Dear readers

Welcome to the summer issue of Tourism Review Online Magazine. Enjoy your unique leisure holiday aboard a river cruise ship in Europe or North America. Learn more in the Transport supplement. The Heritage part presents a number of fascinating attractions and festivals for the lovers of the written word – the literary tourists. Those who prefer reality over fiction should open the Adventure supplement presenting a number of destinations where the visitors go to avoid crowds of tourists – desert island and remote places.

Tourism security is a hot issue these past few months thanks to a number of terror attacks around the world. The Professional part discusses the security policies of several countries where the tourists are scared to go. South Korea, the theme of the Destination supplement, has no problems with the safety of visitors. Beautiful nature, historical cities, modern downtowns – the country has it all. Enjoy the issue.
