Review of: "Agritourism: a source for socio-economic transformation in developing economies"
Résumé
The topic is important in the context of growing tourist demand for authentic, unique and educational/learning experiences.Agritourism can indeed play an important role in the socio-economic revitalisation of some rural areas while providing financial security to small farmers after the farming season is over.This correlation is not established in the introduction.In addition, the word 'transformation' in the title is misleading because in most developed and developing countries (except for the wine and cheese routes in South Africa) agritourism is only an auxiliary activity to farming.It can only evolve into a transformative force through the application of specific tourism development strategies, such are theming and clustering.Otherwise, in the context of this article, agritourism should be discussed as Special Interest Tourism.
