Types of tourists

Activity

Once you have read through the various types of tourists you need to think carefully about the types and groups of tourists for which your chosen destination could add to its appeal.  This will give you some ideas about what the destination should do to increase its appeal to different types of tourists.

See if you can identify 6 or 7 tourist types (by age, activity etc.) using the lists above. 

You could use the information from the previous section to help you if necessary. Can you identify 6 or more types of tourist to which your chosen destination should increase its appeal. 

Here is an example…

Borrowwick-on-Sea should increase its appeal to families with very young children who stay in B&B accommodation. These families usually travel in their own cars. There are very few suitable attractions.

Using this example, can you think of 6 or 7 types of tourist for which your chosen destination should increase its appeal.
