Development and validation of the Nature Experiences Questionnaire
Nature connection is a common construct in research examining relationships between the natural environment and human well‐being. The multidimensionality of the concept is often described but rarely reflected in existing unidimensional measures, which can also be limited by poor psychometric characteristics. This research aimed to develop and validate a new brief (9‐item) multidimensional self‐report measure: The Nature Experiences Questionnaire …

Turismo e gestão da visitação em áreas protegidas
As áreas protegidas são um componente essencial de qualquer estratégia de conservação global. O turismo oferece uma maneira crucial e única de promover a conexão dos visitantes com os valores das áreas protegidas, tornando-se uma força potencialmente positiva para a conservação. Os benefícios econômicos do turismo em áreas protegidas - que dependem de belas áreas naturais, vida selvagem e natureza saudáveis e culturas autênticas - também podem se…
Tourism and visitor management in protected areas
Protected areas are a key component of any global conservation strategy. Tourism provides a crucial and unique way of fostering visitors’ connection with protected area values, making it a potentially positive force for conservation. Protected area tourism’s economic benefits—which depend on beautiful natural areas, healthy wildlife and nature, and authentic cultures—can also be a powerful argument for conservation. Tourism in protected areas is …
Cultural differentiation in product choice by outdoor tourists
We compare geographic origins, demographics, motivations, information sources and satisfaction factors for tourists taking high-volume bus-based sightseeing tours and low-volume active hiking tours, respectively, at Jiuzhaigou Nature Reserve, Sichuan, China. Interests, behaviour and product purchases differ between domestic Chinese and international inbound tourists. The two groups also differ in motivations, information sources and factors affec…
Tourism and CSR
Corporate social and environmental responsibilities (CSR) are a significant concern throughout the tourism industry, but only sometimes under that name. Some mainstream hotel chains do refer specifically to CSR. Some tourism companies operate social benefit programmes and foundations, but without calling them CSR. There are community tourism enterprises where social benefit is the main aim of the business. In highly impoverished areas, tourism is…

Tourism megatrends
Tourism is affected by social, political, economic, technological and environmental changes at all scales. Population growth, redistribution of wealth, geopolitical changes and conflicts, rising fuel costs, climate change and its consequences, new technologies and work patterns, and all forms of social fashion influence who wants to travel where, for how long, to do what, and at what prices. Here, we examine six large-scale exogenous trends for t…

Wildlife Watching for Fitness Fanatics
This paper identifies three trends in outdoor tourism in Africa. The first is the gradual increase in luxury and service quality. The second is the addition of new wilderness activities and experiences. The third is the addition of activities that are unrelated to wildlife watching (e.g., fitness programmes) and allow guests on holiday to continue aspects of their lifestyle at home
Adventure Tourism as a Research Tool in Non-Tourism Disciplines
Tourism research can gain broader academic recognition if findings from tourism research become relevant to, and cited within, other academic disciplines. Adventure tourism can provide opportunities for ground breaking research on wide-ranging issues such as: motivations for human mobility; individual economic valuation of high-rarity, low-probability experiences; volunteer assumption of physical personal risk, and its legal consequences; positiv…

Tiger Tourism
This opinion piece deals with controversies over tiger conservation and tiger tourism in India. Two key lessons concerning conservation and visitor management at Madhya Pradesh tiger reserves, which are relevant to wildlife tourism worldwide, are highlighted. The first is about tourist behaviour, and the second is about the pivotal role of local village communities
Is Concept of Sustainability Utopian
ContextSustainable Tourism as a paradigm of development originated from the convergence of several streams of thought nearly three decades ago. It has tended to follow a ‘smaller is better’ theme but there are significant questions about the saliency of this theme in a 21st world characterized by change, contentiousness, conflict and uncertainty. Sustainable tourism is often linked with ecotourism and a dependency on natural environments as a pri…

Interpretation Reduces Ecological Impacts of Visitors to World Heritage Site
Minimal-impact interpretation is widely used to reduce the ecological impacts of visitors to protected areas. We tested whether verbal appeals and/or role-model demonstrations of minimal-impact behavior by a trained guide reduced noise, litter, and trampling impacts on hiking trails in a subtropical rainforest. Interpretation did reduce impacts significantly. Different interpretive techniques were more effective for different impacts. The experim…

Tourism and Biodiversity in North and South
Biodiversity in Southern nations is a significant attraction for Northern tourism: reefs and rainforests, whales and wildflowers, big game and biological rarities. It is therefore in the interests of international tourism to help conserve international biodiversity. The role of tourism in biodiversity conservation is especially significant in Southern nations because many Southern nations have particularly rich biodiversity but weak legal land-us…

Climate Change
The increasing attention given to the tourism sector within international negotiations on climate change is documented by Hall (2008); and the industry’s potential role in mitigation is explored by Becken in her probe on Climate Change. Here, therefore, I shall outline the ways in which tourist destinations of various types are likely to be affected by climate change, the ways in which they may respond, and the research they will need to inform t…

Strategic environmental assessment of policies and plans
Governments can, and commonly do, adopt policies whose environmental implications completely overshadow the impacts of individual development projects as assessed by project-scale environmental impact assessment. Environmental assessment (EA) of government policies is therefore as important to sustainable development as EA of projects. One way to achieve routine policy EA is through a formal legal framework which covers: definition of a policy; s…
Tourism in the Most Fragile Environments
Fragility implies that small impacts cause serious damage. In practice, the most fragile environments are wilderness areas with the least previous disturbance. Tourism is growing globally, wilderness is shrinking, and more tourism is occurring in wilderness areas. Tourism can help conserve wilderness if it displaces more damaging land uses such as logging, but this is rare. Commonly, tourism benefits from wilderness conservation without contribut…

Minimal-impact Guidelines For Mountain Ecotours
Many mountains have intensive tourism and recreation concentrated in small areas of high conservation value. Minimal-impact guidelines are one management tool, intended to reduce per capita impacts of commercial tour groups and the general public. Mountain ecotours include activities such as hiking and camping, skiing and snowboarding, climbing and abseiling, and rafting and kayaking. Some mountain tours also involve mountain bikes, pack or ridin…

Case studies in ecotourism
As a counterpart to the growing volume of more theoretical literature in ecotourism, this volume presents a global compilation and analysis of over 170 real-life case studies in ecotourism, selected after an extensive screening process. It includes ecotours on land and sea, ecolodges and resorts, private reserves and public parks. The case studies range from the world’s best models to test cases, small and large, unique to representative. Data ha…

The Effects of World Heritage Listing on Tourism to Australian National Parks
A time series of historical visitor data was used to test whether World Heritage Area (WHA) listing affected the total number or origins of visitors to Australian national parks. Only six of Australia's 14 WHAs have sufficient data to attempt such tests, and these data have significant shortcomings. Whilst visitor numbers at Australian WHA's are commonly up to an order of magnitude higher than at comparable control sites, this cannot necessarily …
