Popis: Purpose – In this paper, the authors argue that the blueprint that was organically developed over the course of approximately three centuries, from The Grand Tour to this day, is likely to see something close to a repeat in the development of that final frontier. Design/methodology/approach – The study used the methodology of reviewing the literature and model comparison. Findings – Opportunities will expand and change along the same trends that lead The Grand Tour to evolve into mass tourism, because as in the past people's perceptions about what is possible and reasonable will change the more common such once fictional ideas become reality. Originality/value – Nothing is in the current tourism literature, on this topic. This is new and unique.
