Get ready to celebrate National Tourism Day on May 7 and explore the world around you! This day was created in 1980 as a way to recognize and appreciate how much tourism contributes to our economy.

Let's get out there this May 7th - it will be a day of adventure that won't soon be forgotten!
Take the day to explore a new city or town you’ve never been to before. Check out the local attractions, shops and restaurants, and get to know the area.

Spend the day researching destinations for your next vacation. Read up on the different sites and attractions in each area so you can plan out your itinerary in advance.
Find a local guided tour and join in for the day. You’ll get an up close and personal look at the destination with all of its history, culture and important sites.
When people visit an area, they bring money with them. Tourism can help create jobs, bring in taxes to the local government and even support small businesses that are otherwise only supported by locals. Tourists can also benefit communities by increasing cultural awareness and appreciation for different places and cultures.
The best part of any tourist destination is the chance to explore a new culture and environment. By experiencing different parts of the world we not only develop a greater knowledge of foreign countries but also gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for our own.
Outdoor tourism can be a great way to reconnect with nature. From hiking through lush forests to kayaking down rivers, there are plenty of ways to appreciate the beauty of our natural world without having to step too far from home. Plus, plenty of regional parks and protected areas make it easy for anyone to get out and explore!
