Following regional tourism cooperation, the promotion of balanced sustainable development has begun to play a vital role in the tourism industry. Using the West Coast of the Strait urban agglomeration, China, as an example, this study uses a data envelopment analysis (DEA) to analyzes the nonlinear relationship between tourism economic contact intensity and tourism industry efficiency by constructing a mixed effect model. The results show the following: (1) In the early stage of regional tourism cooperation, the efficiency of the tourism industry will decrease with an increase in the intensity of tourism economic contact. As regional cooperation tends towards a stable stage, the efficiency of the tourism industry will continue to increase with the strengthening of the intensity of tourism economic contact. (2) The regional economic level harms the efficiency of the tourism industry. The urbanization level has a positive effect on the efficiency of the tourism industry. (3) The level of opening up and transportation development in the region will not only bring tourism resources or tourists, but also lead them to flow out. They have no significant impacts on the efficiency of the tourism industry.

Tourism is one of the most important sectors of the Ukrainian economy. Analysis of the tourism potential of the country and its individual regions, in particular its attractiveness – the ability to attract potential tourists, is necessary for the effective functioning of the tourism sector. The purpose of the article is to justify the socio-geographical approach to assessing the tourist potential’s attractiveness of the region and analyse the conditions and factors for such estimation in the objective (quantitative) and subjective (qualitative) dimensions on the basis of factor criteria and performance indicators. The tourist potential’s attractiveness of the region is the degree of attractiveness of the natural, ethnocultural, socio-historical and other tourist resources of the region, its socio-economic and transport infrastructure, reception places and attendants. The tourist potential’s attractiveness of the Carpathian region is ensured by its diversity of relief forms, the picturesque of landscapes, the presence of unique wild nature areas, a significant amount of rivers, the purity of natural waters, a lot of forests, and the richness of flora and fauna. The wealth of anthropogenic tourism resources of the Carpathian region leads to a high attraction of the social segment of the tourist potential of the Carpathian region. All regional centres, a lot of small towns and villages, which have survived, the samples of Old Ukrainian church wooden architecture, castles, religious buildings, defensive structures, old residential and economic buildings of the region have a high attraction. The attractiveness is also ensured by the presence of numerous parks, cafes, restaurants, theatres, museums, cultural and lifestyle habits of local residents, including Hutsuls and Boyks. Along with this, a combination of natural and social tourism resources created in the Carpathian region favourable conditions for the development of all kinds of ethnic and event tourism, rural green tourism. Based on the analysis of approaches to the component of the tourism potential’s assessment and attractiveness, own socio-geographical approach to the construction of a system for assessing the tourist potential’s attractiveness of the region has been formed. These include natural tourist resources, tourist resources of anthropogenic origin, tourist infrastructure, marketing and pricing policies, labour resources, provision of catering facilities, sports and entertainment facilities, the level of transport infrastructure’s development, tourist safety, environmental quality, finance, investment in tourism sphere, general image of the region, economic attractiveness, management, state support and political stability, information. The peculiarity of the proposed approach is to assess the conditions and factors of the tourism potential of the region in an objective and subjective way. Each of these characteristics is described by relevant factor criteria and may be defined by specific quantitative and / or qualitative indicators. With the help of the constructed indicators’ system of tourism potential attraction estimation, we are able to quantitatively and qualitatively estimate the level of tourism industry development in the Ukrainian regions; to highlight the causal relationships in determining the level of tourist potential’s attractiveness; to identify the factors that influence the development of tourism activity, in that destabilizing; to carry out monitoring of tourism activity in the region with the possibility of predicting changes in tourist activity taking on its basis optimal managerial decisions at the state and regional levels. Key words: tourist potential, tourist potential’s attractiveness, Carpathian region, natural and anthropogenic tourist resources.

