Description This unit considers concepts of tourism management and explores the structure of tourism from a systems approach across an Australian and international context. Consideration is given to the tourist motivation to explore why tourism is undertaken, ranging from the traditional to special interest. The objectives and benefits/risks are considered from each stakeholder's perspective where stakeholders may include relevant government organisations, tour operations, consumers, and service providers throughout the Tourism Supply Chain. Planning of the tourist experience is also explored to provide an improved understanding and management of tourists
