Photo: Pexels/Markus Spiske By Frank Martin The international tourism industry will finally not have to resort to a fortune teller to know what the financial climate will be like in the sector in 2030. Many opinions agree that the weather in that sense will be sunny when finally arrives. Although there are some dissonant opinions.

Pixabay/ hoeldino by Frank Martin Specialists in global international tourism affirm that the multiple innovations in the cultural modality are currently key pieces in an important and general effort that benefits the full recovery of that industry.
