Abstract

Tourism is one of the fastest growing industries nowadays and one of its specific features is its seasonality. This reflects in the unequable workflow of the tourist sites in the respective destinations. Bulgaria is a tourist destination which is characterized by a specific seasonal nature of the tourist product. In order to overcome the seasonality in tourism, it is necessary to achieve a more even distribution of visits to the tourist place over time by influencing the factors of seasonality - stimulating travel during the inactive and intermediate season, diversifying the types and forms of tourism in the destination and improving the quality and the range of services offered.
