" Travel is the change in location of people on a trip through the means of transport from one location to another. Travel is most commonly for recreation (as part of tourism or to visit friends and family), for business or for commuting; but may be for numerous other reasons. A travel agent is the professional who assists you with your travel plans.


This is the second of four courses which form "Introduction to Tourism" a course contained within the Diploma in Applied Travel and Tourism programme. Once all four courses have been completed those enrolled will also have gained the National Certificate in Tourism (Core Skills) Level 3.
