WTO expects China to be the top international destination within the next five years. China is also showing the fastest growth in spending on international tourism in recent years.
