Domestic Tourism: A Powerful Tool for Rural Revitalization and Economic Growth in Nigeria

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, several factors have influenced Nigerians, to choose domestic travel over international options. First, safety and familiarity play a significant role. Domestic destinations are perceived as safer due to familiarity with local health and safety protocols, and tourists feel more confident within their own country during uncertain times. Second, reduced international mobility due to travel restrictions and global conflicts has made domestic options more accessible and convenient. Lastly, economic considerations come into play. The pandemic and political instability have disrupted livelihoods, making domestic travel a more affordable choice. As a result, people prioritize essential needs by opting for local destinations.
