Abstract
Tourism is a vital sector that presents one of the ways of economic diversification of a country. It has become a major economic activity that plays an important role in bringing people, countries, and regions together. In addition, it is an area promoted as a strategic sector since it provides a high percentage of foreign exchange earnings and represents a major share of GDP. Also, it provides a large number of jobs, especially for the most vulnerable groups in the society, including women, young people, and the low-skilled. Boosting this sector would result in remedying the inadequacy of the budgets allocated to the sector to allow maximum investments and to improve the business climate.
