説明

Africa is widely regarded as having the best wildlife ecotourism in the world. Over the past several decades the tourist industry in East and Southern Africa has grown dramatically, but there have been two completely different approaches regarding implementation. The countries that can be regarded as pioneers in this field are Tanzania and Kenya, both of whom adopted a mass tourism approach whereby they tried to attract as many visitors as possible. Later, Botswana began to develop ecotourism but along completely different lines. Instead of the Tanzanian/Kenyan model of high volume tourism, Botswana opted for a low volume, low impact but high value policy. 　Based on observations and interviews made during trips to Botswana (2019) as well as to Kenya and Tanzania (2022), together with a review of the literature, this paper will examine the situation and problems affecting safari tourism in Africa in general, and then consider the situation, problems and challenges faced by each of the above nations while comparing and contrasting the positive and negative implications of each of the two tourism models under discussion.
