β¦ Synopsis
The trend in tourism development has been to use comprehensive, flexible, community driven and systematic planning approaches. These approaches seek to sustain tourism as an agent for socio-cultural and economic development. Contemporary planning approaches were developed by taking into account the socio-economic, political and human resources conditions in developed rather than in developing countries. Therefore, these planning approaches may not be transferable to and implementable in developing countries without considerable adaptations.
