Abstract

The twentieth century is the century of speed, large transformation of civilization, of great discoveries, but also the period that puts more emphasis on return to roots, the unpolluted environment, relaxation, traditional products. Many EU governments recognize that agrotourism and rural tourism are one way that can save agriculture, also  that "in the next 20 years tourism will be part of the economy and rural tourism and agrotourism will become the tourism of future." The reason? Authenticity of rural areas is a quality becoming more demanding in terms of present life. In his development, rural tourism, had periods of growth but also of decline. Certainly that was never endangered. Unknown forms of rural tourism know so far, the large momentum dating at the desire for freedom and lack of rigid programs. Conducted as complementary activities, rural tourism forms not break peasant life balance, not cause loss of existing activities before, but allow the high-grade products obtained and hence their development, together with the development of others.
