Local People’s Perception of Halal Tourism and Arab Tourists: The Case of Sapanca

Abstract

The local people's perspective on tourism and tourists is an important factor in making a place a touristic destina-tion. The objective of this study is to examine local peo-ple’s perceptions on Arab tourists in the case of the district of Sapanca in the province of Sakarya in Turkey, and analyze the possible effects of local people’s atti-tudes and perceptions on the possibility of the Sapanca district to become a Halal tourism destination. To this end, data were collected through application of a survey by meeting face to face with 380 people living or working inside the borders of the Sapanca district and who had different demographic characteristics. In conclusion, the local people believed that tourism is important for the economic and social development of the district and thought that Sapanca could be a decent Halal tourism destination with actions to be taken and proper policies.
