We can identify 3 basic components that make up the total demand for tourism.Effective or actual demand is the actual no. of participants in tourism or those who are traveling, i.e. De facto tourists. This is the component of demand most commonly and easily measured and the bulk of tourism statistics refer to effective demand.
