 emergence of youth tourism industry, social and cultural differences in travel motivation of
 young people makes it important the analysis of youth tourism. Tourism is an indicator of the
 differences between social stratums of youth, therefore important to talk about the social and
 cultural differentiation of young people in tourism and analysis of the main approaches to the
 essence of differentiation in tourism. The authors consider the main theoretical component of the
 need to use the concept "socio-cultural differentiation" and its application in tourism concerning
 the youth.
 Needs of young people with similar socio-cultural characteristics and interests are the
 basis of the study of the socio-cultural aspects of the differentiation of youth in tourism. Within
 this framework, the concept of "group" is considered as collection of people based on common
 values, interests, standards, constant interaction, goals, interests, and limited with criteria of
 membership. Socio-cultural differentiation of youth is characterized by the cultural component
 of this process. As a result of the foregoing, it is necessary to study the basic aspects of group
 relations and the role of youth in the development of society. The main elements, typical for
 group relations of youth in tourism, are based on leisure interests. Development of a scientific
 approach to solving the problems of youth, as well as availability of social and public policy in
 tourism are the important elements of the issue of social and cultural differentiation. In such a
 case, youth is viewed through the prism of group relationships based primarily on common
 interests.
