Before gaining anything about tourism lets know the definition of tourism "The sum total of the operation mainly of economic nature, which directly related to the entry, stay and movement foreigners inside and outside a certain country, city or region." the following definition of tourism was defined by Austrian economist Herman Van scheullard.
The word 'tourism' was derived from the French word 'tourisme'. The literal meaning is 'practice of touring and traveling'. It is a new concept and its significance fully realized very recently.
The concept of modern tourism can be dates back to the 19th century and origin of word tourist also can be dates back to 19th century but origin of word 'tourist' can be dates back to 1292 AD. The word 'tourist' was first derived from the word 'tour' and again the word 'tour' was derived from Latin word 'tornus' meaning 'tools for describing a circle or turnus wheel'.
Before developing the concept of tourism people did travel from one place to another but the difference was there was not any such word and pleasure like activity. On that period people used to travel for the purpose of hunting the animals or searching for food, seeking of knowledge, for the pilgrimage etc. Concept of modern tourism was started after the emergence of pleasure travel, which provides satisfaction and fulfills desire and interests of human beings.
