I Am Such A Tourist | Ali Al Naama

I'm Such a Tourist takes a comprehensive look at my experiences in the $7 trillion tourism industry and the more than one billion people to whom it caters. It provides crucial insight into what makes a good tourist and how to make a business thrive, regardless of the industry. This book invites the reader on a journey through time and space that begins with the ?rst travellers and ends in a future full of countless possibilities for the globetrotting excursionist. I'm Such a Tourist examines all aspects of the industry, from what makes a tourist to eye-popping, behind-the-scenes looks at what goes on in an industry that employs nearly three hundred million people-almost one in ten of all jobs-worldwide. The most customer-service-oriented, people-pleasing business, the travel industry deals with every aspect of a person's life: food, sleep, emotional needs-you name it. And so far, it's done a pretty good job. From tourism's most primitive beginnings during the Age of Exploration to cable TV channels, Internet websites, Hollywood theme parks, and the mega cruise ships of today's modern era to the outer reaches of space in the future, I'm Such a Tourist is a tribute to the most unique industry in the world. Equal parts history lesson, memoir, and business text, this book will make you rethink the world around you.
