Wikivoyage:Tourist office

(Redirected from Wikivoyage:TO)
Welcome to the tourist office

The Wikivoyage tourist office is a place where you can ask travel-related questions about any place in the world. Wikivoyage volunteers will do their best to find the relevant information (or just reply off the top of their expert heads) and reply to you.

Before you ask your question here, be sure to search our travel guide for the destination or topic you're considering. Many questions are already answered within our guides! In addition, some of our destinations have docents who have volunteered to answer questions about specific places. If neither of those avenues bear fruit, then please ask away!

This page is for travel-related questions only. Information on how to contribute to Wikivoyage is at Help:Contents, while questions about Wikivoyage itself may be posed at the Pub. Queries regarding general information on non-travel topics may be made at Wikipedia's Reference desk; some topics tangentially related to travel include:

  • the Humanities desk, which deals with geopolitics, culture, and human geography
  • the Science desk, which deals with natural processes, physical geography, and engineering (vehicles, transportation design, etc.)

Please note that we can not guarantee a response and can not be held liable for incorrect or outdated information.

Answered questions will be moved to the Archives after two weeks of inactivity.

Want a faster answer?

How can I get my question answered?

  • Explain clearly what you want to know.
  • Provide a short heading that gives the general topic of the question.
  • Tell us what part of the world your question applies to.
  • Don't post personal contact information – it will be removed. We'll answer here within a few days.
  • Don't post questions that common sense or a search engine can answer in a couple of seconds.

Disclaimer

This is a travel guide that anyone can edit and that relies entirely on volunteer contributions. We do our best, but nothing on this page or elsewhere on the site can be guaranteed to be up-to-date or entirely accurate.

In particular, check with other sources for questions that can have serious consequences:

  • With your doctor for health issues
  • With your own government, or another, for travel advisories that may help you avoid dangerous areas
  • With the government of the destination country for visas and travel restrictions
  • With a lawyer for other legal issues

Nothing on this site should be taken as medical or legal advice.

This seems like a particular type of history, not something you'd see in a travel guide, and are all those stages really applicable? Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:58, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
IMO, this is something you'd try to contact a tourism board for – most of us here don't work professionally in the industry. --SHB2000 (t | c | m) 23:36, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Janda Baik was founded in 1930 and I think tourism is a relevantly recent industry in the town, so much of it would have developed in living memory. Janda Baik article was started in 2007, so you may get some history by looking at how the article has changed over the years.
A full answer probably requires a visit to the area during a quiet time. Then go and speak to the management of hotels, restaurants and other businesses. Visit the library and look at copies of old local newspapers reporting on building etc. The librarian can probably suggest other sources of local information.

The first few stages of the Butler's life cycle model are basically self-explanatory. For examples, at the beginning, only a small number of travellers are attracted by some cultural events, natural landscapes or unique attractions, this is the “exploration” stage. Motivated by the income from the tourist industry, local people start to provide some facilities for tourists, such as accomodation, this is the “involvement” stage. The key is the “stagnation” stage, where the number of tourists are “Tourism Carrying Capacity” of the natural environment. The destruction to the natural environment, deforestation as in the case of Janda Baik, harms the natural environment and reduces the attractiveness of the place. Tourists seek for new destinations and the tourism industry concerned declines. Whether this will be followed by a further decline or a rejuvenation, is highly dependent on the abilities of the government officers. In the case of Janda Baik, if it can attract a large number of investors to set up factories (such as factories for making electronic products), revival will follow, but in the form of a new industry, not tourism.

Is it correct that you need to enter Vietnam on the exact date of entry mentioned in the evisa?

edit

In the Entry Requirements section on the Vietnam's Wikivoyage page, the following is mentioned: > However, you must enter on the date and at the place stipulated on the visa; you will be denied entry if you arrive on the wrong date [...]

Does it mean that if the date of entry on the evisa is 4th December and it is valid till the 4th of January, we can enter only on 4th of December? That's how the wording sounds like to me. I couldn't find this specific thing anywhere else on the internet. My understanding is that we can enter on any date in the validity period provided the port remains same.
