  10. Conclusion • Tourism is vital for many countries. • All good vacations have one thing in common, careful planning. • If money is a concern, make a budget and stick to it. Decide how much you want to spend. • Know what your rights and responsibilities are as a travel consumer. Read and understand the fine print in any travel agreements you sign.
