Sažetak
In the context of globalisation and migration, tourism acquires new dimensions. It is our aim to reveal new trends in tourism and encourage readers to question the assumptions inherent in much writing about tourism. The article begins by defining the culture of tourism within the framework of contemporary society. Subsequently, the article considers some elements involved in the production of tourist places and the last part of the article highlights new trends in tourism related to embodied tourist practices. The central argument is that the traditional notions of tourism experiences and practices have been modified because of a range of contradictory socio-cultural developments occurring in the field of contemporary tourism.
