영문 초록

The central focus of this paper is the ongoing debate concerning the nature of the touristic experience and the factors identified by various writers as motivating people to leave their home environment for a holiday. The paper examines critically the arguments of diverse thinkers, assesses the strengths and weaknesses of their various positions, and explores their concept of 'the tourist'. It commences with a review of the literature and then outlines a fresh perspective on tourists' experiences. This critique is informed by research of tourists' experiences in Chalkidiki, Greece. A central conclusion to emerge from this discussion is that understanding tourists' experiences of their hosts and the visited community is a key element for the planning and promotion of the host community as an individual place.
