Tourism is one of the fastest growing industries in the world that has an extremely diverse impact on the lifestyles of both local populations and modern travelers. At the same time, this modern “phenomenon” plays an important role in the socio-economic and political development of the host country, region, or municipality, offering new employment opportunities for the local population and improving the way of life by providing additional income. A brief description of rural tourism in Bulgaria — its status and development — is made. The arti cle shows that it is a relatively rapidly developing and emerging alternative form of tourism in the country. A positive trend of increasing interest in practicing this type of tourism is observed. The prerequisites for development are indicated — rich tourist resources, shaping or establishing rural areas and villages as tourist destinations. The emphasis is on its positive impact on rural areas, in both underdeveloped and developed areas in the country.
