Summary This textbook provides a comprehensive learning resource material for tourism transportation. Exploring the interrelationship between transport and tourism, it demonstrates how different types of transportation systems interact and are combined within the tourism destination framework. It addresses topics such as the geographical aspects of tourism transportation, technological advances in transportation, public transportation in tourism, drive tourism, recreational transportation, and various forms of tourism, including car, rail, coach, water, cycling, and space tourism.
