Sustainability and Health Tourism

Thomas Rieger ()

A chapter in Sustainability in Tourism, 2013, pp 53-68 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The leisure time activities of many people have fundamentally changed during recent decades. Styles of individualisation, different consumer behaviours, consumption of fun and adventure, advanced globalisation, increasing luxury and a new health and body awareness are popular phenomena. These variables can characterise the changes in people’s lifestyles and the tourism market has also been affected by these developments.
