Abstract
Why one decides to take a tourist trip, why one chooses a certain destination, why one prefers a certain mode of transport, why …, these questions are at the very centre of tourism theoretics. If one answers these questions as a potential tourism consumer, consciously excluding all the influences wrought in various ways and by various media by individual suppliers of facilities, it can be determined that the basic impetus lies in the need of the human being—the tourism need — and in efforts to satisfy that need. Speaking in the terminology of economics: the tourist need foregoes of tourism use; it conditions and stimulates it.
