INTRODUCTION

1.1     BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Every aspect of life activity maintains and manager an information system. Information system provides comprehensive guideline and knowledge about the activity that guide.

This project work concentrates on computer based tourism information system. Tourism is an aspect of life activity that concerns man and his environment. It is of great economic importance and his life lashing activity. It generates revenue for the state and the country. Some tourist centers are naturally endowed places for human relaxation and for the provision of natural resource.

What excites and entice many tourist today are vast areas with few or no road, mere wilderness areas in their native virginity. Wild places with natural flora and fauna. The wild places with natural flora and fauna. The major ingredients of the industry therefore include natural scope, historical remains wild life reserve and man made facilities. Africa (including Nigeria) is filled with vast areas of natural resources and wild life. In order to conserve scare foreign exchange reserve. Domestic tourism therefore can still be of considerable significance in relation to the national economy.