This article is devoted to the actual problem of providing the regional tourism markets with high-quality specialists. It is found that, despite the large number of higher education institutions that train specialists for the tourism industry and the constant updating of educational standards, tourism businesses and organizations in the country suffer from a lack of competent specialists, while graduates cannot find work in their profession. The research has been conducted in Transcarpathian region by the method of expert survey of owners and managers of successful tourism enterprises. The research technology is presented in details: a step-by-step definition of the nature of the requirements that employers impose the graduates of tourist specialties; analysis of educational standards and work programs of educational disciplines to meet these requirements in the preparation process; identification of reasons that do not allow to prepare the much-needed specialist on the regional labour market in higher education institutions; concrete steps are suggested to improve the educational process. It is found that the learning outcomes laid down in the educational standards are determined by the manufacturer of educational services, they are more oriented to the needs of large tourism enterprises, and do not meet the needs of employers at least because most tourist enterprises and organizations in the country are small and medium in size. Training programs shall be focused on regional tourism markets, since the requirements for tourism professionals differ depending on the type of tourism activity, the size of the enterprise, the region of its operation. Owners of tourist complexes in Transcarpathia prefer to see at their enterprises multi-skilled managers (specialists), who are immediately ready to fulfill their functional responsibilities in their primary positions. For solving the problem of human resources in the tourist market of Transcarpathia it is recommended: to define and detail the expectations of the heads of regional tourism enterprises; to prepare curricula and work programs in accordance with these expectations, formulating learning outcomes in accordance with SMART technologies; to create the conditions for the implementation of these programs.

Purpose. Consider the problems of a tourist destination on the example of a capital city with an emphasis on the structure, mechanism, basic elements and stages of high-quality tourist services, in the context of the formation of the destination "Kiev" as an element of a modern smart city. Methodology. Analytical, statistical, graphic, systemic and comparative geographical methods were used. Approbation. The main conceptual issues of the formation of tourist destinations and the problems of their accompanying components were studied by domestic scientists(M. Boyko, Y. Zabaldina, A. Mazaraki, S. Melnichenko, I. Smirnov, T. Tkachenko and others) and were tested in the previous works of the authors of this article. Scientific novelty. The communication relationship of tourism service providers with their consumers is dictated by the availability of modern technologies, approaches and methods of forming tourist destinations as components of the smart tourism model. Today, the available theoretical, methodological and practical studies of smart tourism and smart destinations are controversial, given the fact that the scientific literature has not yet formed clearly theoretical constructions that would make it possible to formulate the main components of relationships in a smart destination. In this article, the authors have proposed an algorithm for the formation and development of the capital's smart city, using the example of the Kiev destination. Practical significance. The article raises controversial issues related to the realities of modern life of people in the framework of innovative approaches to the activities of the tourism sector in Ukraine, with its problems, challenges and practical solutions.

Tourism as the main driver and pillar of the socio-economic development of the developed and the underdeveloped countries is a powerful economic segment for economic development. The rapid pace of tourism development has contributed to a number of countries to take strong steps towards development and more serious treatment. The effects of tourism are mainly perceived through the increase in the foreign exchange inflow, improvement in the balance of payments, creation of new jobs and growth of investments. The dynamic growth and development as well as the significance of the tourism industry have contributed to raising marketing to a higher level where through promotional activities tourism will strengthen the role of the tourism market. The promotion in tourism refers to communication between the producer and the consumer, where through communication, information is exchanged that will contribute to increasing the sales of tourism products and services, and significantly influences the choice of the particular tourist product, while providing relevant information about the characteristics of the tourist destination. Through the promotion, consumers receive information about products, services and ideas in order to encourage the interest in using them. The promotion takes an important place in positioning the product on the market and achieving a competitive advantage. It is accomplished through economic propaganda, promotion of sales, public relations, publicity and personal consumption, which are basic forms of promotion. It is particularly important that these activities are coordinated, which will contribute to the formation of awareness among potential probes for the existence of the product / service and create their preferences. This role of promotional activities is conditioned by their mutual relationship with other marketing instruments. If both the product, the price, and the distribution channels successfully perform their role, then the promotional activities will be successful. They can not complement the weaknesses of other elements of the marketing mix. In order for the promotion to be effective, an efficient product / service policy, price, distribution channels, as well as a high level of integration of the overall marketing activities in the marketing plan, as well as the coordination of the company's plans as a whole, is required. In promoting products, services and ideas, a number of methods, tools and activities are used that are aimed at achieving the goals of promotion, and thus the marketing goals. When we talk about promotional activities in tourism, that is, when tourists are offered a certain tourist product, it is necessary to intensify and coordinate cooperation between all participants in the preparation of this product. In the offer of the tourist product, tourists are informed in advance about the trip itself to decide on destinations that would satisfy their tourist needs. Promoting a particular tourist destination encourages people to visit, or to engage in a tripartite journey.
