Abstract

In recent years, the number of small independent tourism social enterprises has soared globally due to the rise of the Internet and tourists’ search for unique local experiences. These organizations are driven by a social purpose and have emerged as a reaction to conventional tourism development. They adopt a social justice approach with the aim to enhance community well-being. Importantly, they now exist as an accompaniment to the experiences provided by mainstream tourism that may not adequately satisfy the tourists’ quests for local, authentic, and high involvement experiences. This chapter reviews this independent operator context in Mauritius and examines the factors which contribute to meaningful local experiences.
小型旅游社会企业对地方经验的贡献
近年来,由于互联网的兴起和游客对独特的当地体验的追求,小型独立旅游社会企业的数量在全球范围内激增。这些组织是由社会目的驱动的,是对传统旅游发展的一种反应。他们采取社会公正的做法,目的是增进社区福祉。重要的是,它们现在作为主流旅游业提供的体验的伴奏而存在,这些体验可能无法充分满足游客对当地、真实和高参与度体验的追求。本章回顾了毛里求斯的独立经营者背景,并考察了有助于有意义的当地经验的因素。
