Traveling for pleasure, travelling to experience new places and events, travelling to relax and get away from it all in other words, tourism. Ever since man first emerged from his cave-dwelling, it seems he felt the urge to travel. But tourism had to wait for the civilization of ancient Greece before it really got moving. The Olympic Games of 776 BC were the first international tourist event, with people travelling from many countries to watch and take part. Of course, if you want to travel from A to B, a good road is always an advantage, and we have a lot to thank the Romans for here. During the heyday of the Roman Empire they built thousands of roads. Some of the first people to take advantage of these roads were religious travelers visiting cathedrals, shrines, or holy sites the word holyday, after all, originally comes from holyday. Pilgrims like Geoffrey Chaucer would tell each other stories to entertain themselves on the road. Nowadays we have the in-flight movie in medieval times they had the Canterbury Tales! Gradually, more and more people caught the travel bug. At first it was the nobility who set out in the 17th and 18th centuries on their Grand Tours - an essential part of every young gentlemans education. At the same time the upper classes were flocking to spa towns like Bath and Cheltenham. They also enjoyed the healthy pleasures of sea-bathing at Brighton and other resorts. But it was the developments in transport that really opened up the tourist industry. First there were stagecoaches and coaching inns. Then came steam, and suddenly the world was a smaller place. Steamboats crossed the English Channel, and railways stretched their iron webs across the civilized world. No sooner had the first railways been built in the 1830s than enterprising men like Thomas Cook in England began to exploit their potential by selling organized tours. With excursions across continental Europe, the building of hotels and resorts to cater for the tastes of the pleasure-seekers, and the introduction of hotel vouchers and travelers cheques, the tourist industry in its modem form was born. By the end of 19th century the middle classes joined the tourist classes, and mass tourism was a reality.
