The earth is an enormous place. Each person seeks different experiences. Not all places will be equally interesting for everyone. Each person travels for a specific purpose.

The expectations of tourists when they visit a specific place are linked to various aspects of the destination, such as its ethnicity, culture, environmental factors, historical significance, architectural design, culinary traditions, available infrastructure, natural scenery, local events, shopping opportunities, recreational activities, and on occasion, business opportunities.
