Overview

Tourism is one of the sectors that have undergone substantial change for several decades and in particular due to the restrictions and change in national and international policies since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. This book focuses on how tourism has been innovative, especially in light of these changes, by providing new and novel ways of introducing change into the marketplace. The book focuses on Spain and Portugal, thereby offering an interesting perspective as to how the Iberian Peninsula has adapted based on the new market conditions. This book is the first to focus specifically on these countries and offers an economic geography perspective on tourism innovation. This will provide useful and practical information about how a region has hurt but also thrived in times of global turmoil.
