While a number of tourism researchers have considered the relationship between tourism and crime, the topic has rarely been addressed by criminologists, and most of the evidence available is derived from official statistics. Using data from an exploratory survey of people's experiences and perceptions of crime on holiday, this paper assesses the extent to which holidaymakers are victimised. Compared with BCS data, the findings indicate that tourists are highly likely to experience crime. The reasons for this are considered in terms of the different lifestyles adopted by people on holiday
