Tourism Trips, Borough

London Borough level tourism trip estimates (thousands).

The ‘top-down’ nature of the Local Area Tourism Impact (LATI) model (starting with London data) means it is best suited to disaggregate expenditure.  However, tourism trips were also disaggregated for comparative purposes using the estimated proportions of spending by overseas, domestic and day visitors in the boroughs.  Since the trip estimates are derived from data on trips to London they do not account for trips to different boroughs by visitors whilst in London.

Indicitive borough level day visitor/tourist estimates for 2007 were derived from the LDA’s own experimental London level day visitor estimates.  As such the borough level day visitor estimates should be treated with caution and the 2007 day visitor estimates are not comparable with those from previous years.  They are intended only to give a best estimate of the scale of day visitor tourism in each borough from the currently available data.
