Purposeful and reasonable state vision of the long-term tourism development strategy determines the success of a country in the world market of tourist services. Many countries have officially approved program documents that clearly outline the main goals and objectives of the state policy in the sphere of tourism, highlighting the resource potential, recreational infrastructure and preferred consumer markets, but there may be no idea of respecting the interests of domestic consumers. The maintenance of local tourism infrastructure is becoming an increasingly important prerequisite for the country’s competitiveness, as mass tourism is now replaced by individual travels. The article is aimed at studying the dependencies between the main macroeconomic indicators of the tourism industry, assessing the efficiency of foreign trade. The correlation-regression and cluster analysis has been used in order to confirm or refute the hypothesis if the effectiveness of the state support of the national tourism industry is dependent on the stable functioning of the domestic tourism market, e.g. stimulation of travels by residents. Based on the main macroeconomic indicators of the tourism industry for 136 countries of the world and overview of some national tourism development program, the analysis output has rejected the direct correlation between the support of the domestic market and export potential of the national tourism industry, but has proved the significance of the inner consumer power during the periods of downturns in the global economy for strengthening the country’s export potential.

The state of development of the tourism industry in Ukraine for the period 2007- 2017 is analyzed. It is established that it does not correspond to the existing potential of tourist resources, and the economic efficiency of the tourism industry is low. One of the main reasons for this situation is the lack of theoretical understanding of the socio-economic nature of tourism as a social phenomenon and its economic significance as a profitable industry. The tourism industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of the world economy. This increases the competitiveness of countries and regions, creating new jobs and improving living standards. It is proved that self-regulation of the tourist market is a necessary condition for its functioning. The dynamics of export-import of tourist services of Ukraine is analyzed. There is a tendency to a slight increase in the cost of services in the last years of the study period. In the interaction “government regulation - market” the primary link is the market, and government regulation is a tool that provides the general conditions of its existence, equalizes the conditions of the start of its subjects and eliminates, if possible, the negative manifestations of the market element. The activities of the tourism industry in Ukraine are analyzed. There is a tendency to reduce the number of enterprises in the tourism industry in recent years of the study period. The rating of tour operators by the number of served tourists and by the reviews of tourists is analyzed. The place and role of the Ukrainian tourism business in the world market of tourist services has been identified. The situation on the world market of tourist services of Ukraine is considered and it is concluded that one of the favorable conditions for tourism development in Ukraine was the adoption of visa-free regime with EU countries, the tourist market gradually recovered after the crisis of 2014, and Ukrainians begin to conquer Europe. 2017 can be called the year of tourism development in Ukraine: the flow increased rapidly, and the number of permits for sale, according to the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine, increased by 36%. Citizens of Ukraine who went abroad formed the group that used the services of tourism entities the most. It was found that the largest number of tourism entities is concentrated in the city of Kyiv and in Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv and Odessa regions.

Topicality. The urgency of developing �green� tourism in Kherson region is growing, since, on the one hand, the region has a high tourism and recreation potential, which is still used inefficiently, and on the other hand, the development of tourism is a crucial factor for the sustainable development of the region and the increase of its competitiveness in the world market. Aim and tasks. The aim of the article is to develop theoretical principles and practical and applied proposals that should substantiate the feasibility of green tourism development in Ukraine and its regions, and study the problems that arise during the organization of �green� tourism, taking into consideration international experience in this field. Research results. �Green� economy is a challenge to inefficient use of resources. The use of the principles of "green" economy will not only allow achieving sustainable development of the regions and the country, but also ensure social justice as well as the use of natural competitive advantages to enter and consolidate in foreign markets. According to UNEP, among the priority areas of development are tourism activities. "Green" / rural tourism is the type of entrepreneurial activity in providing comprehensive tourist services in rural areas, using the private property of rural residents, without significant environmental impact on the environment. "Green" tourism has the following varieties: rural tourism, recreational tourism, ecotourism. The experience of European countries has shown that with proper government support and coordination of efforts of the state and local communities, �green� tourism can be a highly profitable activity. The effect of "green" tourism is complex; it is expressed through the economic, social and environmental component. The article shows that Ukraine and its regions have a huge tourist potential. In recent years, "green" tourism has been successfully developing and is popular among the population of the country. The format and scope of "green" tourism in Ukraine have their own national characteristics: it is mainly a family business; the average "green" holiday duration is from 1 to 2 days, which allows it to claim its own competitive position in the international market. At the same time, a number of shortcomings in the organization of "green" business have been identified. Conclusion. Kherson Region has a number of advantages, the full use of which is able to ensure sustainable economic development, the competitiveness of the region and the presence in the world market of tourist services. There are a number of factors that negatively affect the state of the tourism industry: low level of tourist infrastructure, insufficient development of the regulatory framework, economic and political instability, a limited range of tourist services offered, no concept of tourism development in the region as a promising tourist destination, imperfect advertising of regional tourist centers, etc. To overcome these problems it is expedient to use a cluster approach to the organization of "green" tourism.

Rural tourism contributes to development of regional tourism, but there is a certain range of problems that impede the attractiveness of this type of tourism for foreign tourists. In the order to gain a competitive advantage, Latvian regions need to step up their efforts to form an unique tourist offers.
