Summary

Introduction

Tourism has grown into a multi-billion-dollar business that helps many countries. Tourism's broad and rapid growth has turned into a dynamic social and economic phenomenon that has impacted many countries and communities. This phenomenon has had various unanticipated economic, sociocultural, and environmental consequences for both the host community and visiting visitors (Etiosa & Omoregie, 2012). In today's macroeconomic environment, tourism has emerged as a substantial source of revenue for many countries. The economic benefits of tourism, in developing nations, are felt when the community can benefit from them. Tourism in developing countries can be viewed as an industry that can deliver much-needed economic benefits in rural and isolated places. People with limited knowledge and financial means can participate in tourism development without outside assistance (Yanes et al, 2019)
