Spiritual and Religious Tourism
This book reviews tourist motivations for making religious or spiritual journeys, and the management aspects related to them. It explores sacred journeys across both traditional religions such as Christianity and Islam, and newer forms of pilgrimage, faith systems and quasi-religious activities such as sport, music and food.

Religion and Tourism
This book explores the dynamic interaction between religion and tourism in the modern world, asking questions such as 'what are the relationships between tourism and pilgrimage?' and 'what happens to religious performances, places and festivals that function as tourist attractions?' Surveying the growing body of work in the field, Michael Stausberg argues that tourism should be a major focus of research within religious studies.
