Tourism of young people has its separate, specific place in the trends in contemporary tourism. Students constitute a social group that has substantial free time resources at hand, and therefore, form one of the most touristically active society groups. This articles aims at analyzing tourist activity of Szczecin universities students, and in particular, in detecting the relations between the variables characterizing their holiday. Simple statistic methods in the field of structure analysis and multidimensional correspondence analysis were used as a scientific tool.
