The future of room exchange tourism

Since the tourism model of "room exchange tourism" was introduced into our country, it seems to have been unsatisfactory. The main reason lies in the imperfect credit system in our country. Room exchange tourism requires the integrity of both parties as the basis and prerequisite for its existence. Therefore, tourists who want to exchange houses need to meet four conditions: first, they are travel enthusiasts; second, both parties are not sensitive to money; third, they are relatively easy to trust others; fourth, they have a house to exchange and do not expect to make a profit. In fact, house-swap tourism itself is just a primary form of marketization to revitalize existing resources. At present, domestic house-swapping tourism only stays at the lower level of "exchanging goods for goods". This low-level form of exchange cannot go very far. Because the exchange items are not commodities in the true sense, the value of the exchange items is difficult to accurately assess, and the exchange process is complicated and unguaranteed. Even if house-swapping tourism is a spontaneous market behavior, it must follow market rules and the principle of equal exchange. Therefore, the form of house exchange must be supervised by a third-party network platform such as Huyou.com, so as to ensure the rights and interests of house property owners and legalize and standardize the form of house exchange.

So room-swap tourism is still a form of tourism that is promising in China in the future. The key is whether there is a reasonable and legal way to restrict it. It is also likely to bring a new model of travel and vacation in the future.
