Abstract

Today, tourism is an industry in its own right, having long surpassed many other industries in monetary terms. It involves both the hospitality industry and the sectors that support it. In some countries, tourism is the primary source of currency and budgeting. It is an important source of income that comes from both domestic and international tourists, vacationers, and businesspeople. The income is multifaceted, as it comes not only from tourists per se, but also from the production of goods and equipment for tourism, from training human resources for this industry, etc. At the same time, tourism-generated income is often ‘lost’ with other industries: transport, trade, catering, construction, agriculture, service sector, entertainment, banking, advertising, healthcare, education, culture, etc. Beside that, another major hindrance of evaluating tourism as an economic contributor is that tourist traffic cannot be determined by conventional statistical methods. Moreover, identifying and isolating such traffic is difficult, as travel purposes are many. For the present study, the research team has developed criteria to identify tourist traffic and to find ‘hidden’ fluxes for further analysis as part of evaluating tourism as a contributor to the regional economy.
