Nature Tourism augments the current literature on the benefits and pitfalls in recent developments of nature tourism, tracing the history of development, highlighting the ecological impacts, and showcasing the current practices in nature tourism.

Along with discussions on specific tourist markets from holistic viewpoints, this book examines lessons learned from various destination nations and continents across the globe. This new second edition has been updated to include:

• New content and updates concerning sensory, slow experiences, eco-certification, therapeutic experiences, managing nature tourism, resilience, and crisis management.
• Expanded coverage on the brunt of climate change, along with a burgeoning concept of travel health, shaping both the demands and operations of potential nature destinations.
• Case studies from a wide range of developing and developed nations across Africa, America, Asia, Europe, and the Pacific.

This book offers significant insight into nature-based tourism and its future development. It will be of interest to upper-level students, researchers, and academics in tourism, environmental studies, development, and sustainability.
