Rural tourism has been increasing rapidly over the last two decades. Many factors have contributed to this trend.
Briefly, people are taking more and shorter trips, doing more traveling by car, combining business travel with
vacations, looking for new experiences, adding diversity to their experiences, traveling as a family, and looking to
“get back to their roots.” In most cases, one family member has a grandparent who grew up on a farm/ ranch or in a
rural community. These are the “roots” tourists want to visit.
