3. SYNTHESIS PHASE - tourism plans provide the “bridge” between the present
situation in a destination area. They provide the means to an end.
5. PLAN DEVELOPMENT - the last step of the tourism planning process is the
development of the plan. The plan includes the actions needed to achieve the
objectives, implement the strategy, and satisfy the planning goals.
BACKGROUND-ANALYSIS PHASE
The first step in tourism planning process is a situational analysis that provides basic
direction for the succeeding steps. This is the logical launching point for most tourism
plans since most destination areas, whether they are countries, state, provinces, region
or local communities, have some existing tourism activity and regulatory or policy
framework for industry.
In establishing a national tourism plan, the national tourism policy must first be considered
and interpreted. If a state or province has a tourism policy it should be carefully reviewed
at the start of the plan. Tourism policy goals are usually classified into four, namely:
economic, consumer / social, resource or environmental and government operations.
There is a hierarchy of goals and objectives in tourism policy making planning. The
tourism policy goal are the long term targets in the destination area that provide the frame
and rationale for supporting goals and objective. At each level in the hierarchy, the goals
and objectives become more specific and more action-oriented. Existing program or
activities of both the public and private sector organizations should also be identified in
the background analysis.
