For SCOTO, which is working at a grassroots level across Scotland, community tourism is where a community enterprise or a geographic community is directly involved in shaping and managing the tourism offers in their area and ensuring tourism derives tangible benefits locally.
Historically many communities have felt that tourism happens to them rather than with them but there is a growing sense that tourism can be a force for good.
