Sharing economy in tourism industry

The aim of this article is to present the manifestations of the sharing economy on the tourism market. The sharing economy is one of the relatively new trends in the economy. In the last dozen or so years, it has resulted in the appearance of a significant number of projects on the tourism market, the essence of which is intermediation in the exchange of goods and services between consumers. In particular, this applies to services such as accommodation, catering, transport and guides. The dynamic development of these projects on the tourism market brings with it a number of problems related to the need for appropriate legal regulations. Regardless of these problems, the forecasts for profits from activities within the sharing economy trend are extremely promising.
