Middle East Tourism Spend Analytics: Drivers and Restraints
Tourism is an important sector for the Middle Eastern countries who want to wean off the dependence of their economy from the income derived from oil. Hence the governments are taking the necessary steps in encouraging the building of tourist infrastructure in the region. Saudi Arabia is an important centre for religious tourism and is taking steps to benefit more from the influx of foreign tourists coming from all over the world.
Besides, due to the presence of cosmopolitan cities such as Dubai, the entire region of the Middle East is expected to welcome more and more tourists. These are the major drivers of the tourism sector in the Middle East. However, a volatile political situation coupled with incidences of terrorism have adversely affected the tourism sector in the region and act as a major restraint to the development of tourism in the Middle East.
