Abstract

Tourism as a field of study and research is multidisciplinary and, therefore, can not deny the sciences that will support the right to build methods and theories that explain it. The interest in studying the geography of tourism reflects the relevance of social, political, cultural and economic activity that has gained in recent times. Besides being a major element that can enable economic development of regions, which is relevant to geographical studies, it is understood as a social necessity imposed by current patterns of sociability, reflecting their political and cultural character, making it an important object of study to geography.
