Abstract
As discussed throughout this work, tourism involves different experiences that allow the construction of the act of travel and be a tourist. The experience of the other, of itself, the exotic, consumption, risk, nature, among others, are all particularly unique and meaningful experiences when lived in not everyday spaces, away from the comforts of the place you know well, where one lives daily. Such experiences have been increasingly discussed by social scientists in the constant search for better understanding of the human being in society, in its various manifestations.
