INTRODUCTION

.

Introduction Heritage tourism is one of the fastest-growing segments of the tourism industry. It is widely believed that heritage tourism can successfully help preserve resources while boosting local economies by generating jobs, new businesses and tax dollars. However, little information exists about heritage tourism development, such as who should consider it, significant aspects and how to develop a successful heritage tourism site, initiative or program. This guidebook is designed to provide assistance to communities or individuals who are interested in developing heritage tourism to preserve historic and cultural resources and boost economies. It begins with an overview of tourism and the heritage tourism industry then identifies issues to consider before beginning a heritage tourism program. If a community or individual is interested in developing heritage tourism, this guidebook provides a step-by-step process including tips and success stories. This guidebook contains a resources section with additional information, as well as divisions and important contacts of the Texas Historical Commission (THC) and the Texas Heritage Trail Regions of the Texas Heritage Tourism Program (THTP) of the THC.

of the tourism industry and can successfully help preserve resources

In order to gain success through heritage tourism, the National Trust
for Historic Preservation suggests engaging in the following four-step
process. Each step is explored in detail throughout the guidebook.


 Step One: Assess the Potential

 Step Two: Plan and Organize

 Step Three: Prepare, Protect and Manage

 Step Four: Market for Success
