CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND TO STUDY
Tourism has been
defined by different Scholars in various ways, for instance, tourism may be
through the relationships and phenomenon arising out of the journey and
temporary stay of people traveling primarily for leisure or recreation purpose.
Okpara, A. (2001May
13) defined tourism as that industry which cater for the need of those away
from home. The industry cover the
selling of services such as accommodation, transportation (air, road, water and
rail entertainments, souvenir and other service that gave satisfaction to
visitors in a particular place. Thus
from the analogy, tourism is a phenomenohal of multiple professions it
encompasses the following occupation:-
-
Natural
discovery, excavation and preservation
-
Transportation
through Air, Sea, Road and Rail
-
Traveling
or touring documentation and facilitation.
-
Hotel
Accommodation and Catering
-
Cultural
and social exchanges
-
Auxiliary,
service like banking, postal communication medical and so on.
Also with its root in
nature development and the dynamic activities of man tourism across the entire
professions involves man, animals, herbs and even mother earth.
Therefore, it is the
mother of all industries. Tourism is a
hybrid of a most primitive industry with its involvement in nature conservation
and the most advanced industries in its catering for man’s need, taste and
fashion. Tourism as a conglomeration of
all industries undoubtedly engages the largest population of man in its revenue
generating capacity. This is why it is
being regarded as a gold mine if well harnessed.
Apart from the early
origins when tourism was basically for political religious and academic purpose
it can now be said to be an unrivalled commercial and industrial sources of
revenue globally.
Countries like
In these and other
countries tourism have prove to be catalyst required for the growth of the other
industries.
Ogunlade, (1997)
defined tourism as the migration of people, families and groups outside the
normal residential place for a limited period of time and they make the choice
themselves.
Furthermore, Oludiran
(1995) stated that tourism is an instrument to create social peace; it levels
out the incomes of the people and reduce tensions between the rich and the poor
and little tension within the population because there is not such a big
difference between the very rich and the poor.
Also he said, it is
important to note that investments of tourism is long run not only for the sake
of tourist but they are very important for the local population and due to
development of tourist, one is not confronted with flow of people from the
rural areas to the cities.
Valerile Smith (1997)
identified several types of tourism based on travel experiences provided at the
various destinations and these are
-
Ethnic Tourism:- This type of tourism is for the
purpose of observing the cultural expression and life style of people in the
tourism destination.
-
Cultural Tourism:- This entails traveling or experience
or at times participating in varnishing life style that lies within human
memory.
-
Historical Tourism:- This is traveling to place of
historical values to learn about events of the past eg a visit to Badagry to
see slave chain used in the past.
-
Eco-Tourism:- This is a types of tourism in
which one travels to appreciate the work of nature, which may include flora
fauna, various landscape or landform etc.
-
Recreation Tourism:- This is a kind of tourism which
involve participation on sport and social contact in a relaxed
environment. Such areas often include
remote area, sandy beach.
-
Business Tourism:- This is characterized as
convention meetings, seminars at places different from one’s place of
residence.
In this wise, tourism
is said to be incomplete in the absence of hospitality industry, which
guarantees the comfort of the Tourist from the time of arrival to departure
time.
Facilities provided
for tourist fall into two main categories:-
-
Those
which are common to all types of resorts wherever they may be located,
providing for general tourists needs such as accommodation, catering,
entertainment, leisure and relaxation.
-
Those
which are identified with particular localities utilizing the resources of the
site and surrounding for more specific pursuit increation which characterized
the nature of the resort e.g. seaside mountain etc.
Hospitality industry
see to the well being of the tourists at their destination during their stay
such as providing accommodation, food, drink, relaxation, sight seeing and
other services.
Hence hospitality
industry is an important branch of Tourism, which cannot be neglected. Hospitality industry develops side by side
with ‘Tourism in order to meet the demand of the prospective buyers of Tourism.
A tourist that is
leaving his home for another place where he has no relation will need a place
to rest his head in the night or a place to relax after business.
Hospitality industry
has an important and expanding role to play in improving the nation’s economy
through tourism industry. Hospitality is
of different categories, ranging from image created at the embassy and
indigenous hospitality received by the tourists.
The hospitality
industry itself comprises the hotel, motel, guests houses, hostel and social
centres etc. The later group is what
this project will expatiate mostly on.
The industry is of different types namely intra-state, inter state,
international or regional depending on the reasons and interest of the tourist.
Nigeria is blessed
with variety of tourism potentials, such as Rivers, mountains, sea, beaches,
water falls, landscape, historical monuments, crafts pottery, game reserves,
zoo forest, wild-life, golden sand of Victoria beaches, sun, warm springs,
diversity of culture, exotic food, oceans, markets and numerous festivities.
In no doubt
