Abstract

In this study, the authors planned on doing a theoretical journey in the field of tourism. In this respect, the main theoretical approaches will be presented regarding the concept of tourism, its components - the tourist demand, the tourist offer, respectively their characteristics and the factors of influence. Last but not least, the forms of tourist activities will be addressed. The work ends with the presentation of the main trends of the tourist market in our country, by emphasizing the role of urban tourism and the preferences of consumers of tourist serivices. Tourism is in a continuous evolution, and the preferences of the consumers in the matter of vacations change from year to year. Therefore, nowadays the tourists are much more informed about the holiday, they know very well what exactly they want and under what conditions. They have begun to analyze more companies from which they want to buy vacations, are increasingly turning to trusted brands, even if they will pay a higher price for the same services of the tourist package. They prefer trusted agencies, and this does not appeal to small and lesser known agencies.
