چکیده

Transport is a necessary condition for tourism to exist; it often forms a key part of the tourist experience at the destination. The importance of non-motorized transport has been totally understated in the discussion of visitors at destinations.Whilst this is not the world of large scale projects, it is in reality the most common form of transport available to visitors and the management of walking trips is often crucial to the retail sector in tourism destinations and large scale attractions. Cycling is also important for short trips in many countries. Whilst destinations continue to build highways and parking in central zones, walk and cycle trips will decline except for the small enclave areas reserved for retailing. However, there is growing interest in developing non-motorized transport not only to ease congestion and reduce energyconsumption but also to enhance the destination as a tourism experience; again the sector has been undervalued. These elements are worthy of detailed research. This paper, however, focuses on a dilemma facing tourism planners, i.e. the need to improve access at destinations whilst simultaneously managing demand for tourism transport in a way which reduces energy consumption and detrimental environmental impacts.
