TOURISM PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
Planning tourism at all levels is essential for achieving successful tourism destinations.

Thus, this course provides the student with a solid foundation on the different stages of planning in destinations, a principle that is widely accepted in countries that rely on tourism for its development.
