In the study, the semi-structured interview form was applied to 21 people from different professions living and working in Zile district in June-July 2020, by using the focus group method and videoconference as it is a pandemic period. The data obtained are presented in tables and graphics. Also, in the light of the findings of the study, SWOT analysis was conducted by the researchers.

Özet

Küresel anlamda turizm sektörünü derinden etkileyen COVID-19 salgını, turist tercihlerinde büyük değişiklikleri beraberinde getirmiştir. Kitle turizminin daha az tercih edildiği, bireysel turizm aktivitelerinin tercihlerde daha fazla öne çıktığı bir döneme girilmiştir. Bu çalışmada bireysel turizme en uygun türlerden biri olan kırsal turizm konu edilmiştir. Bu araştırmanın amacı alternatif turizm türlerinden biri olan kırsal turizmin COVID-19 salgını neticesinde yükselişini Tokat-Zile örneği bazında incelemektir. Araştırmada, yarı yapılandırılmış mülakat formu, odak grup yöntemiyle ve pandemi dönemi olduğu için video-konferans vasıtasıyla, Zile ilçesinde ikamet eden ve çalışan farklı mesleklerden 21 kişiye 2020 yılı Haziran-Temmuz ayları içerisinde araştırmacılar tarafından uygulanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler tablolar ve grafik hâlinde sunulmuştur. Ayrıca çalışmanın bulguları ışığında, araştırmacılar tarafından SWOT analizi yapılmıştır. Buna göre COVID-19 salgını sonrası, Zile’nin kırsalda yapılabilecek turizmaktivitelerine oldukça elverişli olduğu ancak potansiyelini değerlendirmede tanıtım başta olmak üzere, altyapı ve ulaşım konusunda eksiklikleri tespit edilmiştir.
