This book employs sociological thought to provide a novel approach to understanding the connection between the intersectionality of past, present, and future trends in tourism. The authors present an insightful ‘snapshot’ of our current times and highlight how several external trends such as technological advances, security challenges, economic issues, and pandemic disasters are fundamentally transforming tourism beyond the tourist gaze to ultimately shape and reshape the tourism experience and the future of travel for Millennials and Gen Zers. - DeMond Miller, Rowan University, USA

This volume places the youngest travellers at the core of scientific reflection. Applying a generational approach to the study of tourism and elaborating on technologies, the sharing economy and gender issues in tourism, it is a timely and useful resource capturing some significant peculiarities that will shape the future of tourism. - Marina Novelli, University of Brighton, UK
