Sustainable high-end tourism

Course Overview

Welcome to the sustainable high-end tourism course. Why should you take this course? High-end tourism is a sector and industry that has grown in the last 50 years in an exponential way across the globe. The recent developments in our world -with globalization and sustainability- need to be addressed in this high-end industry. In this course we will have a look at what makes that high-end tourism, what is essential in high-end luxury tourism, and what is not. We'll have a look at the main elements in the sustainability aspect of delivering that service. We'll have a look at how a customer looks at those elements. Because the client's perspective is essential. Once we know that, we'll have a look at how customers experience those products and services and how we manage them. Because lest we forget working in managing high-end tourism is all about creating that added value for the customer, for the personnel, and for those companies.
