Therefore, tourism is the key of success of every developing country, such as Honduras, that wants to eliminate poverty and low social income.

The industry does not only benefit the country by creating new jobs and bringing in foreign currency, but also by strengthening national identity, growing education, increasing development and competitiveness, and giving Hondurans a higher standard of living. Trend analysis was utilized in this paper to present the positive realities of tourism in general, while focusing on Honduras as a developing country in Central America and the Caribbean region.
