The relationship between tourism and logistics is basically focused on 
provisioning, supply and provision activities, activities that are reflected in the 
transportation of passengers, food, accommodation and material support to tourism 
programs, being fundamental to consider them when planning and organize a tourist 
activity or event. The elements of logistics can be organized into a single system 
adapted to each event, allowing the order and supply of consumers, products and 
facilities, seeking to act in favor of the environment, communication and its needs. 
Tourism activity has three well-defined phases: a beginning, a development and an end. 
Each of these phases has its particularities, where logistics intervenes in each case in 
particular. 
Both logistics and tourism are based on the same premise: the generation of 
promises materialized in customer satisfaction, where the service must be at the right 
time, in the right place and in the right quality. The development of tourism involves 
understanding and relating both disciplines by the tourist entrepreneur. The deep 
knowledge of each one of the logistic processes in search of its perfection, culminates in 
the organizational strategy and in the consequent competitive advantage. 
With the refinement and marginalization of social division of labor, domestic and 
foreign scholars gradually realize the importance of logistics activities in tourism 
activities and the demand for logistics in tourism industry, therefore, a highly cross 
noun―“tourism logistics” is put forward. Although there isn’
t a unified understanding 
about the concept of tourism logistics currently, its definitions worthy for reference 
have been come up at home and abroad. 
The three tourism factors define the border of economic activities in tourism 
industry, namely, on the basis of certain tourism resources, all the economic behaviors 
involved in the tourists’ tourism behaviors are based on tourists’ pursuit of personal 
values and spiritual pleasure. At the same time, tourism service providers carry out the 
appropriate economic preparatory work to support and meet the travel needs of tourists. 
Tourism has been developing intensively in recent decades due to various social 
and economic trends. Rural tourism, which includes various tourist activities in rural 
areas (tourism in households, ecotourism, recreational, adventure, sports, health, artistic, 
heritage tourism, etc.) is also gaining in importance. The main instrument for the 
efficient realization of flows of people, goods and information in the Rural Tourism 
Supply Chain (RTSC) and increasing the competitiveness of tourism products is 
logistics. Logistics provides a material and a nonmaterial basis for rural tourism 
services. As suppliers of raw materials and finished products to other actors, but also as 
creators of their own tourism offer, households are significant actors in the supply chain 
and generators of logistics flows in rural tourism. 
Given the services performed by logisticians, the main fields of logistics can be 
broken down as follows:
