The past few years had revealed drastic change in this sector in terms of its advancement and development. These have also given birth to several other issues which are affecting the industry slowly. So, it is essential to eliminate these issues. Rome lies in the list of most prominent places in Europe and so it is always crowded with travellers (Conrady and Buck, 2011). This place has developed immensely according to the present era and it has its own history. There are several problems that make an impact on the local environment, society, etc. of this place as huge number of visitors visits this place every day. Some of the issues and advancements are as follows:  Terrorism: It is among the most emerging problems in the tourism sector. Terrorists visit the places as tourists in order to fulfil their bad intentions. Rome is also facing such issues. Recently, some terrorists have blasted the embassy of Rome in which several people lost TOLL-FREE NO: +61 879057034 EMAIL: help@assignmentprime.com WHATSAPP NO: +61 424715655 WEBSITE: https://www.assignmentprime.com ASSIGNMENT HELP & WRITING SERVICES AUSTRALIA

5. their lives in this incident. Though this incident has made the government of Rome to tighten the security but still people are afraid of such activities (Geraghty and Torres, 2009).  Rise in globalisation: Globalisation has a positive as well as negative impact on the tourism and travel industry. It has raised awareness among the people and as a result the city has become capable of attracting more tourists. As a result, income level of the citizens has been increased which has helped them in developing themselves. However, it has also affected culture of the society adversely and had inspired the people from all over the world to visit the city (Platzer, 2014).  Changing customer needs: The demands and needs of the customers keeps on changing with the time. So, the organizations in the city are compelled to adopt the same in their businesses. Thus, in order to increase the customers, the companies are rendering different packages as per the needs and demands of the customers.  Environment: The increasing number of tourists has resulted in degradation in the environment of the city. Tourists visit the places and leave their wastes at the places. It destroys the beauty of the place and the wastes also give birth to various insects. Besides this, some people harm the ancient paintings and walls of the ancient buildings. It has created tension for the local government (Dieke, 2013).  Liberalization: The strict policy of Italy regarding the visa has diverted many tourists from the city. So, they move to other countries. This has brought a downfall in the tourism industry.

6. Illustration 1: Rome Source: (Sandhusen, 2000) 1.2 Analysis of the current issues through appropriate methods and resources Tourism and travel industry is one of the most dynamic industries of the world and is influenced by different factors. Many new issues are rising due to the development of these industries. All the tourist destinations have some similar and some dissimilar issues depending upon the country and the number of visitors. Italy is among the best tourist destinations with a huge cultural history. On the basis of different journal articles and news papers, Italy has been ranked 7th among the world in terms of the tourist destinations (Winiarski, 2005). In 2013, tourist spent almost £824 million in Italy and more than 1,793,000 people visited the country. Despite of this, the travel industry of this country faces several issues. The unstable political conditions of Italy have created many issues in Rome as well. The government of the country is not much supportive and also the strict laws of the country do not attract many tourists. Global warming is one of the problems which have been given importance these days. This is harming the ecological balance of the world and is also affecting the country's local wildlife because many of the species have become extinct. Various modes of taxes are levied on the travellers of the city which hampers the growth of tourism. The cost of travelling has increased because of the taxes. As a result, people avoid visiting this place. The travel organisations of the country are also not developed appropriately as people usually complain them about the poor customer services. Besides this, competition among various TOLL-FREE NO: +61 879057034 EMAIL: help@assignmentprime.com WHATSAPP NO: +61 424715655 WEBSITE: https://www.assignmentprime.com ASSIGNMENT HELP & WRITING SERVICES AUSTRALIA

7. tourism organisations has increased immensely (Bittner, 2011). Due to this reason, they have started posting wrong information on the websites about the places which has resulted in the destruction of the image of the city. The tourism business is also affected by the increasing Barbary pirates and terrorist activities in the country. People hesitate visiting the country due to such issues. The large number of tourists has disturbed the balance of the environment and it leads to several health problems as well. Rise in toxic waste, pollution, etc. are impacting the people’s health adversely and illnesses such as asthma have also become common in the country. Further, an alteration in the culture of the nation can also be seen due to these issues as the practices like smoking, drinking and gambling are increasing in the country because of the tourists. These practices leads to negative impact on the localities and are affecting the uneducated local people as well. Organizations are altering the businesses as per the wants and needs of the people for serving the customer in a better way (Mohr, Sengupta and Slater, 2009). For providing the innovative services and products, it is important to adopt the changes; else the firm may have to shut down.

Several sites are turning to great tourism attraction because of the sensitive nature of the dark tourism. Some of the destinations that come under the category of dark tourism are Toledo and Edinburgh, Prison like Beaumaris, Wales, Culloden in Scotland, etc. Dark tourism sites are becoming famous with the passage of time and differ extremely in TOLL-FREE NO: +61 879057034 EMAIL: help@assignmentprime.com WHATSAPP NO: +61 424715655 WEBSITE: https://www.assignmentprime.com ASSIGNMENT HELP & WRITING SERVICES AUSTRALIA

