Multi-stop or multi-destination tourism refers to trips in
which multiple destinations - either inside the same country or in different
countries - are visited as a part of a bigger holiday package. Promoting and
selling the idea of multi-stop trips to customers requires the joint effort
between either different locations within a single country, or between
different countries.
Multi-destination tourism is growing in popularity globally
Multi-destination trips have been around for a long time,
especially in Europe, where grand tours were common in the 17th and 18th
centuries; however, this type of tourism was only available to wealthy people
from the European nobility. Europe is also the place where residents have been
able to travel using Eurail Passes since 1959, and Interrail Passes since 1972,
allowing them to travel via train either regionally and locally. This type of
tourism has further grown in recent years, expanding not just in Europe, but
everywhere in the world. This increase is facilitated by a more affordable
tourism industry, improved air connectivity, a boom in the number of IT tools
offering trip-planning solutions, the large expansion of the shared economy,
and the facilitation of visa processes in certain parts of the globe, such as
the Schengen area in Europe.
