With a large number of tourists, many popular tourist destinations become crowded while their sightseeing becomes more and more difficult and burdensome. Crowds of tourists also cause difficulties for the local community and disturb their everyday life. It happens that by failure to respect the specific rules, tourists destroy the places they visit, drop litter, and negatively affect the environment. In order to find a balance between promoting tourism, protecting the place visited and making life easier for the local inhabitants, it is necessary to take into account the objectives of sustainable tourism. However, not everyone is aware of this concept, and often, despite being familiar with it, some tourists behave in their specific way. Bearing this in mind, research has been carried out to verify the knowledge and understanding of tourism-related issues in the context of sustainability. The survey was conducted using a structured interview with 26 respondents from three countries of the Visegrád Group who were asked to answer five questions about sustainability and sustainable tourism and its integration into everyday life. The most interesting statements were collected and commented on. It can be observed that despite the understanding of the assumptions of both concepts, the respondents do not always use them for planning and during the travel. All the research will continue in other European countries to compare the behavior of tourists from different regions of the continent.Citas
