Abstract

Since XIXth century, with trail widespread, traveling has become more available, however a breakthrough ensued in XXth century, when labor unions had fought their chance to paid leave. It has become a drive shaft of tourism, which by the end of the century had proclaimed as a number 1 industry in the world. Tourism is an economic and spiritual hope for the world. Profits from it reach more than 500 billion dollars per year, not counting the income from flight tickets. In many countries tourism is the most important economy department - provides workplaces, stimulates infrastructure development. Lately, more often we can see a tendency of tourism individualization. Forecasts say, that they are about to change. A more specialized individual tourism is showing up next to the mass tourism, heading to cultural and natural penetration. Nowadays, a tourist is more experienced, often not discovering the world for the first time, but acknowledging his own knowledge. Mass tourism is still going to exist next to the individual tourism, with all of its economical advantages as well as with its destroying force. If there is no proper limitation and protection, areas on which mass tourism is developing would annihilate. Since decades, year by year, the number of tourists and income from tourism has been growing. A breakdown occurred in 2001 when economy of Germany, Japan and USA weakened and after 11th September. After this tragedy incomes decreased dramatically all over the world by 11%(worst in the Near East-30%). Many countries have taken actions in order to secure tourists, since it is the most important thing today. Tourists will not visit a place where there is no security.(original abstract)
