Leiper's Tourism System

Leiper's Tourism System models the tourism experience as a dynamic relationship between three main elements: the Tourist, the Destination, and the Providers (such as businesses and services). The Tourist interacts with the Destination through activities and experiences, while Providers serve the needs of tourists and contribute to the destination’s appeal. These components are interconnected, with flow and feedback among them, shaping the overall tourism experience. This system highlights how tourism is a complex, interactive process influenced by individual preferences, services offered, and the destination’s attractions, helping stakeholders understand and manage tourism more effectively.