8. their presentation of death. People are generally less influenced to such type of places, but recently this sort of tourism is in great demand. In terms of supply, there has been a growth in the provisions of these experiences or attractions and all this has attracted many organisations. Companies are making different travel and tour packages as per the demand of the customers and is providing them with lots of other facilities as well. All this have resulted in an increase in profits (Liu and et. al., 2014). People associate these places as an adventurous trip and comments that it is an amazing place for spending the holidays. People visit these sites for fun as well as for the purpose of learning the history of these places. Many educationalists and researchers visit these places for writing reports on them as they are quite interesting. Many documentary and film makers also visit these places for shooting their movies in order to give them a real feel. Regulatory bodies have also started to support these places by offering special facilities and benefits to the tourists who are visiting these places. Few of the places have been declared as the World Heritage Sites by UNESCO so that, they can be protected from exploitation. These places have become vacation home for many tourists, they visit and relish at these places for long duration. These places are also helpful in the development of the local community because local people get jobs as a guide to tourist and this is resulting in an increase in their personal income. Many private and government organisations are spending a considerable amount on advertising of these places through TV, social network, internet, etc. and also organise some global occasions near these places for attracting more tourists (Hwang, 2007). However, with these benefits there are some issues as well, like when the tourists are told about the history of the places, they sometimes take it as fun and ignore the feelings and emotions of the local people. Also, some guides exploit the history of the people and the places by telling a fake story to the tourists. Many companies fool the tourists by giving them pay extra and false taxes and by charging high fees from them. Thus, it is essential to protect these places as they are not just the adventurous places but are the part of the world's history as well. 2.2 Analysis of the current trend Dark tourism is gaining popularity now a days around the world by influencing lots of tourists to these sites. The ghost town of Edinburgh and Toledo in Scotland are among the most popular dark tourism sites (Chen, 2009). These places can be analysed with the help of a case study. Case Study: Toledo and Edinburgh have connection from the past of human calamity. Many aficionados TOLL-FREE NO: +61 879057034 EMAIL: help@assignmentprime.com WHATSAPP NO: +61 424715655 WEBSITE: https://www.assignmentprime.com ASSIGNMENT HELP & WRITING SERVICES AUSTRALIA

9. crave to visit Scotland because according to the Paranormal Witness report, Toledo and Edinburgh are regarded as UK's most haunted places that have recorded more than 700 paranormal sightings in the past 25 years. Edinburgh is also known as the city of deaths. This place has a live history of more than a thousand years and there is always an untold violent history for the place. Because of all these reasons, this place develops as one among the best tourist spots in UK. The city delivers wide variety of ghost walks and tours. In terms of dark tourism, Toledo is also an important city due to the sites like Holy Grail Trail, Table of Solomon, etc. both these cities have developed due to the dark tourism. Thousands of people visit these places every year and it has supported the local people in developing themselves. Many people work as tourist guides, some people offer the tourists a place to live, eat, etc. (Ashworth and Page, 2011). Government is also providing support to the cities by developing infrastructure for attracting more tourists. Several horror documentaries and movies are shot at these places and had become popular among the academic students and the researchers. Methodology: Majority of research imparted within the context of dark tourism is of qualitative nature only and hence it pay less efforts on the tourists, managers, etc. that attribute to the attraction of the dark tourist. In this context, Semi structured interviews are focused from the tour managers of Edinburgh and interviews were conducted in the innate language of the cities. Several notes and photographs are also taken along with the video of Toledo's ghost trip. The tourists were divided among three parts by the cities- first part included the curious people, second part included the people who visit the place just for time-pass and the third part included the people that has taken keen interest in the history of the places. Edinburgh has undergone many changes during the past time as all the companies have put their advertisements on the Royale Mile. Along with these visits, several other data was collated with the help of primary and secondary resources as well such as books, magazines, government publication, journals, etc. It was analysed from this tour that, these places are famous at the present time and are becoming more popular because they are now being advertised as well (Cant, Strydom and Jooste, 2009). Also, several companies are also providing special tour packages for such type of places. Despite of all these advancements, places are still losing the charm or beauty because of their exploitation by the locals as well as the tourists.

10. TASK 3 3.1 Ways in which travel and tourism can respond to changes Tourism and travel sector is considered as one among the active sector in the world which can be affected by the alterations in the external factors of the country. It is very essential for the industry to adopt the changes according to the situations in order to remain profitable and for serving large number of tourists. London is viewed as top most destination of UK that caters the attention of large set of tourists every year. London is the first city to respond to any deviations in the political conditions and laws of UK. London responds accordingly to make other industries, like tourism and travel industry, operate effectively in the economy. Further, the tourism industry is also affected by the changes in the social factors in London as the tourism sector has to be developed according to the change in behaviour and demand of the people. It also needs to maintain itself keeping in view the possible natural disasters (Fyall and Garrod, 2005). In addition to these issues, the tourism industries has to face several other factors like terrorism, taxes, recession, health issues, etc. and it is very important to manage them effectively.

11. PEST Analysis: Illustration 2: PEST Analysis (Source: Khodarahmi, 2009)  Political factors: The local government is being affected by the travel and tourism industry for reducing different illogical taxes imposed on the tourists. Several securities and policies have been tightened by the government due to the terrorist attacks; this has also affected the tourism as the tourist does not like to be inspected at each and every place. Recently, London Olympic 2012 have enhanced the total number of tourists in the city which helped mentioned industry in showing its potential. Besides this, several airline companies also bring lucrative packages. But, these packages contain few hidden costs that influence the decisions of the tourists.  Economic factors: The whole economy of London was disturbed due to the tourist’s attacks and this resulted in cautious business spending. Also, some investments that were being postponed earlier have not been sanctioned till date. All these factors affected the tourism industry by creating huge losses (Hassanien, 2006). But, the industry has struggled to rise again and is gaining popularity because it includes many people and they are earning good income.  Social factors: It is evident from this that the city can attract more customers and has great TOLL-FREE NO: +61 879057034 EMAIL: help@assignmentprime.com WHATSAPP NO: +61 424715655 WEBSITE: https://www.assignmentprime.com ASSIGNMENT HELP & WRITING SERVICES AUSTRALIA
