tourism revenue

Visitor spending earnings

Tourism revenue is money generated by visitors to a destination—from hotels, restaurants, attractions, transportation, and souvenirs.

Governments and economists track it as an indicator of the travel industry's economic impact: Tourism revenue accounts for nearly a quarter of the island nation's GDP.

The term often appears in discussions of seasonal economies and destination marketing.
