Contemporary directions of Tourism Policy in Poland and Ukraine

The objective of this research is to thoroughly investigate the regional relation policy between Ukraine and Poland and to improve the development process of tourism policy and of cross-border cooperation between these regions. The latest tourism’ aspects and basic legal documents of Poland and Ukraine’ regional policy have been analysed and investigated. The main regional differences for the last eight years in the accommodation of foreign tourists in Poland have been highlighted. A new form of rural tourism in Ukraine is gastro-tourism. In recent years, various forms of tourism have been rapidly developing in Poland, including culinary tourism. There are lots of culinary trails, “festivals of flavour” and blogs dealing with food. With its healthy and tasty food, Poland could pursue this kind of tourism as well. In fact, gastro-tourism is a young but promising direction of tourism, which is worth a separate discussion. Gastronomy tourism has slowly started to develop in Ukraine.
