The territory of the province of Treviso greatly benefits from the proximity of Venice as a tourist attraction, as well as of Veneto's seaside resorts, without forgetting Abano's spa area; as a consequence, tourism in Treviso is characterized by short-term movement, i.e. of a few hours or a few days. In general, the purpose of the tourist journey is mainly related to business. As far as the monthly visitors movement is concerned, the maximum arrivals and total days are concentrated in June, July and September, for both Italian and foreign tourists (total days are meant as the number of consecutive nights spent by the customer in the same tourist accommodation establishment, and arrival is every time the customer takes accommodation in the establishment); vice versa, the least intense months for tourism are December and January. Looking at detailed figures, the total number of nights in the province at 31st December 2000 was 1,280,977 (of which 723,800 by Italians and 557,231 by foreign tourists), total arrivals were 519,582 (of which 294,816 by Italians and 224,766 by foreign tourists).

Regarding the number of tourist accommodation establishments, at 31st December 2000 there were 304 licensed hotels and other tourist accommodation establishments in the whole province. The most prevailing type of establishment is the medium class hotel; on the contrary, camping sites account for only 0.6%.

Italian and foreign tourists mainly select four-star or three-star hotels, and the average length of stay is 2,19 days (foreigners stay longer), whereas the average length of stay in other types of tourist accommodation establishments is 10 days.

The nationality or part of the country where tourist come from varies: Italian tourists mainly come from the northern regions, with an average length of stay of two or three days, whereas for foreign tourists, in addition to the regular Germans, Americans, Austrians, French and British, also Chinese tourists are increasing.

An interesting development in the province is undoubtedly the farm holiday, which focuses on wine and natural produce. Farm holiday establishments in the province of Treviso make up 20.49% of the total in Veneto, testifying to the stron food-and-wine tasting tradition in the province.
